ஏதேதோ ஆசை நெஞ்சுல
சொல்லத்தான் தெரியல
உன்னால கண்ணு தூங்கல
எதுக்குன்னு புரியல
Various desires fill my heart
I do not know how to express them
Because of you, my eyes cannot sleep
I do not understand why
ஒலகமே நமக்குத்தான்
நீ கூட இருந்துட்டா
சொர்க்கமே தொறக்குதா
உன் கூட நடந்துட்டா
The entire world belongs to us
If you stay by my side
Does heaven open up
When I walk with you?
உசுரெல்லாம் இனிக்குதா
உன் தோளில் சாஞ்சிட்டா
சிறகுதா முளைக்குதா
உன் கைய பிடிச்சிட்டா
Does my whole soul taste sweet
When I lean on your shoulder?
Do wings sprout on me
When I hold your hand?
ஒரு வார்த்தைக்கூட
இங்கு சொல்ல தேவை இல்ல
காதல் இதுதான்
Not even a single word
Needs to be spoken here
This is true love
பிரியாத என்ன
எப்போதும் நீதான் நெனைப்புல
கொறையாமா உன்ன
நெஞ்சோடு சேர்க்க மறக்கல
Do not separate from me
You are always in my thoughts
Without fading away
I have not forgotten to hold you close to my heart
பிரியாத என்ன
எப்போதும் நீதான் நெனைப்புல
கொறையாமா உன்ன
நெஞ்சோடு சேர்க்க மறக்கல
Do not separate from me
You are always in my thoughts
Without fading away
I have not forgotten to hold you close to my heart
கையால நானும்
மேகத்த தட்டுறவன்
நீ மட்டும் பார்த்த....
கை கட்டி நிக்குறவன்
With my own hands
I am one who touches the clouds
Yet if you merely look at me
I stand meekly with folded arms
என் பேர நானும்
எப்போதும் சொன்னது இல்ல
உன் பேர சேர்த்து
சொல்லாத நாளும் இல்ல
My own name
I have never spoken often
Yet including your name
There is no day I haven't spoken
ஈரேழு ஜென்மம் தாண்டி
ஒன்ன தோளில் தாங்கனும்
தள்ளாடும் போதும்
கண்ணு ரெண்டும் ஒன்ன தேடனும்
Transcending seven plus seven births
I want to hold you on my shoulders
Female: Even when I falter in old age
Both my eyes should look for you
உயிர் விட்டு போகும்
அந்த நொடியில் உன் உருவம்
முன்னாள் வரணும்
When life leaves my body
In that final moment, your face
Must appear before me
பிரியாத என்ன
எப்போதும் நீதான் நெனைப்புல
கொறையாமா உன்ன
நெஞ்சோடு சேர்க்க மறக்கல
Do not separate from me
You are always in my thoughts
Without fading away
I have not forgotten to hold you close to my heart
பிரியாத என்ன
எப்போதும் நீதான் நெனைப்புல
கொறையாமா உன்ன
நெஞ்சோடு சேர்க்க மறக்கல
Various desires fill my heart
I do not know how to express them
Because of you, my eyes cannot sleep
I do not understand why
I do not understand why
ஏதேதோ ஆசை நெஞ்சுல
சொல்லத்தான் தெரியல
உன்னால கண்ணு தூங்கல
எதுக்குன்னு புரியல
எதுக்குன்னு புரியல
Edhedho aasai nenjula
Various desires fill my heart
Solla thaan theriyala

Unnaala kannu thoongala
