| Sengamalam unthan thanga nira paatham | Red lotus-like golden-colored feet of yours, |
| Pattathilae boomi pookkuthammaa | The earth blooms like silk, dear one. |
| Poo magale unthan poo mugaththai kandu | Oh flower-like girl, seeing your flower-like face, |
| Ullam engum inbam ponguthammaa | Joy overflows everywhere in my heart, dear one. |
| Chorus | |
| Unnai paarkkum neram | The moment I look at you, |
| Kannin oram siru eeramammaa | There is a gentle tear in the corner of my eyes, dear one. |
| Ennam ellaam vannam kondu | All my thoughts take on colors, |
| Vaanavillaai indru maaruthammaa | And turn into a rainbow today, dear one. |
| Chorus | |
| Pothum idhu pothum | This is enough, this is enough, |
| Peraanantham neethanammaa | You are supreme bliss itself, dear one. |
செங்கமலம் உந்தன் தங்க நிற பாதம்
பட்டத்திலே பூமி பூக்குதம்மா
பூ மகளே உந்தன் பூ முகத்தை கண்டு
உள்ளம் எங்கும் இன்பம் பொங்குதம்மா
Red lotus-like golden-colored feet of yours,
The earth blooms like silk, dear one.
Oh flower-like girl, seeing your flower-like face,
Joy overflows everywhere in my heart, dear one.
உன்னை பார்க்கும் நேரம்
கண்ணின் ஓரம் சிறு ஈரம்மம்மா
எண்ணம் எல்லாம் வண்ணம் கொண்டு
வானவில்லாய் இன்று மாறுதம்மா
The moment I look at you,
There is a gentle tear in the corner of my eyes, dear one.
All my thoughts take on colors,
And turn into a rainbow today, dear one.
போதும் இது போதும்
பேரானந்தாம் நீதானம்மா
This is enough, this is enough,
You are supreme bliss itself, dear one.
Sengamalam unthan thanga nira paatham
Red lotus-like golden-colored feet of yours,
Pattathilae boomi pookkuthammaa
The earth blooms like silk, dear one.
Poo magale unthan poo mugaththai kandu
Oh flower-like girl, seeing your flower-like face,
Ullam engum inbam ponguthammaa
Joy overflows everywhere in my heart, dear one.
Unnai paarkkum neram
The moment I look at you,
Kannin oram siru eeramammaa
There is a gentle tear in the corner of my eyes, dear one.
Ennam ellaam vannam kondu
All my thoughts take on colors,
Vaanavillaai indru maaruthammaa
And turn into a rainbow today, dear one.
Pothum idhu pothum
This is enough, this is enough,
Peraanantham neethanammaa
You are supreme bliss itself, dear one.
