Everything is chilled now
All is gonna be alright
Oh I'll be there
I'll be there for you
Everything is chilled now
Frozen in love
Let's warm and close around now
வெண்பனியே முன்பணியே
என் தோளில் சாய்ந்திட வா
இன்றிரவே நண்பகலே
என் கண்ணில் தொலைந்திட வா
O white snow, O early dew
Will you lean on my shoulder?
O tonight, O broad day
Will you get lost in my eyes?
உன் இருள் நேரங்கள்
உன் விழி ஈரங்கள்
தன்னாலே தேய்கிறதே
என் பனி காலங்கள்
பொன் வெயில் சாரல்கள்
உன்னால் உரைகிறதே
Your dark times
The moisture in your eyes
Are fading away on their own
My icy winter seasons
The showers of golden sunlight
Are freezing because of you
வெண்பனியே முன்பணியே
என் தோளில் சாய்ந்திட வா
இன்றிரவே நண்பகலே
என் கண்ணில் தொலைந்திட வா
O white snow, O early dew
Will you lean on my shoulder?
O tonight, O broad day
Will you get lost in my eyes?

My dark times
The moisture in my eyes
Are fading away because of you
My icy winter seasons
The showers of golden sunlight
Are freezing because of you
ஒரு இமை குளிர
ஒரு இமை வெளிர
உனக்குள்ளே உறங்கினேன்..
ஒரு இதழ் மலர
மறு இதழ் உளற
உன்னை அதில் உணர்கிறேன்..
As one eyelid cools down
As the other eyelid pales
I slept inside you...
As one lip blossoms
As the other lip dries
I feel you in that...
ஆதலால் பாகம்
மலர்ந்தது காதலால்
ஆய்தளால் இதழ் நனைந்தது
தோய்தலால்
இணையும் இன்னும்
Therefore, the path/part
Has blossomed because of love
By exploring, the lip became moist
Through gentle touch
Uniting even further
வெண்பனியே ....பெண் :
ம்ம்...

Frozen in love
Let's warm and close around now
இமைகளில் நனைந்தும்
இரு விழு நுழைந்தும்
இறங்கினாய் மனதுள்ளே
முதல் நொடி மரணம்
மறு நொடி ஜனனம்
என்னகுள்ளே என்னகுள்ளே
Drenched in eyelashes
Entering through both eyes
You descended deep into my heart
The first moment is death
The next moment is rebirth
Deep within me, within me
எவ்வணம் அதில்
இவளொரு செவ்வனம்
சோவெதம் அதில் அலைந்திட
வா நிதம்
கணம் கணமே
Youthfulness..
In that, she is a crimson sky
Warm sweat/glow
Come to wander in it daily
Moment by moment
