சித்திர புத்திரி வந்தாலும்
கண்ணுல கத்திரி தந்தாலும்
நித்திர கோத்திட நின்னாலும்
நெஞ்சில உன் மோகம் வந்தாடும்
அத்தன முத்தமும் தந்தாலும்
Even if a picture-perfect princess arrives,
Even if scissors snip at my eyes,
Even if I try to peck at sleep,
Your face dances in my heart.
Even if given all those kisses,
உன்ன போல் ஆள் இல்ல
கலவர பேர் அழகா
இது வர பாத்ததில்ல
நான் ஆவே நான் இல்ல
There is no one like you, no, no.
O stunning beauty causing a stir,
I have never seen anyone like this before.
I am not myself anymore,
உள்ள நீ கொல்ல கொல்ல
கள்ள போர் ஆனதெல்லாம்
கண்ணம்மா பாத்ததில்ல
இல்ல இல்ல நீ
As you keep killing me inside.
Everything that became a stone fight,
Kannamma has never seen.
No, no, you,
தள்ள தள்ள
என் நினைவில சில பல
தீ இன்னு குறையல
Pushing away, pushing away,
In my memory, a few things,
The fire still has not reduced.
வண்டு கண்னு கொண்ட பொண்ணு
தந்தது வெத்தல
ஒத்தடம் பத்தல
இல்ல ஏன் என்ன காண வில்ல
நா தொட்டேன் வானவில்ல
ஆதி சக்கர சக்கர
உன் பேர கேட்டதில்ல
The girl with eyes like a beetle,
Gave a betel leaf,
The warm compress was not enough.
No... why am I nowhere to be found?
I touched the rainbow,
Hey sugar, sugar,
I've never heard your name before,
இல்ல இல்ல இல்ல
இல்ல இல்ல
அந்த போம்மா புள்ள போல
யாரும் இல்ல நல்லா சொல்ல
No, no, no,
No, no,
That doll-like girl,
There is no one like her to tell you clearly.
இல்ல இல்ல இல்ல
இல்ல இல்ல
உன்ன வெச்சேன் உள்ள
நா கேட்க்கிறேன் மெல்ல
No, no, no,
No, no, no,
I kept you deep inside,
I will hold you gently.
சித்திர புத்திரி வந்தாலும்
கண்ணுல கத்திரி தந்தாலும்
நித்திர கோத்திட நின்னாலும்
நெஞ்சில உன் மோகம் வந்தாடும்
அத்தன முத்தமும் தந்தாலும்
எத்தின முத்திரை கொண்டாலும்
பத்தல பத்தல என்றாகும்
நித்தமும் தாங்காத கொண்டாடும்
Even if a picture-perfect princess arrives,
Even if scissors snip at my eyes,
Even if I try to peck at sleep,
Your face dances in my heart.
Even if given all those kisses,
No matter how many seals of affection are placed,
It will still feel insufficient, insufficient,
Daily celebrating pure gold.

Enchanting magical cheeks,
They told me back then itself,

Oh my, oh my,
இடுப்பு என்ன மாறி வெல்ல
நா ரெண்டா உடைய தொட்டதும் சுட்டதும்

A waist as soft and white,
As soon as I touched and felt the heat,
Just stay still, girl,

கறைய வெச்சு ஆறா ஆறா
காதல் ஊரா
காயம் நூறா
யாரோடும் பேசாத பூ போறா
கேக்காம தூராதம்மா பன்னீரா
The river made to melt,
Love overflowing the town,
A hundred wounds,
The flower walking without speaking to anyone,
Don't pour rosewater without asking,
உன்ன பாக்காம
காலம் போகாது
தேரா வாடி நேரா
Without seeing you,
Time will not pass,
Come directly like a chariot,
முனங்கல் :
.................
Didn't bother to notice at all,
On an incomprehensible path,
She who goes alone,
Whomever she goes with,
கண்டுக்க வில்ல வில்ல
புரியா பாதையில
தனியா போறவளே
யாரோன்னு போனாளாம்
How many lakhs of troubles,
Peace of mind is nowhere to be found,
Just thinking of it, there is no sleep,
Whomever she goes with,
எத்தினி லட்சம் தொல்ல
நிம்மதி காண வில்ல
நெனச்சே தூக்கம் இல்ல
யாரோன்னு போனாலும்
No, no, no,
No, no,
That doll-like girl,
There is no one like her to tell you clearly.
முனங்கல் :

I will hold you gently.
