.......................
Girl, please come here
Give me a kiss
Dhigududhamba
It is you
I am your beloved man
Leaving all relatives far behind
I pushed them aside and came
You alone are enough
I don't need anything else
Like a carrom board
And its coins
Is guys' friendship, girl
When a striker called love comes
It scatters them all in a flash, girl
Each and every coin
It locks them down
And pockets them, girl
But if the striker alone goes inside
It will pop back outside, girl
Sprinkling powder
Checking the slick surface
It plays the game of love, girl
Setting up a trap
All the friends
It wipes them out completely, girl..
: Knowing everything
Understanding the trouble
We still fall in love, girl
Even if fate blindfolds us
And leaves us stranded in the wilderness
Love alone is enough, girl
Girl, please come here
Give me a kiss
Dhigududhamba
It is you
I am your beloved man
Leaving all relatives far behind
I pushed them aside and came
You alone are enough
I don't need anything else
Hey you..
Hey boy..
Come and dance with me
Hey you..
Hey boy..
Come and groove with me
Boasting about
Your friends
Don't act in front of me
Like a good guy
A guy who puts on acts
Is not liked by a girl
Putting up fake drama
That is enough
Change your approach, guy
You'll turn into a fake in the group
Tone it down, guy
Hey, was it me
Who came to you
And asked you to propose to me?
Brightening your face
Changing your voice
Saying 'I love you'
You were the one who said it..
They call me
They call me
Glamorous
They call me
They call me
Dangerous
They call me
Babylicious
They call me
Glamorous
I’m irresistible
I’m just dangerous
Don'ttouch me baby baby
Don’t come too close to me
I’ll be your new addiction
I’ll make you burn with me
Ask around in my neighborhood
My father is classy and grand, man
If you become his son-in-law
You too will become top class, man
Hey
30 cousin girls for me
Are standing in line, girl
Just because I loved you
My heart gets caught in trouble, girl
Enough with fighting
Come closer, girl
Lean on me, girl
If a kiss
Is what you want
Ask me directly, man..
Girl, please come here
Give me a kiss
Female: Dhigududhamba
It is me
You alone are my man
Leaving all relatives far behind
I pushed them aside and came
Female: You alone are enough, man
I don't need anything else, man

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma' expresses a playful back-and-forth banter between lovers, contrasting the bond of male friendship with the disruptive nature of romance. The protagonist compares young men's friendship to coins on a carrom board that get scattered and pocketed when the 'striker' of love enters the picture. Despite knowing the complications love brings, the male lead reaffirms his commitment and affection for his partner.
