We need a world of our own.

We need the deity called Love.

என் வீட்டில் எல்லா புறமும்
உன் வாசம் ஏன் தந்தாய்
என் வீட்டில் எல்லா புறமும்
உன் வாசம் ஏன் தந்தாய்
சில நேரம் யாரைக் கேட்டு
எனக்குள்ளே நீ சென்றாய்
In every corner of my house,
Why did you leave your fragrance?
In every corner of my house,
Why did you leave your fragrance?
At times, asking whose permission,
Did you enter inside me?
என் கால்கள் தனியாக
உன் பின்னே செல்கிறதே
என் நெஞ்சம் துணியாக
உன் வழியில் கிடக்கிறதே
My feet, on their own,
Are walking behind you.
My heart like a piece of cloth,
Lies along your path.
சூரியனை தின்ற
மல்லிகையும் நீதான்
வெண்ணிலவை தோளில்
சுமந்தவனும் நீ தான்
You are the jasmine blossom
That devoured the sun.
Female: Carrying the white moon on your shoulders,
You are that very person.

ஆகாயம் தாண்டிட நெஞ்சம்
இப்போது நினைக்கிறதே
ஆகாயம் தாண்டிட நெஞ்சம்
இப்போது நினைக்கிறதே
அழகான தவறுகள் கூட
நீ செய்ய பிடிக்கிறதே
To leap beyond the sky, my heart
Now desires.
To leap beyond the sky, my heart
Now desires.
Even beautiful mistakes,
I love it when you commit them.
அறியாத குழந்தை போல
என் மனது குதிக்கிறதே
ஏதேதோ வேண்டும் என்று
அடம் பிடித்து கேட்கிறதே
Like an innocent child,
My heart is leaping with joy.
Demanding all sorts of things,
It stubbornly asks.
பட்டியலை எழுது
தருகிறேன் நானே
ஒட்டுமொத்த தேவை
நீ ஒருவன் தானே
Writing a wish list,
I shall give it to you myself.
Female: My ultimate requirement
Is you and you alone.
