Sometimes, it’s sad when it seems like it’s nearly impossible for you to be in a relationship with someone you’ve set your eyes – and heart – on. But all you need to do is look at it in a more optimistic way – just let your feelings be known without having any expectations of them liking you back.

You just want to call them your boo, that’s it.

Lyrics: แค่อยากเรียกเธอที่รัก แต่เธอไม่ต้องมารัก

One of the biggest fears when it comes to expressing our feelings for someone is that we’re afraid that they might change how they act after he or she knows how we feel. So, the only thing you can do is to keep it a secret. 

But, when your love for someone hits its peak, you will need to tell the one you love that you can no longer refuse – you really love him or her!

Lyrics: ปฏิเสธอย่างไร เมื่อรักเธอจนไม่อาจจะถอนตัว

Pronunciation: Pa-ti-sed Yang Rai Mue Rak Ter Chon Mai Ard Ja Thon Tua

Translation: How can I pretend that I don’t love you when I really do?

We’ve all dreamt of the “perfect” boyfriend or girlfriend. The title, “Pae Tang”, is a special phrase in Thai. In this context, it refers to that lovesick condition when you completely fall for someone. 

This song expresses just that – a burst of feelings when you fall for someone who is exactly your type. Everything the person does will impress you, gradually making you fall in love with them more and more.

Lyrics: ให้ทำยังไงใจมันถึงปลง หลงรักเธอจนหมดใจ

Pronunciation: Hai Tam Yang Ngai Jai Man Tung Plong Lhong Rak Ter Chon Mhod Jai

When you’re in a new relationship with someone, it’s totally normal for feelings of jealousy to arise now and then. But this is something you probably need to reconcile before things get bad. This isn’t your typical cheesy love song, but if you’ve got a heavy feeling in your heart that you want to make known to your partner, then this tune might help you a lot.

Lyrics: ถ้าไม่รักเธอแล้ว จะให้ไปรักแมวที่ไหน

Pronunciation: Tar Mai Rak Ter Laew Ja Hai Pai Rak Maew Tee Nhai

Flowers are a classic symbol of love which partners exchange with each other. In this Thai song, the guy prepares some flowers to give to his girl. And though the flowers start to dry out because of how long he takes to express his feelings for her, his love only gets stronger.

Moral of the story? True love might take some time, but it’ll never die.

Lyrics: ต่อให้ตะวันลบเลือน ดาวและเดือนลับลา คําที่ว่าฉันรักเธอ ไม่มีวันลดลง

If you’re familiar with the Thai language and culture, you might understand that some words and expressions are used specifically for intense feelings of the heart. Besides new-gen love songs, old-school Thai songwriters have a knack for using these words to express their feelings in love songs. 

Trab Tulee Din is one of those songs that Thais know and love. Save this one for that soulmate in your life you know you’re ready to spend the rest of your life with.

Lyrics: อยู่กับฉันได้ไหม ให้แก่เฒ่าเป็นตายาย ในบั้นปลายสุดท้ายของดวงชีวัน
