பூங்குயிலே பார்வையிலே என்னை இழுக்காதே
புது பாட்டு ஒன்னு பாடிகிட்டு பக்கம் நெருங்காதே
Oh flower cuckoo, do not entice me with your glance
Singing a new song, do not come close to my side
.........................

பூங்குயிலே பார்வையிலே என்னை இழுக்குதே
புது பாட்டு ஒன்னு பாடிகிட்டு பக்கம் நெருங்காதே
Oh flower cuckoo, do not entice me with your glance
Singing a new song, do not come close to my side
என் செல்லம் நீ தானே
நான் கொஞ்சி கொஞ்சி மகிழா
அடி உன் செல்லம் நான்தானே
நீ கெஞ்சி கெஞ்சி அணைக்க
அடி அழகான கோவத்தில்
கோவை பழம் ஆனாய்
You are my darling, aren't you?
For me to pamper and cherish you
Hey, am I not your darling?
For you to plead and embrace me
Hey, in your beautiful anger
You turned red like a ivy gourd fruit
என் ஆனந்தமே அற்புதமே
உன் பொற்பதம் நான் பணிந்தேன்
உந்தன் அங்கம் எல்லாம் வாசனையாய்
எப்போதும் நான் இருப்பேன்
My bliss, my wonder!
I bow down to your golden feet
Like a fragrance across your whole body
I will always reside
விளையாத பயிருக்கு இங்கே
மண் அழுதது இல்லே
விலை மண்ணு எந்த விதையும்
தேடி விழ வில்லை
For a crop that hasn't grown here
The soil has not shed tears
Fertile soil does not search
For seeds to fall into it
கலையாத அன்பில் இருந்தால்
பூத்திடுமே முல்லை
வெகு நேரம் காத்திருக்க தான்
உடம்புக்குள் தொல்லை
If love remains undiminished
The wild jasmine will bloom
Waiting for a long time
Is a strain on the body inside
பூ உடம்பே பொன் உடம்பே
தப்புக்கு மன்னிப்பு தா தா
சந்தனமாய் நான் இருப்பேன்
அள்ளி பூசி கொள்ள வா வா
Oh flower body, oh golden body
Forgive my fault, give me forgiveness
I will remain as sandalwood
Come, scoop me up and smear me on yourself
சாக்கு போக்கு க்காக
தினமும் ஒரு கதை
சொல்ல வேணாம் மருத மாமா
கட்டி கரும்புக்காரா
சுட்டி பயல் வேணும்
கொஞ்சம் புரிஞ்சிக்க மாமா
Just as an excuse
Every day a new story
No need to tell, uncle Marudhu
Sweet like a block of sugarcane
I need a naughty boy
Understand a little bit, uncle
ஏ கதவ நீ சாத்தடி
போர்வைய போத்தடி
Hey, shut the door
Cover up with the blanket
பூங்குயிலே பார்வையிலே என்னை இழுக்குதே
புது பாட்டு ஒன்னு பாடிகிட்டு பக்கம் நெருங்காதே
Oh flower cuckoo, do not entice me with your glance
Singing a new song, do not come close to my side

துடிப்பான கருப்பு சிங்கத்த
கட்டிகிட்ட மயிலு
சேலகுள்ள வச்சிருக்குற உங்களுக்கு ரயிலு
The peacock that wedded
An energetic black lion
There is a train waiting inside your saree for you
தென்றலே இவன் உனக்கு மட்டும்
கட்டுப்பட்டு புயலு
கண்ணிலே என்ன வெச்சு கொள்ளடி
கொல்லி மல குயிலு
This breeze, only for you
Is a controlled storm
Kill me by keeping me inside your eyes
Oh cuckoo bird of Kolli Hills!
கட்டுக்குள்ள வாழ்வதையே
கம்பீரமா சொல்ல வேணாம்
கட்டியவ நோவுவத
கண்டுக்காம விட வேணா
Living inside the forest
No need to speak of it grandly
When your wedded wife suffers in pain
Do not ignore her without caring
அடி தேக்கு சந்தனத்த
காவல் காப்பாத்து இங்கே
யாருக்கடி கொம்பு தானே
உன்னபோல என்னபோல
புருஷன் பொஞ்சாதிக்கு தானே
Hey, teak and sandalwood
Are guarded here under watch
For whom, oh honeycomb on the branch?
For husband and wife
Just like you and me
கட்டில போடுங்க
தொட்டில தேடுங்க
Set up the bed
Look for the cradle next
பூங்குயிலே பார்வையிலே என்னை இழுக்குதே
புது பாட்டு ஒன்னு பாடிகிட்டு பக்கம் நெருங்காதே
Oh flower cuckoo, do not entice me with your glance
Singing a new song, do not come close to my side
உன் செல்லம் நான் தானே
நான் கொஞ்சி கொஞ்சி மகிழா
அடி என் செல்லம் நீதானே
நீங்க கெஞ்சி கெஞ்சி அணைக்க
அடி அழகான கோவத்தில்
கோவை பழம் ஆனாய்
I am your darling, aren't I?
Female: For me to pamper and cherish
Male: Hey, you are my darling
