வாடி வளர்பிறையே
வாடி என் துணைக்கிளியே
Come, my waxing crescent moon
My life's companion parrot
வாடி வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வின் துணைக்கிளியே
திசைகளை திறந்து திறந்து
பறந்து போகலாம்
Come, my waxing crescent moon
My life's companion parrot
Opening up all the directions
Let us fly away together
வாழ்வே வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வோம் துணைக்கிளியே
திசைகளை திறந்து திறந்து
பறந்து போகலாம்
Life itself is a growing crescent
Let us live together, my companion parrot
Opening up all the directions
Let us fly away together
சுத்தம் பூமி சுழலும் காத்து
சுவாசிக்க நாமும் வழியில்லையா
வண்ணத்துப்பூச்சி வாழும் போது
நாமும் வாழ வழியில்லையா
Clean earth and swirling wind
Is there no way left for me to breathe?
Female: When even a butterfly gets to live
Is there no place for me to live too?
காலம் நமக்கு
இனி கண்ணீர் எதுக்கு
கடலை தடுக்க
இரு கைகள் இருக்கு
Time is on our side now
Why shed tears anymore?
To stem the rising ocean
We have our two hands
காலம் நமக்கு
இனி கண்ணீர் எதுக்கு
கடலை தடுக்க
இரு கைகள் இருக்கு
Time is on our side now
Why shed tears anymore?
To stem the rising ocean
We have our two hands
வாடி வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வின் துணைக்கிளியே
வாடி வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வின் துணைக்கிளியே
Come, my waxing crescent moon
My life's companion parrot
Come, my waxing crescent moon
My life's companion parrot
மாலை மலர் மாற்றி
மஞ்சத்தில் இதழ் மாற்றி
காலையில் எழுவோமா
கனிமொழியே
Exchanging flower garlands in the evening
Exchanging sweet kisses on the bed
Shall we wake up together in the morning
Oh sweet-spoken one?
இரவில் உடைமாற்றி
பகலில் உனை மாற்றி
உறவை தொடர்வோமா
உயிர் அழகே
Entwining bodies through the night
Cherishing you through the day
Shall we continue this sacred union
Oh beautiful soul?
மார்புக்கு நடுவே கூடுகட்டி
காதலி உனை நான் வாழ வைப்பேன்
Building a cozy nest in the middle of my chest
My love, I will make you live happily
குளத்தின் உள்ளே நீ
எது படைத்தாய்
உயிர்க்கு உறையாக
நான் இருப்பேன்
Inside the pond of love
What magic have you created?
As a protective sheath for your very soul
I will always stand guard
வாடி வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வின் துணைக்கிளியே
திசைகளை திறந்து திறந்து
பறந்து போகலாம்
Come, my waxing crescent moon
My life's companion parrot
Opening up all the directions
Let us fly away together
வாழ்வே வளர்பிறையே
வாழ்வோம் துணைக்கிளியே
திசைகளை திறந்து திறந்து
பறந்து போகலாம்
Life itself is a growing crescent
Let us live together, my companion parrot
