புது காதல் காலம் இது
இருவர் வாழும் உலக இது
நீ நான் என்பதில்
பொருள் படவில்லை ஏனோ....
This is the season of new love
This is a world where two people live
In saying 'you' and 'I'
Why does it make no sense anymore...
புது தேடல் படலம் இது
தேகம் தேயும் தருணம் இது
கரைவதும் நுரைவதும்
கண் முன் நிகலுது ஏனோ.....
This is a chapter of new searching
This is the moment the body melts away
Melting and freezing
Why is it happening right before my eyes...
கொடு உனையே
நீ எடுடா எனைத்தானே
நீ தொட்டால் பனி பாறை போலே
தேகம் கரையும் மாயம் என்ன
Give yourself away
Take me for yourself
When you touch, like an iceberg
What is this magic that melts the body?
கொடு எனையே
நான் உந்தன் துணைதானே
உன் வெட்கம் என்னை
வேட்டையாடி வேட்டையாடி விடுகிறதே
ஓ....ஓ.......
Touch me
I am indeed your companion
Your shyness
Hunts me down continuously
Hoo ooo hoo ooo
புது காதல் காலம் இது
இருவர் வாழும் உலக இது
நீ நான் என்பதில்
பொருள் படவில்லை ஏனோ......
This is the season of new love
This is a world where two people live
In saying 'you' and 'I'
Why does it make no sense anymore...
புது தேடல் படலம் இது
தேகம் தேயும் தருணம் இது
கரைவதும் நுரைவதும்
கண் முன் நிகலுது ஏனோ.....
In the middle of a snow mountain
As if fallen
I fell right into your lap
பனிமலை நடுவில்
விழுந்தது போலே
உன் மடி இடையில் விழுந்தேன்
At the tips of the branches
Like flowers
I bloomed upon your branch
கிளைகளின் நுனியில்
மலர்களை போலே
உன் கிளை மேலே வளர்ந்தேன்
All the parts that hide
Are asking for liberation
Release them quickly
Let them bloom as they desire
மறைக்கின்ற பாகம் எல்லாம்
விடுதலை கேட்குதே
விடு விடு வேகமாக
விருப்பம் போல மலரட்டும்
With every touch, all over the body
Drops of honey secrete
Quickly and eagerly
Let it secrete and flow continuously
தொட தொட தேகமெல்லாம்
தேன்துளி சுரக்குதே
தொடு தொடு வேகமாக
சுரந்து வழிந்து ஓடட்டும்
Come close, for I
Am a fragrant tree
For you to faint in my shade
There is medicine, you know
வா அருகே
நான் வாசனை மரம் தானே
என் நிழலில் நீ மயங்கி கொள்ள
மருத்துவம் இருக்கு
நீ அறிவாய்
With a rain of honey
You drenched me
What is that, tell me, tell me
Tell me, for I do not know
தேன் மழையால்
நீ நனைத்தாய் எனயே
அட ஏதோ நீ சொல்லு
சொல்லு சொல்லு சொல்லு
நான் அறியேன்
Oh, my hero of love
Oh, pure one without adulteration
Relishing me
Why do you torment me?
என் காதல் நாயகனே
கலப்படம் அற்ற தூயவனே
என்னை ரசித்து
இம்சை செய்தது ஏன்டா
Oh, my motherland of love
Oh, weapon fashioned by Manmatha
Drinking my life force
Why do you quench your thirst?
என் காதல் தாயகமே
காமன் செய்த ஆயுதமே
உயிரை குடித்து
தாகம் தீர்ப்பது ஏணன்டி
Crawling along the body
Entering through the soul
Did you come to conduct research?
உடல் வழி ஊர்ந்து
உயிர் வழி புகுந்து
ஆய்வுகள் செய்ய வந்தாயோ
Opening up my body
Filling up inside it
Did you come to perform many penances?
என்னுடல் திறந்து
நீ அதில் நிறைந்து
தவம் பல செய்திட வந்தாயோ
Marks are needed all over the body
Will your fingernails draw them?
Every place touched by fingers
Is erupting like a volcano
உடல் எங்கும் ரேகை வேண்டும்
உன் நகம் வரையுமோ
விரல் படும் பாகம் எல்லாம்
வெடிக்குதே எரிமலை
There is no scent of youth
In times of distress
Asking to commit violence
My goddess of love incites me
வாலிப வாசமில்லை
வாட்டிடும் பொழுதிலே
வன்முறை செய்ய சொல்லி
என் காதல் தேவி
Oh, storm
Oh, scorching heat that tortures me
Striking me like lightning first
Why did you arrest me, tell me
ஏ புயலே
என்னை வதைக்கும் வெயிலே
இடி போலே என்னை தாக்கி
முதலில் கைது செய்தாய் ஏன்
சொல்வாய்
Inside the flower
Shall I start the battle?
You, guide me today slowly, slowly
Slowly, slowly lead the way, hoo oo ooo
பூ உள்ளே
நான் போரை தொடங்கிடவா
நீ அதனை இன்று மெல்ல
மெல்ல மெல்ல மெல்ல வழி
நடத்து ஓ.......ஓ.....
