ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
நீ சொன்ன வார்த்தை எல்லாம்
நான் ஓதும் வேதம் ஆக
As various thoughts come
And stitch through my heart,
As various thoughts come
And stitch through my heart,
All the words you spoke
Have become scriptures for me to recite.
என்னை உன் கண்ணில் கண்டு கொள்ளவா
தோள் தொட்டால் வானில் நீந்தி செல்லவா
தேன்துளி பேச்சில் சேர்த்தாய்
தித்திப்பை நெஞ்சில் வார்த்தாய்
Shall I discover myself in your eyes?
If you touch my shoulder, shall I float and swim in the sky?
You added drops of honey to your speech,
You poured sweetness into my heart.
ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து...
ஆஅ....ஹா....
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
As various thoughts come...
Hoo..oo
And stitch through my heart,
உன்னை தொட்டு வந்த பின்னால்
காற்றில் ஏதோ மாற்றம் கண்டேன்
வாசம் வண்ணம் பூசி கொண்டு
தென்றல் வந்தே நிற்க கண்டேன்
After brushing past you,
I noticed a change in the breeze.
Female: Coated with fragrance and color,
I saw the gentle breeze come and stand before me.
போகும் வழி எங்கும்
மௌனம் என்னை கிள்ளும்
இருந்தும் தூரங்கள் செல்வோம்
Everywhere on the path we travel,
Silence pinches me.
Yet, let us go long distances.
பயணம் எங்கே
முடிந்தால் என்ன
உன்னை தாங்குவேன்
நான் வீழ்ந்திடும் வரை
Wherever the journey
May end, so what?
I will support you,
Until the moment I fall.
ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
............................
The moment I gently lean on your shoulder,
A new umbilical cord blooms between us.
Female: If my heart burns with thirst,
Your lap becomes the remedy that cools it.
தோளில் மெல்ல சாயும் நொடி
பூக்கும் புது தொப்புள் கொடி
தாகம் கொண்டே உள்ளம் வெந்தால்
தீர்வை தரும் உந்தன் மடி
Mother, father, relatives,
And the bond that touches the soul,
You have become everything to me.
Before the trace of my life vanishes,
Just to gaze at you,
I will stand praying.
அன்னை தந்தை சொந்தம்
உயிர்தொடும் பந்தம்
எல்லாமே ஆனாயே நீயே
உயிரின் தடம் அழியும் முன்னாள்
உன்னை பார்த்திட
நான் வேண்டியே நிற்ப்பேன்
As various thoughts come,
Female: As various thoughts come,
Male: And stitch through my heart,
Female: And stitch through my heart,
ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து
ஏதோதோ எண்ணம் வந்து
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
என் நெஞ்சை தைத்து போக
All the words you spoke
Have become scriptures for me to recite.
Female: Myself in your eyes,
Shall I find?
Male: If you touch my shoulder,
Shall I swim away into the sky?
You added drops of honey to your speech,
Both: You poured sweetness into my heart.
நீ சொன்ன வார்த்தை எல்லாம்
நான் ஓதும் வேதம் ஆக
என்னை உன் கண்ணில்
கண்டு கொள்ளவா
தோள் தொட்டால்
வானில் நீந்தி செல்லவா
தேன்துளி பேச்சில் சேர்த்தாய்
இருவர் :
தித்திப்பை நெஞ்சில் வார்த்தாய்
