Usure needhaan pulla
Unna vedhachen ullukulla
Vaasa kadhava pola
Pootti vechen nenjukkulla
Kannil kanavathaan koottura
Kalimanna kolaikkura
Sirikkathaan palakkuraa enna
Sondham aakkikka kekkuren
Sona pulla meiyuren
Sokki thaan poguren ponnae
Adi en manja kuruvi
Koodi vaazha ketkkavaa
Uchi mulukka un nenappil
Naan kerangi pogavaaa
Pudhu kappalil nadu kadalila

You are my very life, my girl
I have planted you deep within me
Like an entrance door
I locked you safe inside my heart
You gather dreams in my eyes
You soften and shape me like wet clay
You teach me how to smile
I ask for you to be mine forever
I wander lost like cattle grazing in the gentle rain
I am completely swept away, my girl
Hey my little yellow bird
Shall I ask to build a life together?
Lost from head to toe in your thoughts
Shall I drift away in a daze of love?
On a brand-new ship in the middle of the sea
We must go on a long journey
Giving the betrothal gift, with the edge of your saree
We must tie a cradle for our little one
Like a drawstring pouch
Until we wrinkle with old age
Becoming one with each other
We must live our lives, my girl
You are my very life, my girl
I have planted you deep within me
You gather dreams in my eyes
You soften and shape me like wet clay
You teach me how to smile
I ask for you to be mine forever
I wander lost like cattle grazing in the gentle rain
I am completely swept away, my girl
Like green moss clinging to a stone
Shall I lean upon your shoulder?
Like the husk embracing a grain of paddy
Shall I hold you close and melt into you?
My queen, for the house
Where we are going to live
I must give it your name
In that deep red shade
The one you longed for again and again
I must gift you that saree
Even when walking over
A bed of thorns
The sweet scent of having touched you
Should linger all around me
You are my very life, my girl
I have planted you deep within me
Like an entrance door
I locked you safe inside my heart
You gather dreams in my eyes
You soften and shape me like wet clay
You teach me how to smile
I ask for you to be mine forever
I wander lost like cattle grazing in the gentle rain
I am completely swept away, my girl
