Yenna thaan inbam kandaayo,

INayil   yezhil kaana  vizhayum  yennilum,

Migavum adhikamo, adhisayamo kuzhal isayil

What type of joys did you see,

IN me   who wants to see  beauty in your company,

Is your  singing in flute  more great  and more wonderful

Anupallavi

Punnakayaadum  pullendra  kuzhal oothum,

Punithane, yengal  punniyane,

Munnazhakai kandaal mohamigum  yendru cholli,

Pinnazhagai    arulum pommane

Oh holy one  who plays flute along with smile,

Feeling that if I see the beauty  of your front, passion will  increase,

Oh Great  one who shows  the beauty of his back

Charanam

Alailayai  charinthu kuzhal aadave, kaaththil,

ANi Aniyai paranthu  idai  moodave-

THalayani  kambalam  puyam koodave-Athai kandu,

Darisitha pothu yandhan naanam paranthodave

When my hair moved  in the air like waves,

And  moving in air   when it  broadened  and,hid my hips,

When I saw you  bringing the pillow and blanket  ,

In your hand, my shyness  spread  all   over
