When I think of you,
When I think of you,
My heart melts,
It slowly melts,
Oh oh oh, slowly...
I yearn to speak,
Yet as I struggle for words,
Why do I get trapped and restless,
Why am I lost in a trance?
Oh oh oh, why?
The moment I first saw you,
Lightning struck deep within my heart.
I am no longer myself here, my love.
Everything I see in my dreams
Must come true, my dear.
You are the boon my very soul asks for.
When I think of you,
When I think of you,
My heart melts,
It slowly melts,
Oh oh oh, slowly...
I yearn to speak,
Yet as I struggle for words,
Why do I get trapped and restless,
Why am I lost in a trance?
Oh oh oh, why?
Birth happens only once,
Death happens only once,
In between, shall I go searching for you?
Holding you close in my arms,
I want to remain joined with you,
For aren't you my other half from now on?
To lose myself in your talk,
To fall asleep on your chest,
I have longed for this, my beautiful one.
After living our lives upon this earth,
If we are to turn into stars,
I will be right next to you in the sky.
When I think of you,
When I think of you,
My heart melts,
It slowly melts,
Oh oh oh, slowly...
I yearn to speak,
Yet losing my words,
Why do I get trapped and restless,
Why am I lost in a trance?
Oh oh oh, why?
Thana na na
Thana na na naa naa naa
Thana na na na nana nana

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Unnai Nenachida' is a tender, expressive romantic track depicting the protagonist's deep affection and emotional intoxication upon thinking of his beloved. He expresses how his heart melts slowly and how he feels completely mesmerized, losing his own identity from the moment he first laid eyes on her. Her presence feels like an answered prayer that turns his dreams into reality. In the second verse, he reflects on the philosophical nature of life, noting that birth and death occur only once, making his journey to find and remain with her the ultimate purpose of his existence. He yearns for physical and emotional closeness, wishing to remain by her side even beyond life on earth as stars in the night sky.
