என்னை மாற்றும் முதல் நேசமே
உன் நிழலும் என்னுள் ஒளி வீசுமே
உயிர் வாசமே என் உயிர் வாசமே
You are the first affection that changes me.
Even your shadow shines light within me.
O fragrance of my soul, my soul's fragrance!
நீயே என் மனதின் அடி ஆழமே
உன் நினைவு என்னுள் தினம் வாழுமே
You alone are the deepest depth of my heart.
Your memory lives inside me every day.
உயிர் வாசமே என் உயிர் வாசமே
உயிர் வாசமே என் புது சுவாசமே

உன்னோடு இருக்கவே என் கால்கள் நடக்குதே
உன்னோடு நடக்கவே என் பாதை நீளுதே
ஆறாதோ காயங்கள் தீராதோ சோகங்கள்
இது வரை நடத்தது எது வரை நினைப்பது
My feet walk just to be with you.
My path stretches out just to walk alongside you.
Will these wounds never heal? Will these sorrows never end?
How long should I remember all that has happened until now?
உயிர் வாசமே என் உயிர் வாசமே
உயிர் வாசமே என் புது சுவாசமே
தொடுவானமும் நம் கதை பேசுமே
