{ யாரை கேட்டும்
பூக்காது காதல் தாவரம்

ம்ம்ம் ஹ்ம்ம்
Love plant does not bloom asking anyone's permission,
The plant of love.
Without experiencing a look of love,
There is no one at all.
Mmm.. hmm…..
என் ஒருத்தியே
கன்னகொத்தி போறியே
என்ன தொரத்தியே தொட்டு
தொட்டு போறியே
My unique girl, you peck at my eyes and go...
Pecking my eyes and going...
Chasing me, touching me again and again, you go...
எதுகையாய்
மோனையாய் இருவரும்
இருந்த நாள் எல்லாம்
கவிதைபோல் இனிக்கிறதே
Like second-letter rhyme (Edhugai) and first-letter rhyme (Monai),
All the days both of us spent together,
Are sweet like poetry.
இனித்திடும்
இதயத்தை இவள்
விழி எறும்பை
போலத்தான்
அடிக்கடி கடிக்கிறதே
This heart that has become sweet,
Her eyes, just like an ant,
Bite it frequently.
பழகிய விழி
யாவும் அழகிய
கனவாகும் பழகிய
விழி யாவும் அழகிய
கனவாகும்
All the eyes that have become familiar,
Become beautiful dreams.
All the eyes that have become familiar,
Become beautiful dreams.
காதல் கதவினை
நீ முதல் முதல் திறந்தாயே
காற்றின் முதுகினில் நான்
முதல் முதல் பறந்தேனே
The door of love, you,
Opened for the very first time.
On the back of the wind, I,
Flew for the very first time.
அன்னை தந்தை
இல்லாமல் பிறக்கும்
பிள்ளை எதுவென்றால்
காதல் தானடி காதல்
வந்த பின்னாலே கடலின்
மேலே முளைத்தாலும்
ரோஜா பூச்செடி
Without a mother or a father,
If you ask what child is born,
It is love alone, my dear...
After love arrives,
Even if it sprouts over the ocean,
It is a rose plant.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Kaadhal Thaavaram' from the film 'Koditta Idangalai Nirappuga' expresses the natural, uninhibited nature of love. The lyricist metaphorically frames love as a plant that blooms freely without needing permission from anyone, asserting that every human life is touched by love at some point. The protagonist describes the enchanting actions of his lover, whose playful glances tease his heart like ant bites and whose presence makes every moment feel as sweet as structured poetry. The second section delves into philosophical reflections on love, describing it as a child born without parents—an uncreated force that arises purely from emotion. It highlights how love makes extraordinary things feel possible, such as a rose bush growing amidst the ocean. Ultimately, it celebrates the exhilarating feeling of opening the doors of love and flying freely on the back of the wind.

Metaphor (Uruvagaimai)
“Kaadhal thaavaram”
Love is directly metaphorized as a plant ('Thaavaram') that grows and blooms spontaneously without seeking permission.
Prosodic Metaphor / Simile (Edhugai & Monai)
“Edhugaiyaai monaiyaai iruvarum irundha naal ellaam kavaidhaipol inikiradhae”
The song uses classical Tamil poetic structural elements—Edhugai (second-letter rhyme) and Monai (first-letter alliteration)—to describe how seamlessly two lovers complement each other like poetry.
Simile (Upamai)
“Ival vizhi erumbai polathaan adikkadi kadikiradhae”
Her gaze biting his sweet heart is directly compared to an ant ('erumbai pola').
Monai (Initial Alliteration)
“Kaatrin mudhuginil naan / Mudhal mudhal parandhenae”
Repetition of initial consonants creates a musical quality across the line.
