Sirippa konjam kadan kodudaa sinegithaa
Naan sirichchuputtu thiruppi tharaen sinegithaa
Sirippa konjam kadan kodudaa sinegithaa
Naan sirichchuputtu thiruppi tharaen sinegithaa
Manasa ninaikkaama udhadu mattum sirikkaathu
Velaikku kidakkaathu velinaattulaiyum kidaikaathu
Annan tharamaattaan peththa appan tharamaattaan
Un thambi thangai machchaan maman aththai maami
Sontha pantham evanum tharamaattaan
Poranththu sirikkaththaanae sinegithaa
Antha sirippillaatha vaazhkkai waste-tu sinegithaa
Sirippa konjam kadan kodudaa sinegithaa
Naan sirichchuputtu thiruppi tharaen sinegithaa
Ada onnaanth thedhi aanaa namma maniparasukku
Irupaththi onnaam thedhi vanthaa nagai koduppavanukku sirippu
intha pollaa pona manitha sirippu kuzhanthai sirippu sirippu
Thavazhum vayasila naan thaayin madiyil melirunthu
Muththu muththaa sirichchaen paaru sinegithaa
Nadakkum vayasila en paattiyammaa mudhugu mela
Anbu udhira yaeri sirichchaen sinegithaa
Annaiyidam thanathaiyidam anbu sintha sirichchendaa
Nanbargalin koottaththilae nallaave naan sirichchaendaa
Moththamaa podavaikitta sirippa adagu vachchendaa
Sirippa konjam kadan kodudaa sinegithaa
Naan sirichchuputtu thiruppi tharaen sinegithaa

Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
Without the heart feeling it, lips alone will not smile.
It cannot be bought for a price, nor is it available abroad.
An elder brother won't give it, nor will the father who gave birth to you.
Your younger brother, sister, brother-in-law, uncle, or aunt...
No relative or kin will give it to you.
We are born to smile, aren't we, my friend?
A life without that smile is a waste, my friend.
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
Ah, on the first of the month, our purse smiles...
When the twenty-first date comes, the smile belongs to the moneylender.
This wicked human smile, a child's smile is the true smile.
At the crawling age, sitting high on my mother's lap...
Look, I laughed pearls of smiles, my friend.
At the walking age, riding on my grandmother's back...
I climbed and smiled as love showered, my friend.
With mother and father showering love, I smiled, my friend!
Among the crowd of friends, I laughed so well, my friend!
I pawned my entire smile to the saree, my friend!
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
...
Gandhi's smile is found only on the currency note.
Look, we don't even have that, my friend.
It is true that our God resides in the smile of the poor.
So that we, the poor, can smile, my friend.
The hard work that serves others...
That is the smile of Mother Nation, my friend!
Existing within this world is that...
Smile of the divine, my friend!
For good people to smile as well,
A better time will dawn, my friend!
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
Without the heart feeling it, lips alone will not smile.
It cannot be bought for a price, nor is it available abroad.
An elder brother won't give it, nor will the father who gave birth to you.
Your younger brother, sister, brother-in-law, uncle, or aunt...
No relative or kin will give it to you.
We are born to smile, aren't we, my friend?
A life without that smile is a waste, my friend.
Lend me a little smile, my friend.
I will smile and return it to you, my friend.
