குறு குறு கண்ணாலே
காதலை சொன்னாளே
சிறு சிறு சொல்லாலே
சிறகுகள் தந்தாளே
சுற்றும் முற்றும் பார்த்து விட்டு
சிரிக்கத் தோணுதே
சத்தம் போட்டு குதிக்கத் தோணுதே
சற்று முன்பு கேட்ட பாடல்
பாடத் தோணுதே
வெட்கமின்றி ஆடத் தோணுதே
With those sharp, searching eyes
She expressed her love
With small, gentle words
She gave me wings to fly
Looking all around me
I feel like laughing out loud
I feel like screaming and jumping with joy
The song I heard just a moment ago
I feel like singing it
I feel like dancing without any shame
குறு குறு கண்ணாலே
காதலை சொன்னாளே
சிறு சிறு சொல்லாலே
சிறகுகள் தந்தாளே
With those sharp, searching eyes
She expressed her love
With small, gentle words
She gave me wings to fly
குறு குறு கண்ணாலே
காதலை சொன்னாளே
சிறு சிறு.......சிறகுகள் தந்தாளே
With those sharp, searching eyes
She expressed her love
With small gentle words... she gave me wings to fly
இன்பம் இல்லாமல் துன்பம் இல்லாமல்
நெஞ்சில் ஒரு பாரம் தலை நீட்டி பார்க்கும்
இங்கு இப்போதே வேண்டும் நீ என்று
இந்த இரவென்னை விளையாட்டு காட்டும்
Neither joy nor sorrow
A strange weight pops its head inside my heart
Saying I need you right here, right now
This night plays tricks on me
உன் பேர் கேட்டால்...
என் பேரை நீ சொல்ல வேண்டும்
ஊரே பார்க்க...
உன்னோடு நான் செல்ல வேண்டுமே...
ஊஞ்சலாய் இடம் வலம்
உள்ளம் ஆடி உன்னை கேட்குமே
If someone asks your name..
You should say my name in response
For the whole town to witness..
I want to walk away with you...
Swinging left and right like a cradle
My heart sways and asks for you
குறு குறு கண்ணாலே
காதலை சொன்னாளே
சிறு சிறு சொல்லாலே
சிறகுகள் தந்தாளே
சுற்றும் முற்றும் பார்த்து விட்டு
சிரிக்கத் தோணுதே
சத்தம் போட்டு குதிக்கத் தோணுதே
சற்று முன்பு கேட்ட பாடல்
பாடத் தோணுதே
வெட்கமின்றி ஆடத் தோணுதே
With those sharp, searching eyes
She expressed her love
With small, gentle words
She gave me wings to fly
Looking all around me
I feel like laughing out loud
I feel like screaming and jumping with joy
The song I heard just a moment ago
I feel like singing it
I feel like dancing without any shame
ஒன்று ரெண்டென்று கோடி வரை எண்ணி
நேரம் போக்குகிறேன் நான் என்ன சொல்ல
காலை பகலென்றும் மாலை இரவென்றும்
கோடு போட்டவனை தேடுகிறேன் கொல்ல
Counting one, two, up to a crore
I am passing time, what can I say?
Morning and day, evening and night
I am searching for the creator of time to kill him
பெண்ணே பெண்ணே...
பொல்லாத பேய் இந்த காதல்
நீயும் நானும்...
சேர்ந்தால் தான் அது விட்டு போகுமே...
வேண்டினேன் தினம் தினம்
உந்தன் தோளில் சாய போவதை
வேண்டினேன் தினம் தினம்
உந்தன் தோளில் சாய போவதை
Oh girl, oh girl...
This love is a wicked ghost
Only when you and I...
Come together will it leave us alone...
I prayed day after day
To lean on your shoulders
I prayed day after day
To lean on your shoulders
குறு குறு கண்ணாலே
காதலை சொன்னாளே
சிறு சிறு சொல்லாலே
சிறகுகள் தந்தாளே
சுற்றும் முற்றும் பார்த்து விட்டு
சிரிக்கத் தோணுதே
சத்தம் போட்டு குதிக்கத் தோணுதே

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Kuru Kuru Kannaalae' from Vathikuchi expresses the euphoric sensation of falling in love. The protagonist describes how a single glance and gentle words from his beloved filled him with boundless joy, making him feel as though he has sprouted wings and wants to dance, sing, and jump without any inhibition. The lyrics vividly capture the restlessness and playful madness caused by love, where time feels impossibly slow without the partner.
