உயிரிலே உயிரிலே
புது நதி ஊறுதே உறவிலே
உறவிலே புது கிளை
தோன்றுதே
In my life, deep within my life
A new river flows
In this relationship, in our bond
A new branch blossoms
இரவெனும் ஒரு
நேரம் நீ வந்ததாலே பால்
வண்ணம் கொண்ட நாள்
போல மாற
A time called night
Because you arrived
Having the pure white shade of milk
Changes like the day
ஏனோ நீ
பார்த்ததாலே என்
தேசமிங்கே பூந்தோட்டமாக
Wonder why
Because you looked at me
My entire world here
Becomes a flower garden
உன்னை தொடராமலே
தொடர்வேனடா நகர்ந்தாலுமே
நிகர் ஏதடா இணையாத வானும்
மண்ணும் பிரியாது தானடா
Without chasing you
I will pursue you
Even if we move, what can compare to this?
The unmerged sky and earth
Do not separate either
உறையாமலே
உறைந்தேனடா கரையாமலே
கரைந்தேனடா பிணையாக
தானே வந்தேன் உன்
கைதி நான்
Without speaking, I froze
Without melting, I dissolved
I came as a surety myself
I am your prisoner...
ஹோ மனம்
சொல்லும் வார்த்தை
ஒன்று வாழ்க்கை இன்று
ஆகுதே
Oh, a word spoken by the heart
A single word
Becomes life today
அன்பே உன் பாசம்
தானே என் நெஞ்சில் இன்று
ஊற்றாக ஊற முன்பே உன்
கைகள் தானே என் தோளில்
சேரும் பூமாலையாக
My beloved
It is your affection indeed
That springs like a fountain in my heart today
Before me
It is your hands indeed
That rest on my shoulder like a flower garland
மின்மினி கனவில்
மின்னலின் வரவில்
மின்னிடும் வெண்ணிலவில்
உன் மடியில் உறங்க
In a dream of fireflies
In the arrival of lightning
In the glowing moonlight
To sleep on your lap
அன்பெனும் மழையில்
கொஞ்சிடும் அழகில் அத்தனை
இன்பங்களாய் உன்னருகில் இருக்க
In the rain called love
In the caressing beauty
As all those pleasures
To remain near you
என்னை சேரவே
பிறந்தாயடா நிகழ்காலமாய்
நீயாக திகழ்ந்தாயடா ஹோ
ஹோ
You were born to unite with me
As the present moment
You shone bright as yourself
Hoo... hooo...

The speaker reflects on how love flows like a fresh river and blossoms like a new branch, bringing complete surrender where being trapped in love feels like absolute freedom. Through vivid natural imagery like fireflies, lightning, and moonlight, the song celebrates the profound solace found in the embrace of love.
