வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
பகல் வெளிச்சம் நுழைந்திடாத
இந்த வனத்தின்
இரவின் சுகத்தை மகிழ்ந்து களிகவா
Where daylight does not penetrate
The nocturnal pleasure of this forest
Shall I celebrate with joy?
வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
பழகும் இந்த நாட்கள்
மயில் இறகை போல வருட
நதியிலே ஓர் நதியிலே ஓ...
மிதக்குதே உள்ளம்
These days of companionship
Caress like a peacock feather
Like a river, in a river
Oh, the heart floats along
நதியில் விழுந்த பூவாய் மனம்
உனது வழியில் செல்ல
கெஞ்சலும் உன் கொஞ்சலும்
பிடிக்குதே செல்லம்
Like a flower fallen into the river
My mind follows your path
In your pleading, in your caresses
Affection is born
எனக்கு என்று எதுவும் இல்ல
எனது உலகிலே
இதயம் பிறக்கும் தினமும் தினமும்
உனது நினைவிலே
Nothing belongs to me
In my own world
Every single day a heart is born
In your sweet memories
இந்த நிமிஷம் இனிய நிமிஷம்
இந்த நிமிஷம் இனிய நிமிஷம் எனக்கும் போதுமே
This sweet moment, sweet moment
This sweet moment, sweet moment
Is enough for me too
வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
நிலவின் ஒளியை எடுத்து
ஒரு புடவையாக உடுத்து
மயங்குதே உன் அழகிலே
உன் அழகிலே நெஞ்சம்
Taking the soft light of the moon
Draping it like a fine saree
Entranced by your beauty
The heart swoons over your beauty
மௌனமான மயக்கம்
உன் உயிரில் கலந்த நெருக்கம்
நடுங்குதே உடல் நடுங்குதே
உடல் நடுங்குதே கொஞ்சம்
A silent intoxication
A closeness blended into your soul
The body trembles, body trembles
The body trembles just a little
உடலில் கொஞ்சம் உயிரில் கொஞ்சம்
ஒளிந்துகொல்லவா
உனக்குள் இருக்கும் உலகை ரசித்து
கடைந்து செல்லவா
A bit in the body, a bit in the soul
Shall I hide myself away?
Enjoying the world that exists for you too
Shall I cross over and go?
வண்ண வயதும் வளரும் கனவும்
வண்ண வயதும் வளரும் கனவும் சிறகை தேடுதே
Colorful youth and growing dreams
Colorful youth and growing dreams
Search for wings to fly
வெளிநாட்டு கிராமபுரத்தில்
விளையாடும் காதல் ஜோடி
அறியாத மனிதர் காடும்
ஒரு அரவணைப்பிலே
In a foreign village
A romantic couple plays around
Shown by unknown strangers
In a warm embrace
பகல் வெளிச்சம் நுழைந்திடாத
இந்த வனத்தின்
இரவின் சுகத்தை மக்ழிந்து களிக்கவா
Where daylight does not penetrate
The nocturnal pleasure of this forest
Shall I celebrate with joy?
