When saying good morning,
I will serve you coffee.
When you sleep at good night,
I will come as moonlight.
பெண்ணே உன் புன்னகை கேட்டு
ரிங்டோனாய் வைப்பேன்
கண்ணே நீ கனவில் வந்தால்
இமை ரெண்டை தைப்பேன்
Girl, I will record your laughter,
And set it as my ringtone.
My dear, if you appear in my dream,
I will stitch my two eyelids closed.
பூமி மேலுள்ள காதலெல்லாம்
பூக்களாக்கி நான் கொடுப்பேனே
கொஞ்சம் உன் காதல் தானே
பதிலாய் கேட்கின்றேன் ஹோ ஹோ
All the love that exists in this world,
I will gather into flowers and offer to you.
Only a small portion of your love,
Is all I ask for in return, ha ha!

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Yeno Yeno' is a playful and breezy romantic song expressing the overwhelming, euphoric feelings of falling head over heels in love. The protagonist reflects on how love has completely transformed his world, causing him to feel weightless like cotton, float like a satellite, and lose himself in thought day and night. Filled with modern metaphors and colloquial expressions, the protagonist promises total devotion—from serving morning coffee to capturing her smile as a ringtone, and wanting to lock his eyelids shut just to preserve a dream of her.
