(1)Kakkai siraginile nanda laala,
nindran kariya niram thondruthaye nanda laala,

In the wings of crow, oh lord,
all I see is your ebony complexion, oh lord,

nindran pachai niram thondruthaye nanda laala,

In all the trees that I see around me, oh lord,
all I see is your green complexion, oh lord,

(3)ketkum oliyil ellaam nanda laala,
nindran geedham isaikkudhada nanda laala,

In all the sounds that I hear, oh lord,
all I hear is the resonating melody of you, oh lord,

(4)theekkul viralai vaithal nanda laala,
ninnai theendum inbam thondrudhada nanda laala

when I keep my fingers into fire, oh lord,
all I can feel is the ecstasy of your touch, oh lord
