There is no wrong in touching me
No one is around, shall I come close?
Come, my darling, come! Oh, come, my darling, come!
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come!
Hey, there is no wrong in touching me
No one is around, shall I come close?
Come, my darling, come! Oh, come, my darling, come!
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come!
If you are hungry, at least drink a little milk
If you like me, hold me close to your chest
A body smooth as glass, a storehouse of love
With desire rising manifold, if you are hungry...
Come, come drink at least a little milk
Come embrace me, come enjoy
The underworld and this earth
And the heavens above—I want to see them all
Just join with me, and you will know it all
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come!
There is no wrong in touching me
No one is around, shall I come close?
Come, my darling, come! Oh, come, my darling, come!
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come!
Hey baby, you are so silky, ah
Female: Ha ha ha ha
If you like me, gently pick me up like a flower
Once you do, shower your love as you please
In the chill of Thai (Tamil month of January–February), this body is a tender sprout
A flower resting in your hand, offering you love
If you like me, come gently pick me like a flower, come, come
Come give your love, come hold me close, come, come
Is it my turn or is it yours, mister?
Come, let us see, it has been so long, hasn't it?
Why waste time on silly talk now?
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come!
There is no wrong in touching me
No one is around, shall I come close?
Come, my darling, come! Oh, come, my darling, come!
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come, haha!
Oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!
All seven worlds are right here, just come, ha!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This song is an upbeat, flirtatious duet from the 1983 Tamil film 'Thudikkum Karangal'. The heroine playfully invites her lover closer, assuring him that there is no harm in intimate physical proximity when they are alone. She metaphorically compares worldly bliss and divine contentment to being present in their intimacy, claiming that all 'seven worlds' of pleasure reside right there. Through sensory imagery involving warmth, flowers, glass, and milk, the lyrics emphasize affection, passion, and youthful romantic playfulness. The song uses casual, conversational Tamil phrases interspersed with rhythmic vocal fills to create a lively dance atmosphere.
