உன்னைக் கண்டு உள்ளம் அன்று
உறவுக் கொண்டு மாய்ந்தபோது
என் பொன்மானே நீ வந்தாயே
என் பொன்மானே நீ வந்தாயே..
When my heart saw you that day
And melted as a bond was formed
Oh my golden deer, you arrived
Oh my golden deer, you arrived
இன்பம் என்று ஏங்கும் நெஞ்சம்
உந்தன் கையில் சாய்ந்த போது
என் கண்ணா நீ சுகம் தந்தாயே
என் கண்ணா நீ சுகம் தந்தாயே..
The heart that yearned for bliss
When it leaned upon your hands

தீருமோ தாகமே அதுவரை மோகமே
தீருமோ தாகமே அதுவரை மோகமே
இனி ஒன்றாகலாம்
Yours, these two lips that offer sweet nectar are yours
New, the fruit juice flowing from them is new
Will this thirst ever be quenched? Until then, passion reigns
Will this thirst ever be quenched? Until then, passion reigns

இன்னிசை ஊர்வலம் என்றுமே வாழ்விலே
இன்னிசை ஊர்வலம் என்றுமே வாழ்விலே
இனி ஒன்றாகலாம்
What was once mine is now ours
Dreams will come, life is a dream for both of us
A procession of sweet music forever in our lives
