நேற்று இரவில் நினைவினில்
உதித்தவள் நீ தானே
காற்றுவெளியில் கனவினில்
மிதந்தவன் நான் தானே ஆ....ஹா
In yesterday's night thoughts,
You are the one who arose
In the open sky of dreams,
I am the one who floated
அன்றாடம் உருகிடும்
ஆசை புரிந்தது
அம்மாடி இளமையின்
வேகம் தெரிந்தது
In yesterday's night thoughts,
You are the one who arose
In the open sky of dreams,
I am the one who floated
முன்னும் பின்னும்
வண்ணம் மின்னும்
மங்கை என்னும்
தங்கக் கிண்ணம்
ஒரு தரம் பருகிட
வந்தாலே என்னம்மா
The daily melting
Desire is understood
Oh my, youth's
Speed and intensity are known
Front and back

Shining with vibrant colors
The golden vessel called a maiden
To drink from just once
She has arrived, oh my!

லவ் என்னென்று
அஆ ஹா அறிஞ்சவன்
L-O-V-E is love indeed
I am the love bird here
Male: I am one who understands everything
I am one who knows what love is
{நீல அலைகள் நிலம் வந்து
கலந்தது இப்போது
நானும் உனது மடி வந்து
கிடப்பது எப்போது ஹா ஹா} (2)
The blue waves come to the shore
And merge together now
When will I come to your lap
And lie down... haan haa haa
கண்ணா நீ நடத்திடு
காதல் திருமணம்
கட்டாயம் கிடைத்திடும்
தேவி தரிசனம்
The blue waves come to the shore
And merge together now
When will I come to your lap
And lie down...
மேளம் என்ன
மாலை என்ன
காலம் என்ன
வேளை என்ன
பழரசம் பருகிட
பஞ்சாங்கம் என்னம்மா
Dear Krishna, please conduct
A love marriage
We will surely receive
The vision of the Goddess
எல் ஓ வீ ஈ
லவ் தான்
எல் போர்டு அல்ல
நான் தான்
Why drums, why garlands?
Why auspicious time, why planetary alignment?
To sip fruit juice,
Why an almanac, my dear?
என்னோடு பறக்க வா
ஹே ஒன்றாக கலக்க வா
L-O-V-E is love indeed
I am not a learner, I am an expert
Female: Will you fly with me?

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'L O V E Love Dhaan' from the 1984 Tamil film Vidhi is a playful and romantic duet written by lyricist Vaali. The song portrays a confident protagonist declaring his expertise in romance, humorously asserting that he is an expert rather than a novice learner ('L board'). Through poetic imagery of ocean waves merging with the land and dreams floating in the sky, the lovers express their deep mutual affection, passion, and longing for union. Vaali masterfully weaves traditional wedding and astrological metaphors—such as garlands, drums, and the astrological almanac (panchangam)—with modern, casual English expressions to convey that authentic love needs no formal calendar date or elaborate rituals to be celebrated.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Pun / Wordplay
“L board alla naan dhaan”
Vaali plays on the letter 'L' from 'LOVE' and references the 'L board' (Learner's sign on vehicles in India) to cleverly state he is an expert in love, not a beginner.
Metaphor (Uruvam)
“Mangai ennum thanga kinnam”
The song compares a youthful maiden to a golden vessel ('thanga kinnam') filled with charm to be savored.
Visual Imagery
“Neela alaigal nilam vandhu kalandhanu ippodhu”
The image of blue waves crashing onto and merging with the shore represents the intimate emotional and physical union of lovers.
Rhythmic Parallelism / Rhyme
“Melam enna maalai enna / Neram enna kaalam enna”
The line uses rapid rhetorical questions and end-rhymes ('enna') to dismiss conventional wedding requirements in favor of immediate romantic union.

Trivia
Featured in the hit 1984 Tamil legal drama 'Vidhi' starring Mohan and Suhasini, this song was composed by the duo Shankar-Ganesh and rendered by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam and S. Janaki. Lyricist Vaali's clever mixing of English acronyms ('L-O-V-E') and modern colloquial concepts ('L board') became a popular stylistic trend in 1980s Tamil film music.
