வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
Why did the full moon arrive at dawn? Honeyed words echo even in the tinkling sound of hand bangles.
நித்தம் சாயங்கால நேரம்
நெஞ்சில் சாய்ந்து பேச வேண்டும்
நெஞ்சில் சாய்ந்து பேசும் நேரம்
மழை சாரல் வீச வேண்டும்
Every evening time, we must lean on each other's chest and talk; while leaning and talking, a soft drizzle of rain should blow.
இதுபோல் தொடரும்
இந்த காதல் கதை
காலம் உள்ள காலம் வரை
Male: This love story will continue like this, as long as time itself exists.
வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
Why did the full moon arrive at dawn? Honeyed words echo in the sound of bangles.
இதுதான்
குழு :
பருவம் தினம் பயிலும்
இதழ் உரசும் இந்த சரசம்
This is the playful romance where youth learns daily, as lips gently brush against each other.
இதமாய்...
குழு :
நழுவும் இந்த தருணம்
வந்த விரகம் மெல்ல விலகும்
Slipping away comfortably, this moment causes the longing of separation to slowly fade.
முத்தங்கள் ஒவ்வொன்றும்
முத்துப்போல் பதிக்க
கன்னங்கள் ஒவ்வொன்றும்
தென்னங்கள் வடிக்க
Each kiss is etched firmly like a precious pearl, while each cheek reflects sweet thoughts.
ஹோய் பக்கம் வரும் போது
அள்ளிக் கொடு பட்டுப் படித்தேனே....
தொட்டுத் தழுவாது
அந்தி பகல் பித்து பிடித்தேனே
உன்னை நான் தொட
என்னை நீ தொட எதிர்பார்த்திருந்தாயோ
When coming close, I gathered and held you; without touching and embracing, day and night I went crazy with longing.
வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
Male: You were waiting in anticipation for me to touch you and for you to touch me.
ஆஅ.....ஆஅ.....ஆஅ....ஆஅ.....ஆஅ....
ஹா......ஆஅ.....ஆஅ....ஆஅ.....ஆஅ....
Why did the full moon arrive at dawn? Honeyed words echo in the sound of bangles.
பல நாள்
குழு :
இரவில் பனி நிலவில்
இவள் இளைத்தாள் உந்தன் நினைவில்
Vocalizations and melodic harmonies.
அடடா
குழு :
இது போல் ஒரு சபலம்
ஒரு சலனம் சில சமயம்
For many days in the cold nighttime moonlight, she pined away lost in thoughts of you.
ஒட்டிக்கொள் கட்டிக்கொள்
உன்னில் நான் கலக்க
அம்மம்மா அச்சம்தான்
என்னென்று விளக்க
Aha, such a temptation and restless flutter at times!
பள்ளியறைப் பாட்டின்
பல்லவியை சொல்லித் தரலாமா
ஆ சொல்லித்தரும் போது
சின்ன இடை துன்ப படலாமா
ஹ்ம்ம் மிச்சம் மீதியும்
மத்த சேதியும் முதல் ராத்திரி தானா
Stick close and embrace tightly so I can merge into you; Female: Oh dear, how can I explain my hesitation and fear?
வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
வைகறையில் வந்ததென்ன வான்மதி
கைவளையல் ஓசையிலும் தேன்மொழி
Shall I teach you the opening line of the bedroom song? Female: While teaching, should my slender waist suffer? Male: Hmm, is the remainder of the story reserved for the wedding night?
