| Male | |
| Yaar ival | Who is she? |
| Vizhigalil vazhi solli pogiral | Showing me the way through her eyes, she passes by. |
| Theendalil | In her touch, |
| Dhisai ettum maranthae pogiren | I completely forget all eight directions. |
| Male | |
| Kaatrinil | In the breeze, |
| Padaranthidum mayilin thogaiyae | She is like a peacock's feather spreading out. |
| Pinnalil | In her braided hair, |
| Malar ena vazhnthida yenginen | I longed to live as a flower. |
| Male | |
| Yaaro ival | Who is she? |
| Mun jenmathin kanmani ival | Is she the apple of my eye from a past life? |
| Ival than aval | Is she that very woman, |
| In jenmathin muthal penmaniyo | The first lady of this present life? |
| Idhalinil sinugalil | In the playful sulking of her lips, |
| Noorandu vaazhven adi | I will live for a hundred years, my dear. |
| Viralgalil nagangalaai | Even if I live as fingernails on her fingers, |
| Vaazhnthaalum podhumae | That alone would be enough for me. |
| Male | |
| Yaar ival | Who is she? |
| Vizhigalil vazhi solli pogiral | Showing me the way through her eyes, she passes by. |

யார் இவள்
விழிகளில் வழி
சொல்லி போகிறாள்
தீண்டலில் திசை
எட்டும் மறந்தே
போகிறேன்
Who is she?
Showing me the way through her eyes, she passes by.
In her touch,
I completely forget all eight directions.
காற்றினில்
படர்ந்திடும் மயிலின்
தோகையே பின்னலில்
மலர் என வளந்திட
ஏங்கினேன்
In the breeze,
She is like a peacock's feather spreading out.
In her braided hair,
I longed to live as a flower.
யாரோ இவள் முன்
ஜென்மத்தின் கண்மணி
இவள் இவள் தான் அவள்
இந்த ஜென்மத்தின் முதல்
பெண்மையோ இதழினில்
சிணுங்களில் நூறாண்டு
வாழ்வேன் அடி விரல்களில்
நகங்களாய் வாழ்ந்தாலும்
போதுமே
Who is she?
Is she the apple of my eye from a past life?
Is she that very woman,
The first lady of this present life?
In the playful sulking of her lips,
I will live for a hundred years, my dear.
Even if I live as fingernails on her fingers,
That alone would be enough for me.
யார் இவள்
விழிகளில் வழி சொல்லி
போகிறாள் தீண்டலில்
திசை எட்டும் மறந்தே
போகிறேன்
Who is she?
Showing me the way through her eyes, she passes by.
In her touch,
I completely forget all eight directions.

வாழ்வே நீயே ஆனாய்
இமைக்காமல் உன்னை
காப்பேன் உயிரே உறவாய்
ஆனால் ஆஆ ஆஆ ஆஆ
I saw you just for one day,
And you became my entire life.
I will protect you without blinking an eye,

பாவை பார்வையை
பார்த்தாலே இதயம் நின்று
தான் துடித்திடுமே மீண்டும்
பார்வை இல்லை எனில்
துடிக்கும் இதயமும்
நின்றிடுமே
When this maiden casts her glance,
My heart stops for a moment and then beats.
If there is no second look from her,
Even this beating heart will stop forever.
போகும் பாதையில்
பொழிந்த தூரலே முழுவதும்
நனைப்பாய் சாரலே வேண்டும்
காதலை விரும்பி தந்திடு
கருவென சுமப்பேன் மழையே
யார் இவள்
O gentle shower that poured on the path I walk,
O rain drizzle, drench me completely.
Graciously bestow the love I yearn for,
O heavy mountain of love, I shall carry you like a fetus inside me.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Yaar Ival' expresses a protagonist's deep fascination and sudden romantic awakening upon encountering a captivating woman. He marvels at her beauty, wondering if she was his soulmate in a past birth or the destined love of his current life. Through vivid imagery, he expresses how her touch disorients him, her gaze dictates his very heartbeat, and his entire existence has shifted after meeting her just once. The emotional arc moves from awe and wonder to intense devotion, where he wishes to be close to her in any form, even as a flower in her hair or nails on her fingers.
