Nee udai naan idai unnai urangum pozhuthum naan uduthiruppen
Nee pagal naan oli endrum unnai mattum saarndhe naan iruppen

Hoobaale

You are the wind, I am the tree, I sway to your every word
You are the rain, I am the earth, I soak you in wherever you fall
You are the night, I am the star, I shine only until you're here
You are the wave, I am the shore, I embrace you however you crash

You are the body, I am the shadow, you needn't fall, I will fall for you
You are the branch, I am the leaf, I live only until I fall for you
You are the eye, I am the eyelash, I flutter only until I see you
You are the breath, I am the body, I allow only you to breathe life into me

You are the sky, I am the land, I forever reside beneath you
You are the meaning, I am the word, I disappear in the meaning you give
You are the sun, I am the cuckoo, I sing only upon seeing your arrival
You are the rise, I am the set, I wait only to rise and set with you
You are the day, I am the light, I exist only to embrace you forever
