சஞ்சாரம் செய்யும் கண்கள்
என் மேலே சாயும் சாயும்
அதனாலே தேகம் எங்கும்
தீக்காயம்
Hey, wandering eyes
Leaning, leaning upon me
Because of that, my body
Is filled with wounds of fire
தொடு தொடுவென
நீளும் கைகள்
ஒன்றை ஒன்று பற்றிக்கொள்ளும்
இரு கைகளின் ரேகைகளும்
இடம் மாறும்
Saying, 'Touch me, touch me'
Hands reaching out
Holding onto each other
The palm lines of both hands
Will swap their places
இமைகளின் மீது
இமைகளை வைத்து
விழியால் ஒரு
வழி அமைப்போம்
Upon the eyelids
Placing eyelids
Let us pave a path through our eyes
Female: The dreams of both
Blending seamlessly together
Let us make the night sleep within them, oo oo oo
இருவரி கனவும்
இரண்டற கலக்கும்
இரவை அதில்
உறங்க வைப்போம்.......
Hey, wandering eyes
Leaning, leaning upon me
Because of that, my body
Is filled with wounds of fire
சஞ்சாரம் செய்யும் கண்கள்
என் மேலே சாயும் சாயும்
அதனாலே தேகம் எங்கும்
தீக்காயம்
Saying, 'Touch me, touch me'
Hands reaching out
Holding onto each other
The palm lines of both hands
Will swap their places
ஹா....தொடு தொடுவென
நீளும் கைகள்
ஒன்றை ஒன்று பற்றிக்கொள்ளும்
இரு கைகளின் ரேகைகளும்
இடம் மாறும்.......
Yesterday without you
I spent time alone
Because you came in my dream
My soul survived just a bit...ae...ae...
நேற்றும் நீயின்றி
தனியாய் கழித்தேனே ஏ ஏ.....
நீ கனவில் வந்ததனால்
உயிர் கொஞ்சம் பிழைதேனே ஏ ஏ.....
I too, in separation, in separation
Was suffering terribly
This wretched distance obstructs us
நானும் பிரிவில்
பிரிவில் தவிதேன்
வாழும் தூரம் தடுகிறதே
Borrowing the wings, the wings
Of a bird
My heart yearns to fly to you
பறவையின் சிறகை
சிறகை கடன் வாங்கி
பறந்து வரவே துடிகிறதே
While the river flows, you are there
And I stand here helplessly
Will not our gazes acting as boats
Unite us together?
நதி ஓடிட நீ அங்கே
நான் இங்கே
என நின்று நின்று விடு
படகாகிவிடும் பார்வைகள்
ஒன்றாய் சேர்க்காதோ
These uncontainable floods, floods
Crossing over the river banks
Mere gazes won't suffice
Will the boat sink? hoo ooo
அடங்காதேனி
வெள்ளங்கள் வெள்ளங்கள்
கரை தாண்டி தாண்டி விட
வெறும் பார்வைகள் போததே
படகே மூழ்காதோ...ஓ...
Hey, wandering eyes
Hoo ooo ooo
Hoohooo ooo
Hoo ooo ooo
Hoohooo ooo
ஹே சஞ்சாரம் செய்யும் கண்கள்
ஓஒ....ஓஒ....ஒ......ஓஓஹோ
ஓஒ....ஓஒ....ஒ....ஓஓஹோ
ஓஒ....ஓஒ....ஒ.....ஓஓஹோ
Upon the eyelids
Placing eyelids
Let us pave a path through our eyes
Female: The dreams of both
Blending seamlessly together
Let us make the night sleep within them
இமைகளின் மீது
இமைகளை வைத்து
விழியால் ஒரு

Without anger expressing itself oo oo oo
Love cannot truly grow
Even if the waves leap violently
Their identity remains the sea itself
இருவரி கனவும்
இரண்டற கலக்கும்
இரவை அதில்
உறங்க வைப்போம்.......
For you, into dew
Transforming into dew
The moment I look at you, I shall melt away
கோபம் கொள்ளமல்
காதல் வளராதே
அலை சீறி பாய்ந்தாலும்
அடையாளம் கடல்தானே...ஏ.....
Even if seven seas and mountains
Stand as barriers
I will search and reach you
உனக்கென பனியாய்
பனியாய் உருமாறி பார்த்த
நொடியில் உருகிடுவேன்
Somewhere in the corner of my mind
Your fragrance lingers
Even coming from a great distance
I sensed your presence
ஏழு கடலும்
மலையும் தடுதாலும்
தேடி வருவேன்
உனை அடைவேன்
Even if you tell me to go, go away
Leaving you henceforth
Without moving even an inch away
I will stand right by your side
மனதோரதில் எங்கேயோ
எங்கேயோ உன் வாசம் தாங்கிவிட
தொலை தூரதில் வந்தாலும்
உன்னை உணர்ந்தேனே
Hey, wandering eyes
Leaning, leaning upon me
Because of that, my body
Is filled with wounds of fire
போ போவென சொன்னலும்
சொன்னலும்
உனை விட்டு விட்டு இனி
ஓர் அங்குலம் நகராமல்
பக்கம் நிற்பேனே....ஏ
Saying, 'Touch me, touch me'
Hands reaching out
Holding onto each other
The palm lines of both hands
Will swap their places
சஞ்சாரம் செய்யும் கண்கள்
என் மேலே சாயும் சாயும்
அதனாலே தேகம் எங்கும்

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song, penned by lyricist Thamarai, captures the deep passion, longing, and intimate connection between two lovers. It vividly describes the intense physical and emotional longing caused by distance, comparing their gazes to boats and their yearning to overflowing rivers. The lovers express how their dreams and identities merge seamlessly, transcending barriers like distance, mountains, and seas.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Adukkuthodar (Repetition for emphasis)
“Enmelae saayum saayum”
Words like 'saayum saayum', 'thodu thodu', and 'pirivil pirivil' are repeated sequentially to intensify the emotional and sensory impact.
Metaphor (Uruvagaim)
“Padagaagidum paarvaigal”
The line compares gazes to boats ('Padagaagidum paarvaigal') that help navigate the ocean of separation.
Hyperbole (Uyarvu Navortchi)
“Iru kaigalin reagaigalum idam maarum”
The idea that palm lines swap places upon holding hands ('Iru kaigalin reagaigalum idam maarum') exaggerates intimacy to highlight absolute oneness.
