O eyes, my eyes,
A screen unfolds
The moment I look at you.
And on it, on it,
Pictures are drawn
By all the desires gathering in my heart.
The daytime that blazed like the sun
Has dared to wane like the moon.
The shadow that was pitch black
Turned bright with just one glance from you.
My love, just looking at you
Is a wonderful experience.
Even losing my life because of you
Is pure, sweet bliss.
O eyes, my eyes,
A screen unfolds
The moment I look at you.
And on it, on it,
Pictures are drawn
By all the desires gathering in my heart.
Whatever you say, I will marvel at it.
I will cup your beauty in my hands and adore it.
Whatever you say, I will marvel at it.
I will cup your beauty in my hands and adore it.
Even if you act stubborn, I will bear it patiently.
I recorded your voice on my phone.
I will stay by your side all day long.
In your smile, I will shake off my laziness.
Whatever you say, I will marvel at it.
I will cup your beauty in my hands and adore it.
Mmm… mmm… mmm…
Mmm… mmm… mmm…
You are a fruit untouched even by a leaf.
Be patient, the day I taste you will come.
You are music untouched by any fingers.
You are a gentle melody won over by my love.
You are a blessing I received without any penance.
O ocean of a woman, shower me with kisses.
You are a fruit untouched even by a leaf.
Be patient, the day I taste you will come...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

'Vizhiyae Vizhiyae' is a soulful romantic track that conveys deep admiration, affection, and gentle intimacy. The protagonist marvels at how his beloved's presence transforms his world—turning harsh daylight into soothing moonlight and brightening dark shadows with just a single look. He expresses a desire to cherish every detail about her, from her voice saved on his phone to her endearing stubbornness. Written by lyricist Thamarai, the song transitions into poetic metaphors describing the heroine as pristine and untouched—like fruit untouched by leaves or music yet unplayed by fingers. It portrays love not just as an emotion, but as an unearned divine gift (a boon without penance) that fills the protagonist with endless joy and contentment.
