Oh Azhage Oh AzhageOh, beauty, oh, beauty,
Thotta Sinungi VaneYou’re a sensitive ‘touch-me-not’ vine.
Nee Sinunga Nee SinungaWhen you shy away, when you shy away,
Ponnai PularudheThe dawn breaks in gold.
Adhil Nenjam MalarudheAnd in it, my heart blossoms.
Oh Maname Oh ManameOh, my soul, oh, my soul,
Minnum Paniyin KeezheBeneath the glistening mist,
Poi Oliya Poi OliyaIt wants to go and hide, to go and hide,
Konjam YengudheYearning just a little.
Adhil Thanjam ThedudheSearching for its sanctuary there.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Thoora Alaigal Kalai NanaikkumThe distant waves drench my feet,
Maya Nadhi IdhuThis is a mystical river.
Megam Thaninthu Vasal ThelikkumThe clouds descend to sprinkle the doorway,
Thooya Mazhai IdhuThis is a pure rain.
Vizhakkal Dhorum OoramagaAt the edge of every glance,
Nindru Parkka NerumI’m forced to just stand and watch.
Nilakkal Indri Vanam KoodaWithout a foothold, even the sky,
Mounamaga MarumWill fall silent.
Oru Veedu ParivoduWhen a home, with compassion,
Varaverka Neelum BothuExtends its welcome to you,
Athanodu UraiyaduYou should speak with it.
Adhu Pol Oru Varam YedhuWhat blessing could ever be like that?
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Adangadha KatreYou’re an untamable wind.
Oh Azhage Oh AzhageOh, beauty, oh, beauty,
Thotta Sinungi VaneYou’re a sensitive ‘touch-me-not’ vine.
Nee Sinunga Nee SinungaWhen you shy away, when you shy away,
Ponnai PularudheThe dawn breaks in gold.
Adhil Nenjam MalarudheAnd in it, my heart blossoms.
Katru Kumizhi PolaA happiness that’s like an air bubble,
Udainthu Pogum MagizhvinaiSo fragile it could break,
Pottri Valarthu Pottri ValarthuYou’re the one who cherishes and nurtures it,
Kakkum OruvanaiThe one who keeps it safe.
Thuzhavi Thedi Kannin MunbuTime has searched and sought you out,
Kondu Kattum KalamAnd brought you right before my eyes.
Kanavil Kooda NervadhillaiThis kind of magic doesn’t happen,
Nerndhadhindha MayamNot even in a dream.
Avan Yaro ThoduvanoWho is he? Will he ever reach me?
Tholaidhoora Kodu ThanoIs he a distant, untouchable line?
Vazhi Thero VaralaroIs he a new path, a grand arrival, or a piece of history?
Puriya Kurunagai ThanoOr is he just an enigmatic smile?
Oh Azhage Oh AzhageOh, beauty, oh, beauty,
Thotta Sinungi VaneYou’re a sensitive ‘touch-me-not’ vine.
Nee Sinunga Nee SinungaWhen you shy away, when you shy away,
Ponnai PularudheThe dawn breaks in gold.
