Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu pudam potta thangakkanal idhu kanal idhu kaadhal (3)
Inavaadham pesaadhu kaadhal

Inampuriyaa sandhosham kaadhal.. Kaadhal!
Pagaliravu nokkaadhu kaadhal
Palapoorgal undaakkum kaadhal
Palaperkku puriyaadhu kaadhal.. Kaadhal!
Yenendru theriyaamal varume

Pudhiraana maanuda pudhaiyale kaadhal kaadhal kaadhal!
Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu pudam potta thangakkanal idhu kanal idhu kaadhal (2)
Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu pudam potta thangakkanal idhu kanal idhu kaadhal (2)
Anaikondu thaduthaalum nillaa
Punal idhu pudam potta thangakkanal idhu kanal idhu kaadhal (2)
Nin idhazhgalin sezhippinil
Imaigalin azhaippinil
Inimaigal muzhuvadhum
Unil mattum kandida
Enaiye marandhidum
Eriporul thedida
Kallaiyum kaviyaai aakkum kaadhale
Kadal kollum nilam pola unnil
Kalandhene enai naanum kanne
Marandhene marandhene unnaale
Oh… (2)
Nilam kollum kadal pola unnil kalandhene
Enai naanum kanne marandhene
Irai nilai kondene!
Irai nilai kondene! (2)
Even if blocked by a dam, it will not stop
This is a stream, this is a refined golden ember, this ember is love (3)
Love does not speak of caste or creed
Love does not see language barriers
Love is an indefinable joy.. Love!
Love does not observe day or night
Love creates many wars
Love is incomprehensible to many.. Love!
It comes without us knowing why
If it is understood, the mystery vanishes
Love, love, love is a mysterious human treasure!
Even if blocked by a dam, it will not stop
This is a stream, this is a refined golden ember, this ember is love (2)
Even if blocked by a dam, it will not stop
This is a stream, this is a refined golden ember, this ember is love (2)
Even if blocked by a dam, it will not stop
This is a stream, this is a refined golden ember, this ember is love (2)
In the richness of your lips
In the invitation of your eyelashes
To find all sweetness
Only within you
To completely forget myself
In search of fuel
Oh love, that turns even a stone into poetry
Like land engulfed by the sea, within you
I merged, my dear, forgetting myself
I forgot myself, I forgot because of you
Oh… (2)
Like a sea engulfing the land, I merged within you
I forgot myself too, my dear
I attained a divine state!
I attained a divine state! (2)

Beyond the translation

Song interpretation

Anai Kondu Thaduthaalum is an energetic and poetic ode to the unstoppable, transcendent power of love from the series Uppu Puli Kaaram. The song opens with vivid imagery of love as a dam-bursting river and a refined golden flame that disregards artificial human divisions like race, language, or time. It portrays love as a baffling, beautiful human treasure that remains a mystery—one that can spark conflicts yet transform even cold stone into art.

Metaphor

“Punal idhu pudam potta thangakkanal idhu kanal idhu kaadhal (3)”

Love is directly equated to an uncontrollable rushing stream and a refined golden ember.

Simile

“Kadal kollum nilam pola unnil”

The lover's complete surrender and immersion into the beloved is compared to land being overtaken by the sea using 'pola' (like).

Hyperbole

“Kallaiyum kaviyaai aakkum kaadhale”

Love is poetically exaggerated as a force capable of turning even unfeeling stone into living poetry.
