சிரிக்கவெச்சு
சிரிக்கவெச்சு சிறகடிச்சு
பறக்க வெக்க கருப்பு
ராசா வந்திருக்கேன்
முன்னாலே
Making you laugh, making you laugh
Making you fly with wings
I, the dark king, have come before you...
நினைச்சி வெச்ச
கவலையெல்லாம் நிமிஷத்துல
ஓடிப்போகும் நெருப்பு ராசா எதிர
வந்து நின்னாலே
All the worries you kept inside
Will run away in a minute
If the fire king comes and stands before you...
பட்டர்ஃபிளை நீ
பறந்தா பட்ட மரம் பூக்குமே
ஆம்பளைங்க நகக்கண்ணும்
அன்னாந்து பாக்குமே
If you fly like a butterfly
Even a dried tree will bloom
Even the fingernails of men
Will look up in awe...
இந்திரன் சந்திரன்
கைகட்டி உன்னிடம்
சேவகம் புரிய வைக்கவா
இசட்-டில் தொடங்கி எ-வில்
முடிய இங்கிலீச மாத்தவா
Indra and the Moon
With folded hands before you
Shall I make them serve you?
Starting from Z and ending in A
Shall I reverse the English language?
சிரிக்கவெச்சு
சிரிக்கவெச்சு சிறகடிச்சு
பறக்க வெக்க கருப்பு
ராசா வந்திருக்கேன்
முன்னாலே
Making you laugh, making you laugh
Making you fly with wings
I, the dark king, have come before you...
காகத்தோட நிறத்த
கொஞ்சம் மேகத்தோட நிறத்த
காெஞ்சம் கலந்து எடுத்துவந்து
கண்களுக்கு மை தரவா
A bit of color from the crow,
A bit of color from the cloud
Mixing them up and bringing it
Shall I give kohl for your eyes?
வானத்த நிமித்தி
வெச்சு வைகைத்தண்ணி
நிரப்பிவெச்சு நீ குளிச்சி
மகிழ ஒரு நீச்சல்குளம்
அமைச்சிடவா
Straightening up the sky
Filling it with Vaigai river water
For you to bathe and enjoy
Shall I construct a swimming pool?
கன்னத்துல கைய
வெச்சு உட்காரவே கூடாது
வண்ணத்து பூச்சிப்போல
வட்டமடி என்னோடு
காத்தாடி நான் தானே
காத்து நீதான் அடி ஆத்தாடி
ஆணையிடு அப்படியே
செஞ்சிடுவேன்
Resting your cheek on your hand
You shouldn't sit sadly like that
Like a butterfly
Circle around with me...
I am the kite
You are the wind
Oh my, just give the order
I will execute it exactly...

நாரதர் இசையமைக்க
நக்கீரன் பாட்டெழுத பேரழகி
உனைப்புகழந்து பின்னனி
பாடட்டுமா
With Narada composing the music
With Nakkeerar writing the poem
Praising you, the ultimate beauty
Shall I sing in the background?
ஆலங்கட்டி எடுத்து
வந்து அரண்மணை வடிவமைச்சு
நீ நடக்கும் பாதையெல்லாம்
நட்சத்திரம் தெளிக்கட்டுமா
Bringing hail stones
Shaping them into a palace
On all the paths you walk
Shall I sprinkle stars?
உன்னை நான்
கட்டிக்கொல்ல என்னதவம்
செய்தேனோ மண்ணுமேல்
இன்பம் எல்லாம் ஒன்னா
சேந்த நீதானோ நானாக நான்
மாறி ஆடவாரேன் தலக்காலு
புரியாம தந்தனத்தோம் போடுவேன்
To embrace you
What penance did I perform?
Are you the single combination
Of all the pleasures on this earth?
Transforming into my true joyous self
I come to dance
Losing sense of head or feet
I will dance in ultimate ecstasy...
சிரிக்கவெச்சு
சிரிக்கவெச்சு சிறகடிச்சு
