Paagal
Male :Paagal thaanga
Unga mela paagal hogayaa
Adiye sattunu paartha
Naan takkunnu sirichen
En usurula usuraa unna thechi vechene
Ada athana kannum
Unna suthudhu pennae
En nithirai poiyum kanavula medhakkuren unnala
En kaathum adhu un mela veesa
Kaadhal pesa naanum
Un kannam andha muthatha ketkka
Udanae naan tharavaa
En nenjam adhu thanghala thanghala
Purinjikka purinjikka neeyum
En thangam unna serthukka muriya
Paarthukka naan varavaa
Tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri kadhal neeya
Enakkena porandhava nee dhaana
Tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri kadhal needhaan
Hindiyum tamilum seraadhaa
Beachu pakkam veedonnu thaaren
Anju pathu car vaanga poren
Aasa theera keladi pulla
Lookaala kolla ellamae seiven
Aasaiyellam poiyidum thaana
Sothu sogam irundhaalum venaa
Chellamaa ne paathukka podhum
Mathadhu ellaam aayidum thaana
Thangha thaali katti
Unna marrigae panna naan ready
Ketti melam kotti
Come vibe with me en kanmani
Sweeta pesi pesi
En hearta thiruda pakkura
Loveunnu thaan sonna
Pondattiya thaan maathura
Unna pola ponna naanum
Thedi thedi pakkuren
Female :Ullukulla unna thavira
Vera yaarum thakkala
Male :Enna vittu velagi pona
Thaniya naanum thindaduren
Tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri kadhal neeya
Enakkena porandhavan nee dhaana
Tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri pagal hey
Ah tu meri meri kadhal needhaan
Enakkena porandhava nee dhaandii
Enakkena porandhava nee dhaandii
Adiye gearaa pona manasula
Unnaye rasikirenae
Yosikkaama takkunnu paarthu
Ok sonna kattikkirenae
Adiye gearaa pona manasula
Unnaye rasikirenae
Yosikkaama takkunnu paarthu
Ok sonna kattikkirenae
Paagal
Female :Un mela paagal
Crazy
Male: Truly crazy
I have gone crazy over you
Girl, you just looked at me
and I smiled instantly
I blended you deep into my very soul
Ah, all those eyes
revolve around you, girl
Losing my sleep, I float in dreams because of you
As the breeze blows softly over you
and I speak of love
When your cheek asks for that kiss
shall I give it to you right away?
My heart cannot bear it, cannot take it
Please understand it too
My precious gold, unable to hold you close
shall I come over to look after you?
You are my crazy love
Ah, you are my crazy love
Ah, are you my true love?
Are you the one born just for me?
You are my crazy love
Ah, you are my crazy love
Ah, you are my true love
Won't Hindi and Tamil blend together?
I will give you a house by the beach
I am going to buy five or ten cars
Ask for whatever your heart desires, girl
To kill with your stunning looks, I will do anything
Desires will fade away on their own
Even if there is wealth or sorrow, I don't need it
It is enough if you just look after me lovingly
Everything else will happen on its own
Tying the golden thali (sacred wedding thread)
I am ready to marry you
With the wedding drums beating loud
come vibe with me, my darling
Talking so sweetly
you try to steal my heart
When I just talk about love
you make me your wife
A girl like you, I too
keep searching and looking for
Female: Deep inside, except for you
no one else has touched my heart
Male: If you walk away from me
I struggle all alone
You are my crazy love
Ah, you are my crazy love
Ah, are you my true love?
Are you the one born just for me?
You are my crazy love
Ah, you are my crazy love
Ah, you alone are my love
You are the one born just for me, girl
You are the one born just for me, girl
Girl, in this crazy heart of mine
I keep admiring only you
Looking at me instantly without thinking
if you say yes, I will marry you
Girl, in this crazy heart of mine
I keep admiring only you
Looking at me instantly without thinking
if you say yes, I will marry you
Crazy
Female: Crazy about you
