Shall I teach you? Shall I teach you?
Come slowly, come closer to me.
Shall I shower you with love? Shall I give my all?
No matter how much is taken, it never runs out, my beauty.
I thought of you,
I yearned for you every day.
Don't keep pulling away, my life.
Shall I shower you with love? Shall I give my all?
No matter how much is taken, it never runs out, my beauty.
La la la la na na
La la la la na na... mmm
Love is a habit from the cradle,
that lasts all the way to the bed.
The arrow of desire will unlock every latch.
As long as man and woman exist,
love will blind their eyes,
and even in fire, sweetness will be found.
A rain of love will drizzle,
the bed will rock like a ship.
A woman's restraint will falter,
and inhibitions will sail away!
With no scenes cut away,
this is an uncut film...
Shall I teach you...?
Female: Shall I teach you...?
Male: Come slowly, come closer to me...
Female: Shall I shower you with love...?
Male: Shall I give my all...?
Female: No matter how much is taken, it never runs out, my beauty.
Whom has desire ever spared?
Shyness claps its hands and dances away,
the thorn of passion has pricked.
Words click their tongue in wonder,
your gaze tattoos deep into me,
and a tingling sting spreads through my body.
Your gaze touches me,
hands cross every boundary.
The moment this flower is touched,
the mind loses all control.
Everything my love speaks of here,
is something you already know.
Shall I teach you? Shall I teach you?
Come slowly, come closer to me.
Shall I shower you with love? Shall I give my all?
No matter how much is taken, it never runs out, my beauty.
I thought of you,
I yearned for you every day.
Don't keep pulling away, my life.

Poetic devices

Adukkuthodar (Repetition for Emphasis)

Mella mella vaa vaa vaa arughae

The repetition of words like 'Mella mella' and 'Thalli thalli' creates a musical rhythm while accentuating the gentle, persuasive mood of intimacy.

Urvagam (Metaphor)

Mogam ennum mul thaithathu

The line metaphorically compares desire to a piercing thorn ('Mogam ennum mul') and intense bodily sensations to a scorpion sting ('thel kottuthu').

Ethugai (Second-letter Rhyming)

Kaadhal mazhai thoorumae / Kattil kappal adumae

Matching second consonants across lines (e.g., 'Kaadhal' and 'Kattil', 'Penmai' and 'Maanam') enhance poetic flow.
