உன் வாசம் கிடைக்காமலோ!
இது நாளை வரை நம்
இடைவெளியோ!
Is it because I could not get your scent!
Until this day, our
Distance existed!
மனதுக்குள் கொண்ட காயம்
நினைத்து ஏங்க தோனும்
என் அருகினில் நீ…
வரும் தொடர்கதையா!
The pain held inside the heart
Thinking of it makes me yearn
You beside me...
As a continuing story!
உன் வாசம் கிடைக்காமலோ!
இது நாளை வரை நம்
இடைவெளியோ!
யகி யகி யகி யகியே…
யகி யாகே…
Ohoo
Is it because I could not get your scent!
Until this day, our
Distance existed!
Yagi yagi yagi yagiae...
Yagi yaagae....
வான் மின்மின் நட்சத்திரங்கள்
ஒன்று சேர செல்லும்
அந்த தருணம் அன்பே…!
மேகங்கள் கொஞ்சம் கொஞ்சமாய்
சிந்தும் மழைத்துளியில்
உந்தன் வாசம் அன்பே!
The twinkling stars in the sky
Tell us to come together
That moment, my love...!
The clouds, bit by bit
In the raindrops they shower
Hold your scent, my love
ஏன் உன்னை கண்டேன்?
உன் ஞாபகம் இங்கே!
காற்றோடு கவிதைகளாய்
எந்தன் ஆசை…
Why did I see you?
Your memory here
As poetry in the wind
My desire
ஏன் உன்னை கண்டேன்?
உன் ஞாபகம் இங்கே!
காற்றோடு கவிதைகளாய்
எந்தன் ஆசை…
Why did I see you?
Your memory here
As poetry in the wind
My desire..
ஓஹோ
உன் வாசம் கிடைக்காமலோ!
இது நாளை வரை நம்
இடைவெளியோ!
Ohoo..
Is it because I could not get your scent!
Until this day, our
Distance existed!
மனதுக்குள் கொண்ட காயம்
நினைத்து ஏங்க தோனும்
என் அருகினில் நீ…
ரப்ப பாபப் பாபப்பா
The pain held inside the heart
Thinking of it makes me yearn
You beside me...
