Hey, you left me crying out in despair!

Hey, shattered into pieces, I stand here all alone!

You left me crying out in despair, girl!

Shattered into pieces, I stand here, don't I?

Just for looking at you once,

I haven't slept for a whole week!

Catching fire without even touching,

You are a painting made by splashing milk over daylight!

The whole town knows all about you!

You demon girl, I surrendered to your beauty, thananananaa...

Crazy girl, I'm swooning in your love, my sweet papaya!

You just burst like a firecracker, bursting, bursting, bursting!

Oh my, you're totally blowing me away, blowing me away, blowing me away!

You casually flash a smile, smile, smile,

And smash my heart to bits!

Until the day I laid eyes on you,

I never had time to talk about girls, girl!

Ever since I saw you and fell for you,

There's nothing else I talk about but you, girl!

My heart panics, it panics!

Just one glance from you, and it panics!

It shatters, it shatters!

Under your crushing, knockout beauty, it shatters into pieces!

You left me screaming and falling apart completely!

Hey, you shattered me and left me crying out!

You demon girl, in your beauty...

Crazy girl, in your love...

Hey, you left me crying out in despair!

Hey, shattered into pieces, I stand here all alone!

You left me crying out in despair, girl!

Shattered into pieces, I stand here, don't I?

My sweet papaya, you just burst like a firecracker!

My sweet papaya, bursting like a firecracker,

Bursting, bursting, bursting!

Oh my, you're totally blowing me away, blowing me away, blowing me away!

You casually flash a smile, smile, smile,

And smash my heart to bits!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Kadhara Kadhara' from Anbarivu is an energetic love track expressing the protagonist's overwhelming fascination and obsession with his beloved. He hyperbolically describes how a single look from her has disrupted his sleep and life, leaving his heart completely shattered and flustered. He compares her beauty to striking daylight and fireworks, admitting that before meeting her, he never cared to talk about women, but now she is the sole focus of his existence.
