.......................
It began face-to-face in opposition
It continues as a puzzle following a puzzle
வகுப்பற பாடமெல்லாம்
வகுப்புல விட்டுபுட்டு
படிக்கிது படிக்கிது
வேறவொரு படிப்பு
It was a fierce struggle and competition
I watched and absorbed it, and it stuck with me
புடிச்சிருக்கா

Desiring the touch of two hearts
Even the fingers long for it
எதிருக்கு எதிரா தொடங்கியது
புதிருக்கு புதிரா தொடர்கிறது
Lala la laala
போட்டிக்கி போட்டி அடிபுடிதான்
பாத்து நான் தின்னேன் ஒட்டிக்கிடுச்சு
Can a wild cuckoo be captured within the eyes?
இரண்டு மனங்களின் பரிசம் வேண்டுமென
விரல்களும் விரும்புதே
Rules and regulations should halt
Only inside the home
லலல லா லா
Do you like it?
Female: I liked it / It caught on
Male: Leaving studies behind...
Female: It learned / It caught on
கண்ணுக்குள் சிக்குமா காட்டுக்குயில்
Do you like it?

சட்ட திட்டம் நிற்க வேண்டும்
வீட்டுக்குள்ளே மட்டும்
Let the bouncing and teasing happen
Let the coaxing and overcoming continue
புடிச்சிருக்கா
புடிச்சிக்கிச்சு
படிப்பவிட்டு
படிச்சிக்கிச்சு
Let the fun and jumping happen within bounds
Let the dance and celebrations flourish
வகுப்பற பாடமெல்லாம்
வகுப்புல விட்டுபுட்டு
படிக்கிது படிக்கிது
வேறவொரு படிப்பு
Leaving the nest, two birds
Are cooing and cuddling in solitude
புடிச்சிருக்கா

Lala la laala
துள்ளலும் கிள்ளலும் நடக்கட்டுமே
கொஞ்சலும் மிஞ்சலும் தொடருட்டுமே
The agonizing yearning is unbearable
Female: The surrounding environment does not suit at all
காட்டுக்குள் கூட்டமும் குதிக்கட்டுமே
ஆட்டமும் பாட்டமும் களைகட்டுமே
Do you like it?
Female: I liked it / It caught on
Male: Leaving studies behind...
Female: It learned / It caught on
கூட்டை விட்டு இரு பறவை
தனிமையில் குலவுதே காெஞ்சுதே
லலல லா லா
தவிக்கிற தவிப்பும் தாளவில்லை
சுற்றுச்சூழல் சுத்தமாக ஒத்துப்போகவில்லை
புடிச்சிருக்கா
புடிச்சிக்கிச்சு
படிப்பவிட்டு
படிச்சிக்கிச்சு
