Kannakuzhikaaraa (Kannakuzhikaaraa)
Mundakkannu veeraa (Mundakkannu veeraa)
Ada saami enna paarudaa
Usuroda odachi podudaa
Sagasa kaaraa maamisa theraa
Naerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Sagasa kaaraa maamisa theraa
Nerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Ithana kalam engadaa ponae
Ippadi vandhu kolluriye
Ethana peru suthiye vandhaan
Nenjukkul yaarum sikkalaye
Thanni kudicha nee vikki nikkura
Thonda kuzhiyil sugamaa (sugamaa)
Kannu muzhicha nee kitta nikkura
Nenju kuzhiyil mugamaa
Meesaiya paarthu aasaya korthu
Othayil naanum nikkirenae
Sagasa kaaraa maamisa theraa
Nerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Kannakuzhikaaraa (Kannakuzhikaaraa)
Mundakkannu veeraa (Mundakkannu veeraa)
Imbuttu rosham aagaadhu unakku
Pakkathil vandhu mallukattu
Ambuttu aasa unmela enakku
Thandora pottu thaali kattu
Pechuvaakula kichu kichu mootadha
Vathikuchiya eriven
Moochi kaathale enna mutti thallaadha
Katti vellama karaiven
Yekkathil vizhunthu engengo alaindhu
Thookatha tholaichu nikkirena
Sagasa kaaraa (kaaraa) maamisa theraa (theraa)
Nerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Kannakuzhikaaraa
Mundakkannu veeraa
Ada saami enna paarudaa
Usuroda odachi podudaa
Sagasa kaaraa (kaaraa) maamisa theraa (theraa)
Naerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Sagasa kaaraa (kaaraa) maamisa theraa (theraa)
Nerukku neraa nilludaa thimiraa
Dimple-cheeked man (dimple-cheeked man)
Big-eyed hero (big-eyed hero)
Hey darling, look at me!
Crush me completely while I am alive!
Daring adventurer, brave in flesh,
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!
Daring adventurer, brave in flesh,
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!
Where did you go all this time?
Now you show up and kill me like this!
So many men came chasing after me,
Yet not one ever caught my heart!
Whenever I drink water, you make me hiccup,
Resting so sweet in my throat (so sweet)!
Whenever I open my eyes, you stand close,
Your face etched deep in my heart!
Gazing at your mustache and weaving my desires,
Here I stand, all alone!
Daring adventurer, brave in flesh,
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!
Dimple-cheeked man (dimple-cheeked man)
Big-eyed hero (big-eyed hero)
So much stubborn pride is no good for you,
Come close and wrestle with me!
I have so much desire for you,
Beat the village drums and tie the wedding knot!
Don't tease and tickle me in casual talk,
I will catch fire like a matchstick!
Don't push against me with your warm breath,
I will melt like a block of jaggery!
Lost in longing and wandering all over,
Here I stand, having lost my sleep!
Daring adventurer (adventurer), brave in flesh (brave)!
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!
Dimple-cheeked man!
Big-eyed hero!
Hey darling, look at me!
Crush me completely while I am alive!
Daring adventurer (adventurer), brave in flesh (brave)!
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!
Daring adventurer (adventurer), brave in flesh (brave)!
Stand face-to-face with me in all your pride!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This sensual and energetic song expresses a woman's intense desire, yearning, and playful challenge toward her lover. She addresses him with bold affectionate nicknames—calling him a dimpled warrior and a chariot of flesh—demanding that he face her directly with confidence instead of staying distant. She describes how deeply he occupies her thoughts, causing hiccups when she drinks water, appearing in her mind as soon as she opens her eyes, and leaving her sleepless with longing.
