Koduthaalum KuraiyaadhuIt doesn’t decrease, no matter how much you give.
Eduthaalum TheeraadhuIt never runs out, no matter how much you take.
Thaduthaalum ThaniyaadhaIt won’t subside, even if you try to block it.
Anbukku VilaiyedhuWhat price could you ever put on love?
Koduthaalum KuraiyaadhuIt won’t diminish, no matter how much you share.
Eduthaalum TheeraadhuIt’s never exhausted, no matter how much you take.
Thaduthaalum ThaniyaadhaIt won’t fade away, even if you try to restrain it.
