உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உனக்காக நான் இருக்கனும் எப்போதுமே
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should always be there for you
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
தாய் போல நான் காக்கணும் எப்போதுமே
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should protect you like a mother forever
எனக்காக என் நிழலாக
நீ கூடவே நின்னாயே
ஈ எறும்பு என அண்டாம
என கண்ணுல வச்சாயே
For my sake, as my shadow
You stood right beside me
Without letting flies or ants approach me
You protected me like the apple of your eye
நான் போகும் பாதை யாவும்
நீ அருகினில் இருப்பாயே
நான் கேட்கவும் கூட வேணும்
நீ எல்லாம் செய்வாயே
On every path that I walk
You will stay right next to me
I do not even need to ask
You will do everything for me
தாய் மடிக்கு தாயும்
என் சேயும் அட எல்லாம் நீ தானே
கண் கலங்கி கேட்டா அட நீயும்
உன் உசுர தருவாயே
A mother to my mother's lap
And my child too, you are everything to me
If I ask with teary eyes, even you
Would give your very life
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உனக்காக நான் இருக்கனும் எப்போதுமே
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should always be there for you
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
தாய் போல நான் காக்கணும் எப்போதுமே
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should protect you like a mother forever
அடிகடி வந்து கரைய
மோதும் அலைய போல ஆன
உன்ன நானும் பிரியும் போதும்
வத்தி தானே போவ
விழியோரம் உருளுது நீரு
இது அன்பால் வளர்ந்த காடு
இது எல்லாம் வெலகுற நேரம்
நீ ஒருத்தன் மட்டும் போதும்
Like a wave that comes and hits the shore
Frequently, I became
When I part from you
I will surely dry up
Tears roll down the corner of my eyes
This is a forest grown out of love
At a time when everything recedes
You alone are enough for me
எல்லாத்துக்கும் ஒத்த தாயி
தந்தான் சாமி
சாவும் மட்டும் நீதான் எனக்கு
ரெண்டாம் தாயி
God gave a single mother
For everything
Until my death, you are
My second mother
இது எல்லாம் வரம்தானா
உன் மகளும் நானே
மறுஜென்மம் கெடைச்சாலும்
என் மகனும் நீயே
Is all this a boon
I am also your daughter
Even if I get another rebirth
You will be my son
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உனக்காக நான் இருக்கனும் எப்போதுமே
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should always be there for you
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே பொறக்கணும்
தாய் போல நான் காக்கணும் எப்போதுமே ஹே.....
I want to be born along with you
I want to be born along with you
I should protect you like a mother forever
உன் கூடவே.......பொறக்கணும்
உன் கூடவே..........பொறக்கணும்......ம்ம்ம்.......
To be born along with you...
