இசை ஆசிரியர் :
தாமரை
Some dizzy trance, some sweet intoxication
It was you who gave birth to it inside me
You gave it, you gave it
ஏதோ மயக்கம் ஏதோ மயக்கம்
எனக்குள் பிறக்கும் நீதான் தந்தாய்
தந்தாய் .. தந்தாய்
Whispering something, saying something
Pinching my heart, you came close to me
You came, you came
ஏதோ சொல்லி ஏதோ சொல்லி
நெஞ்சை கிள்ளி நீதான் பக்கம் வந்தாய்
வந்தாய்...வந்தாய்
You arrived like a soothing rain cloud
As the heart opened wide like a flower
I discovered womanhood within my soul
For the very first time
ஒரு மழை மேகம் போல வந்தாய்
மலர் போல மனம் திறந்தாள்
ஒரு பெண்மை நெஞ்சினில் அடைந்தேன்
முதன் முதலாய்
There is a stumble in my stride
There is a fresh new look in my attire
I watched the clock ticking away
Drop by drop, slowly
தடுமாற்றம் என் நடையில்
ஒரு மாற்றம் உன் உடையில்
கடிகாரம் நகர்ந்திட கண்டேன்
துளி துளியாய்
Some dizzy trance, some sweet intoxication
It was you who gave birth to it inside me
You gave it, you gave it
ஏதோ மயக்கம் ஏதோ மயக்கம்
எனக்குள் பிறக்கும் நீதான் தந்தாய்
தந்தாய் .. தந்தாய்
Every morning when I wake up
If you are right next to me
I will say that is enough for me in life
தினம் காலையில் நீ எழுந்தால்
எனதருகே நீ இருந்தால்
போதும் என்பேன் வாழ்வில் எனக்கும்
As far as your gaze can reach
My feet will walk back and forth
That boundary alone is enough for me
உன் பார்வை படும் தொலைவே
என் கால்கள் போய் வருமே
அந்த எல்லை போதும் எனக்கு
When the gentle breeze touches me
When dreams come and wrap around me
Other than you, no other thought
Has ever existed until now and beyond
காற்றில் என்னை தீண்டிடும் போதும்
கனவு வந்து அழுந்திடும் போதும்
உன்னையன்றி வேறாெரு எண்ணம்
இதுவரை இருந்ததில்லை இன்னும்
A flower bed is my bed
Yet I remain alone in deep longing
Sleep is lost somewhere far away
பூ மெத்தை என் கட்டில்
நான் மட்டும் ஏக்கத்தில்
தூக்கங்கள் எங்கோ தொலைவில்
Some dizzy trance, some sweet intoxication
It was you who gave birth to it inside me
You gave it, you gave it
ஏதோ மயக்கம் ஏதோ மயக்கம்
எனக்குள் பிறக்கும் நீதான் தந்தாய்
தந்தாய் .. தந்தாய்
Your traces are everywhere in this room
Your names are inscribed on all the walls
Even sticking them everywhere isn't enough
அறை எங்கும் உன் தடங்கள்
சுவர் எல்லாம் உன் பெயர்கள்
ஒட்டி வைத்தும் போதவில்லையே
Like the fine ridges on my fingertips
It is you running through them
Even with endless kisses, my desire never ends
விரல் எங்கும் ரேகைகளாய்
நீ தானே ஓடுகிறாய்
முத்தம் இட்டும் தீரவில்லையே
To live a hundred years with you
Desire ignited and blazed like a fire
As torrential rain fell to bless us
We stood silently as the quiet deepened
நூறு ஆண்டு உன்னுடன் வாழ
ஆசை வந்து என் நிலம் மோத
வாழ்த்துச் சொல்ல மாமழை வீழ
அறிந்து நின்றோம் மெளனங்கள் ஆழ
To live without you now
Is impossible unlike before
Male : Shall I come with you right now?
நீ இன்றி நான் வாழ
முடியாதே உன் போல
இப்போதே கூட வரவா
Some dizzy trance, some sweet intoxication
It was you who gave birth to it inside me
You gave it, you gave it
ஏதோ மயக்கம் ஏதோ மயக்கம்
எனக்குள் பிறக்கும் நீதான் தந்தாய்
தந்தாய் தந்தாய்
Whispering something, saying something
Pinching my heart, you came close to me
You came, you came
ஏதோ சொல்லி ஏதோ சொல்லி
நெஞ்சை கிள்ளி நீதான் பக்கம் வந்தாய்
வந்தாய் வந்தாய்
He came just like a rain cloud
As the heart opened wide like a flower
I saw myself fully as a woman
For the very first time
ஒரு மழை போல அவள்தான்
மலர் போல மனம் திறந்தாள்
ஒரு பெண்ணாய் கண்டேன்
முதன் முதலாய் நான்
There is a stumble in my stride
There is a fresh new look in my attire
I watched the clock ticking away
Drop by drop, slowly
தடுமாற்றம் என் நடையில்
ஒரு மாற்றம் உன் உடையில்
கடிகாரம் நகர்ந்திட கண்டேன்
துளி துளியாய்
Yedho mayakkam yedho mayakkam
Some dizzy trance, some sweet intoxication
Enakkul pirakkum needhaan thandhaai

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Yedho Mayakkam' is a deeply romantic song expressing the intoxicating trance and self-discovery brought on by falling in love. The female protagonist reflects on how love has transformed her, bringing a gentle stumble to her step, a new aesthetic to her attire, and a newfound sense of womanhood. Small moments—like waking up next to her lover or feeling the gentle wind—are elevated into profound emotional experiences.
