சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது சாய்ந்து
சாய்ந்து நீ பாா்க்கும்போது
அடடா ஹே.....
When you lean in and look at me
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது அடடா
ஹே..... சோ்ந்து சோ்ந்து
நிழல் போகும்போது அடடா
ஹே விழியோடு விழி பேச
விரலோடு விரல் பேச அடடா
வேறு என்ன பேச
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
When our shadows walk together
Oh my, hey...
As eyes speak with eyes
As fingers speak with fingers
Oh my, what else is left to speak?
சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது அடடா
ஹே..... சோ்ந்து சோ்ந்து
நிழல் போகும்போது
அடடா ஹே
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
When our shadows walk together
Oh my, hey...
என் தாயை
போல ஒரு பெண்ணை
தேடி உன்னை கண்டு
கொண்டேன்
Searching for a woman similar to my mother
I found you...
Ohoo... a man who is both a friend and like my father
I found him...
Your beautiful rice-flour rangoli design...
My doorstep that yearns for it...
Time itself will come and draw the patterns...
Just looking into your eyes takes me back to past lives...
There, you and I are united as one...
ஒஹோ.. என்
தந்தை தோழன் ஒன்றான
ஆணை நான் கண்டு கொண்டேன்
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
When our shadows walk together
Oh my, hey...
அழகான உந்தன்
மாகோலம் அதை கேட்கும்
எந்தன் வாசல்
In the beauty of how you speak waving your hands in the air,
Even a lie turns into truth...
The fragrance of your hair wafting on my chest,
Does inexplicable things to me...
Your footsteps entering my home... this alone is enough forever...
Why keep any distance further and further...
Without anyone noticing, without leaving any traces...
I will kill you with love...
காலம் வந்து
வந்து கோலமிடும்
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
When our shadows walk together
Oh my, hey...
As eyes speak with eyes
As fingers speak with fingers
Oh my, what else is left to speak?
உன் கண்ணை
பாா்த்தாலே.. முன்
ஜென்மம் போவேனே
அங்கே நீயும் நானும்
நாம்
When you lean in and look at me
Oh my, hey...
When our shadows walk together
Oh my, hey...
சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது அடடா
ஹே..... சோ்ந்து சோ்ந்து
நிழல் போகும்போது
அடடா ஹே
கை வீசி காற்றில்
நீ பேசும் அழகில் மெய்யாகும்
பொய்யும்
என் மாா்பில்
வீசும் உன் கூந்தல்
வாசம் ஏதேதோ செய்யும்
என் வீட்டில்
வரும் உன் பாதம்
எந்நாளும் இது போதும்
இன்னும் இன்னும்
என்ன தொலை தூரத்தில்
ஆள் யாரும்
பாா்க்காமல் தடயங்கள்
இல்லாமல் அன்பால்
உன்னை நானும் கொள்வேன்
சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது அடடா
ஹே..... சோ்ந்து சோ்ந்து
நிழல் போகும்போது அடடா
ஹே விழியோடு விழி பேச
விரலோடு விரல் பேச அடடா
வேறு என்ன பேச
சாய்ந்து சாய்ந்து
நீ பாா்க்கும்போது அடடா
ஹே..... சோ்ந்து சோ்ந்து
நிழல் போகும்போது
அடடா ஹே
