சொல்லத்தான்
நினைக்கிறேன் சொல்லாமல்
தவிக்கிறேன் காதல் சுகமானது
I think of expressing my feelings, yet I suffer without speaking them out.
Love is delightful.
வாசப்படி ஓரமாய்
வந்து வந்து பார்க்கும் தேடல்
சுகமானது அந்தி வெயில்
குழைத்து செய்த மருதாணி
போல வெட்கங்கள் வர
வைக்கிறாய்
Coming repeatedly to look near the doorway,
This searching is delightful; mixing the evening sunlight,
You make me blush like freshly applied henna.
வெளியே சிரித்து
நான் விளையாடினாலும்
தனியே அழ வைக்கிறாய்
இந்த ஜீவன் இன்னும் கூட
ஏன் உயிர் தாங்குது காதல்
சுகமானது
Even though I smile and play outside,
You make me weep in solitude; yet this life force still
Sustains my breath; love is delightful.
சொல்லத்தான்
நினைக்கிறேன் சொல்லாமல்
தவிக்கிறேன் காதல் சுகமானது
I think of expressing my feelings, yet I suffer without speaking them out.
Love is delightful.
லலலலா லலலலா

Lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalaa
சின்ன பூவொன்று
பாறையை தாங்குமா
உன்னை சேராமல் என்
விழி தூங்குமா தனிமை
உயிரை வதைக்கின்றது
Can a tender flower withstand the weight of a heavy boulder?
Will my eyes ever sleep without being united with you?
Solitude torments my soul.
கண்ணில் தீ வைத்து
போனது நியாயமா என்னை
சேமித்து வை நெஞ்சில் ஓரமா
கொலுசும் உன் பேர் ஜபிக்கின்றது
Is it fair to depart after igniting a fire in my eyes?
Save a small place for me in a corner of your heart.
Even my anklets chant your name.
தூண்டிலினை தேடும்
ஒரு மீன் போலே ஆனேன்
துயரங்கள் கூட அட சுவையாகுது
இந்த வாழ்க்கை இன்னும் இன்னும்
ரொம்ப ருசிக்கின்றது காதல்
சுகமானது
I have become like a fish actively seeking out the fishing hook.
Ah, even sorrows become sweet and tasty!
This life is becoming more and more delicious.
Love is delightful.

ஒரு ஆணுக்குள்
இத்தனை காந்தமா நீயும்
ஆனந்த பைரவி ராகமா
இதயம் அலை மேல்
சருகானதே
Does a single man possess so much magnetic charm?
Are you the blissful melody of Ananda Bhairavi raga?
My heart became a dry leaf drifting upon the ocean waves.
ஒரு சந்தன பௌர்ணமி
ஓரத்தில் வந்து மோதிய இரும்பு
மேகமே தேகம் தேயும்
நிலவானதே
At the edge of a sandalwood-scented full moon night,
Oh iron cloud that came and collided,
My body became like a slowly waning moon.
காற்று மலை சேர்ந்து
வந்து அடித்தாலும் கூட
கற்சிலையை போலே
நெஞ்சு அசையாதது
சுண்டு விரலாய் தொட்டு
இழுத்தாய் ஏன் குடை சாய்ந்தது
காதல் சுகமானது
Even if the blowing wind and pouring rain join together
And strike against me heavily,
Like a stone statue, my heart remained completely unmoved.
Yet you pulled me gently with just a pinky finger,
And my umbrella tilted; love is delightful.
ம்ம் சொல்லத்தான்
நினைக்கிறேன் சொல்லாமல்
தவிக்கிறேன் காதல் சுகமானது
Mm, I think of expressing my feelings, yet I suffer without speaking them out.
Love is delightful.
வாசப்படி ஓரமாய்
