Tell me, my love, tell me,
Who is deep inside your heart?
Oh, tell me, my love, tell me,
Who is deep inside your heart?
Don't ask me like this, my sweetheart,
I'll always say it's you, only you!
Without saying it, it won't go away,
this distance between us.
And even if I say it, it won't listen,
this restless spirit of love.
That's true, isn't it?
What more is there to say?
Tell me, my love, tell me,
Mm mm, oh oh...
Who is deep inside your heart?
Oh... even though there are so many
lovely women as radiant as the moon,
why is it me who fills your heart?
What is the reason? Mm mm...
Love born of mere physical beauty is something else,
who in this whole town is as truly blessed as you?
If I feel shy to give one,
will you come and ask for a kiss?
Oh girl, I don't just want a kiss,
I need all of you!
Tell me, my love, tell me,
Aahh...
Who is deep inside your heart?
Oh, don't ask me like this,
my sweetheart,
Ah ha ha...
I'll say it is you, only you...
Ah ha ha, will I always
remain in your thoughts?
Once I come and become yours,
will you change? Oh ho ho...
Change this thoughtless,
senseless talk!
Without you, there is no
breath of life for me.
When we grow old,
will you push me away and leave?
You are my very life—if I push you away,
I will surely die!
Don't ask like this, my sweetheart,
Ah ha ha,
I'll say it is you, only you!
Oh he he,
Without saying it, the distance won't fade away,
Even if I say it, this love spirit won't listen,
That's true, isn't it? What more is there to say?
Tell me, my love, tell me,
Mm mm, oh oh...
Who is deep inside your heart?
Oh oh haa...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Aiththaanae Aiththaanae is a playful and romantic Tamil folk duet from the movie Mudhal Idam. The female protagonist inquisitively teases her maternal cousin (Aiththan), asking him to confess who occupies his heart and questioning whether his devotion will stand the test of time as they age together. In response, the male protagonist affectionately assures her that she is the sole owner of his heart, emphasizing that his love transcends superficial charm and that she is as essential to him as the air he breathes.
