ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள்
Because today is your birthday
.............................
உலகப் பூக்களின்
வாசம் உனக்குச் சிறை
பிடிப்பேன் உலர்ந்த
மேகத்தைக் கொண்டு
நிலவின் கறை துடைப்பேன்
I will capture the fragrance of all the world's flowers for you
I will wipe away the moon's spots using dry clouds
ஆண் & பெண் :
{ ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள் } (2)
.............................
Setting up a stage on a leaf and handing a microphone to them
I will make birds sing while all the leaves applaud
I will make the bird that wins sing softly into your ear
I will order them to build a nest inside your room
I will instruct them to wake you up early in the morning
இலை ஒன்றில்
மேடை அமைத்து ஒலி
வாங்கி கையில் கொடுத்து
பறவைகளை பாடச் செய்வேன்
இலை எல்லாம் கைகள் தட்ட
அதில் வெல்லும் பறவை ஒன்றை
உன் காதில் கூவச் செய்வேன்
உன் அறையில் கூடு கட்டிட
கட்டளையிடுவேன் அதிகாலை
உன்னை எழுப்பிட உத்தரவு
இடுவேன்
Because... Female: Because...
Today is your birthday
Because today is your birthday
ஏன் என்றால்
ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள்
ஏன் என்றால் உன்
பிறந்தநாள்
Reaching the top of mountains, cutting ice blocks
And pouring them into your bathtub
Filtering the warmth of the sun
I will clear away the excess chill
மலையுச்சி எட்டி
பனிக்கட்டி வெட்டி உன்
குளியல் தொட்டியில் கொட்டி
சூரியனை வடிகட்டி பனி எல்லாம்
ஒதுக்கிடுவேன்
Just so you can bathe in it
I will gently lower you in after checking the comfort, yeah yeah yeah
Catching blind female fish, oh oh oh
I will let them swim along with you, oh
உன்னை அதில்
குளிக்கத்தான் இதம்
பார்த்து இறக்கிடுவேன்
யா யா யா கண்ணில்லா
பெண் மீன்கள் பிடித்து ஓ
ஓ ஓ உன்னோடு நான் நீந்த
விடுவேன் ஓ
When you finish bathing and need to dry off
I will fold my love and hand it to you as a towel
நீ குளித்து முடித்து
துவட்டத்தான் என் காதல்
மடித்துத் தந்திடுவேன்
Turning my heart into a bakery
I will bake a cake for you
On top of candle flowers
I will light my love as a flame
ஆண் & பெண் :
{ ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள் } (2)
If you blow on it, it will not go out, my dear
You cannot even cut it
Just close your eyes, my dear
Ask for whatever you wish
நெஞ்சத்தை
வெதுப்பகமாக்கி
அணிச்சல் செய்திடுவேன்
மெழுகுப் பூக்களின் மேலே
என் காதல் ஏற்றிடுவேன்
Because today is your birthday
நீ ஊதினால்
அணையாதடி நீ
வெட்டவே முடியாதடி
உன் கண்களை நீ மூடடி
என்ன வேண்டுமோ
அதைக் கேளடி
ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள்
ஆண் & பெண் :
ஏன் என்றால்
உன் பிறந்தநாள்
