Okay my tamil is not great but here goes:

Vinnaithandi varuvaya means "will you cross the skies and come to me?", and thats kind of the theme of the song as well as the film. It's also a reference to a really famous line in ANOTHER a.r.rahman song from  1994 in the movie "kadhalan" which you can find here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkkrkXzKCDo

Ohrey uyire, (oh my life)
Unnakagha thudithaen, vinmeeney.. (for you i have suffered, my star)
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa..  (will you cross the skies and come?)
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaaahh.. (will you cross the skies and come?)
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.. (will you cross the skies and come?)
Vinmeeney varuvayaaahh.. (my star, will you come?)

Neytrum iravil, (yesterday in the night)
Unnodu iruthaen,  (I was with you)
Athai neeyum, (and you)
Maranthaaya maranthaayahh.. (have forgotten x2) (here he is basically saying that you forgot the time we spent together)
Kanavodu vizhaiyaada..  (We are playing in our dreams)
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.. (will you cross the skies and come?)
Nilavae nee varuvaayah..  (Oh you, the moon, will you come?)

Ohrey uyire    (this is a repeat verse)  
Unnakagha thudithaen, vinmeeney.. 
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.. 
Ooohhh..ooohhh 
Ooohhh..ooohhh 

Uyire neeyum naanum,  (my life, you and I both)
Pirinthadhu puthirrr-pu maiyathil thaaney..ooohhh  
Iruthuruvam sern-antha orr-idam,   (okay these two sentences are hard to translate, but their roughly speaking about the thought of separating, and what would happen if they did)
Anggatheythaan naam sernthomey..(it was in that place that we came together) 
Inimezh naanum neeyum pirivathillai..anbeyy.. (from now on neither you or I will separate, my love)

Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa..  (will you cross the skies and come?)
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.. 
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.. 
Vinmeeney varuvaayahhh  (my star, will you come?)

YUP! there you go. its a very breezy and surreal song and its overall meaning and sound both imply that its sort of just a boy thinking about his lover in a very dreamy  way. It is neither tragic or happy, but he is reminiscing about the idea of their romance itself, almost like its fading or potentially may end. Thus it sounds slightly melancholic.

Its awesome, its a great song liverach, the vinaythaandi soundtrack is generally pretty good.
