ஆண்
: பொய் சொல்ல கூடாது காதலி
பொய் சொன்னாலும் நீயே என் காதலி
பொய் சொல்ல கூடாது காதலி
பொய் சொன்னாலும் நீயே என் காதலி
You shouldn't tell lies, my lover
Even if you tell lies, you are still my lover
You shouldn't tell lies, my lover...
Even if you tell lies, you are still my lover
கண்களால் கண்களில்
தாயம் ஆடினாய்
கைகளால் கைகளில்
ரேகை மாற்றினாய்
With your eyes, you played dice inside my eyes
With your hands, you changed the destiny lines on my hands
You recited a lie
Oh my, you escaped
To close my eyes and search for you
You tasted sweet throughout my dreams
பொய் ஒன்றை ஒப்பித்தாய்
ஐய்யயோ தப்பித்தாய்
கண் மூடி தேடத்தான்
கனவெங்கும் தித்தித்தாய்
You shouldn't tell lies, my lover
Even if you tell lies, you are still my lover
பொய் சொல்ல கூடாது காதலி
பொய் சொன்னாலும் நீயே என் காதலி
Blooming with beautiful lies
I saw a flower plant
Secretly digging deep into my soul
I grafted a cutting of love
அழகிய பொய்கள் பூக்கும்
பூச்செடி கண்டேன்
ரகசியமாக உயிரை தோண்டி
பதியம் போட்டு கொண்டேன்
The moment your eyes saw me
They devoured me completely, my girl
Leaving me behind all alone
My shadow walked away, my girl
கண்டவுடன் என்னையே
தின்றதடி விழியே
என்னை விட்டு தனியே
சென்றதடி நிழலே
Oh scorching flame of my eyes
Oh crop of stars
Come with wings attached, oh moon
You recited a lie
Oh my, you escaped
To close my eyes and search for you
You tasted sweet throughout my dreams
அடி சுட்டும் விழி சுடரே
நக்ஷத்திர பயிரே
ரெக்கை கட்டி வா நிலவே
You shouldn't tell lies, my lover
Even if you tell lies, you are still my lover
பொய் ஒன்றை ஒப்பித்தாய்
ஐய்யயோ தப்பித்தாய்
கண் மூடி தேடத்தான்
கனவெங்கும் தித்தித்தாய்
What is called rain
Is it just a single drop, my darling?
Are you a single raindrop or ten million oceans?
Tell me the truth, my girl
பொய் சொல்ல கூடாது காதலி
பொய் சொன்னாலும் நீயே என் காதலி
In the middle of your dimples
I got trapped, my beautiful one
Through the strands of hair on your forehead
I escaped and came out
ஓரு மழை என்பது
ஒரு துளி தானா கண்ணே
நீ ஒற்றை துளியா கோடிக் கடலா
உண்மை சொல்லடி பெண்ணே
Oh storm kept hidden inside
Oh fluttering pride
Shed your shyness and step outside
You commanded me to stop
You entered inside my heart and punished me
Just to beg you to speak
You deceived me by staying silent
கன்னகுழி நடுவே
சிக்கி கொண்டேன் அழகே
நெற்றி முடி வழியே
தப்பி வந்தேன் வெளியே
You shouldn't tell lies, my lover
Even if you tell lies, you are still my lover
அடி பொத்தி வைத்த புயலே
தத்தளிக்கும் திமிரே
வெட்கம் விட்டு வா வெளியே
With your eyes, you played dice inside my eyes
With your hands, you changed the destiny lines on my hands
You recited a lie
Oh my, you escaped
To close my eyes and search for you
You tasted sweet throughout my dreams
நில் என்று கண்டிதாய்
உள் சென்று தண்டிதாய்
சொல் என்று கெஞ்சதான்
சொல்லாமல் வஞ்சித்தாய்
பொய் சொல்ல கூடாது காதலி
பொய் சொன்னாலும் நீயே என் காதலி
கண்களால் கண்களில்
தாயம் ஆடினாய்
கைகளால் கைகளில்
ரேகை மாற்றினாய்
பொய் ஒன்றை ஒப்பித்தாய்
ஐய்யயோ தப்பித்தாய்
கண் மூடி தேடத்தான்
கனவெங்கும் தித்தித்தாய்

Tell me the truth, my girl
Kannakuzhi naduvae
In the middle of your dimples
Sikkikonden azhagae
I got trapped, my beautiful one

Shed your shyness and step outside
Nil endru kandiththaai
You commanded me to stop
Ul sendru dhandithaai
You entered inside my heart and punished me

Just to beg you to speak
Sollaamal vanjithaai
You deceived me by staying silent
