வாடா போடா திருடா
ஏடா கூடா முரடா
வாடா போடா திருடா
ஏடா கூடா முரடா
Hey thief, come and go with casual affection!
You awkward, clumsy brute!
Hey thief, come and go with casual affection!
You awkward, clumsy brute!
பாக்கும் போது நீ பாசக்காரன் தான்
பழகும் போது நீ மோசக்காரன் தான்
When I look at you, you seem so affectionate.
But as I get to know you, you turn out to be a tricky deceiver.
காய் ரேகை தேய்ய பிடிப்பாயோ
மேல் ஆடை போல நீ ஒட்டி கொள்வாயா
கண்ணாடி போல நடிப்பாயா
உன்னை காணும் நேரம் நீ என்னை பார்ப்பாயா
Will you hold my hand so tightly that my palm lines wear away?
Will you cling to me like soft clothing?
Will you act like a mirror reflecting my emotions?
When I look at you, will you look back into my eyes?
வாடா போடா திருடா
ஏடா கூடா முரடா
Hey thief, come and go with casual affection!
You awkward, clumsy brute!
கருவிழிகள் களவுகள் நடப்பது
எனக்கு இங்கு தெரிகிறதே
ஹோ ஓ விரல் இடுக்கினில் விரல்களும் புகுந்திட
அடிக்கடி நினைக்கிறதே
The thefts happening within your dark pupils...
I can clearly see them happening right here.
Hoo oo, fingers entwining between my fingers...
My heart frequently yearns for that.

ஹோ ஓ விரல் இடுக்கினில் விரல்களும் புகுந்திட

I can clearly see them happening right here.
Hoo oo, fingers entwining between my fingers...
My heart frequently yearns for that.
ஆடம் பிடிக்கிற அழகா
நீ இடம் பிடிக்கிற மெதுவா
படம் பிடிக்கிற கழுகா
நீ தடம் பதிக்கிறியே
Oh handsome guy who acts stubborn,
You softly occupy a special place in my heart.
Like a hawk locking onto its target,
You leave your deep footprints upon me.
தள்ளாடி போறேன் உன்னை பார்த்தா
கண் மூடி போவேன் என் நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள தான்
விளையாட்டுக்காரா உனதான் நான்
திரும்ப தேடும் என் கண்ணுக்குள்ள தான்
I stagger whenever I catch a glimpse of you.
I close my eyes and retreat inside my heart.
Oh playful one, it is you that I belong to...
My eyes keep searching for you repeatedly.
கண்ணையே மணியே கனவே
எல்லாம் உன்னால் அழகே
சிரிக்கும் போது நீ தீய வீசுறியே
முறைக்கும் போது நீ நோய கூட்டுறியே
Oh my eye, my precious gem, my dream!
Everything becomes beautiful because of you.
When you smile, you blow like a warm fire.
When you glare at me, you increase my ailment of love.
உன்னால தூக்கம் வெகு தூரம்
சொல்லாம போச்சே நீ ரொம்ப மோசம் தான்
என்னோட காதல் தெனம் தோறும்
உன்னோட போடும் ஒரு செல்ல சண்டை தான்.. கண்ணே
Because of you, sleep has drifted far away.
It left without telling me; you are really naughty!
Every day my love grows further and further...
And my battle with you is just a sweet, playful fight... my darling...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This playful song captures the vibrant dynamics of modern love, where teasing, affectionate insults, and tender romance blend seamlessly. The protagonist addresses her partner as a thief ('thirudaa') and a brute ('muradaa'), highlighting how his unpredictable behavior and magnetic charm constantly keep her on her toes. She describes the sweet agony of falling deeper in love, where simple gestures like entwined fingers or intense glances carry profound romantic weight. The lyrics beautifully portray the paradoxes of romance—how his smile brings warmth while his glares heighten her sweet craving, and how sleep becomes elusive in his thoughts. Playful quarrels ('chella sanda') are celebrated not as conflicts, but as expressions of deep affection that make her world brighter and richer every day.
