காத்துல தூக்கி
என்னை வீசிபுட்டாலே ....ஹேய்ய்
பம்பரம் போல் என்னை
அட சுத்த விட்டாலே
சரியா இது மொறையா
கொஞ்சும் சொல்லி போயேன்டி
Lifting me up in the air,
She threw me away... hey!
Like a spinning top,
Oh, she made me spin around!
Is this right? Is this fair?
Speak to me a little before you go, girl.
உன்னை கொஞ்ச நிக்குறேனே
என்னை கெஞ்ச வெக்கிறியே
அழகே அடி ஏனோ
என்னை அலக்கழிக்கிறியே
I am standing here to pamper you,
But you are making me beg!
Oh beauty, why
Are you teasing and tossing me around?
எம்மாடி.....ஏ.....தாங்காதடி

எம்மாடி.....ஏ.....தாங்காதடி
சொல்லாமதான் போகாதடி
Oh girl... oh, I can't bear it!
Don't leave without telling me!
Oh girl... oh, I can't bear it!
Don't leave without telling me!
கண்ணாலதான் கரெண்ட்ட வெச்சி
ஷாக் அடிக்காத
Don't use your eyes like live current
And give me an electric shock!
முட்டை கண்ண உருட்டி என்ன
மெரள வெக்கிறியே
செஞ்சி வெச்ச சிலைய போல
அழகா நிக்கிறியே
Rolling your big round eyes,
You are startling and scaring me!
Like a beautifully sculpted statue,
You stand so gorgeously!
காதல் கோலத்தில் அழகா என்னை
புடிச்சு முக்குறியே
அடி மூச்சு முட்டும் நேரம் பார்த்து
நீந்த வெக்கிறியே
In the pond of love,
You grab me and dunk me under!
Seeing the exact moment I run out of breath,
You make me swim!
ராசத்தியே அடி ராசத்தியே
ஏனோ என்னை நீ சிணுங்க வெக்கிறியே
ரா தூக்கத்தில் என் கனவுல நொழைஞ்சு
பாய போல என்னை உருட்டி தள்ளுறியே
Oh princess, hey princess,
Why do you make me whine and sulk?
Entering my dreams during night sleep,
You roll me up like a mat and push me away!
எம்மாடி.....ஏ.....தாங்காதடி
சொல்லாமதான் போகாதடி
எம்மாடி.....ஏ.....தாங்காதடி
சொல்லாமதான் போகாதடி
Oh girl... oh, I can't bear it!
Don't leave without telling me!
Oh girl... oh, I can't bear it!
Don't leave without telling me!

Despite her teasing, playfulness, and elusive behavior, he is completely captivated by her sculpted grace and yearns for her attention. The refrain emphasizes his plea for her not to walk away silently, capturing the sweet agonizing joy of romantic infatuation.
