Muthal muthal parthen unnai
Muluvathum ilanthen ennai
Enakullae indru puthu vitha modhal
Ithan peyar thana ulagathil kaadhal

I saw you for the very first time,
and completely lost myself.
Inside me today, there is a whole new stir.
Is this what the world calls love?
The air that I breathe out,
you must lovingly breathe in, my love.
Sign yourself over completely in my name.
Come and sleep upon my chest every day.
Oh, I saw you for the very first time,
and completely lost myself.
Where the clouds alone are the walls,
I will ask for a bathroom,
and just for your eyes to see,
I will make a tiny opening in it.
Gather a hundred and eight stars,
string them all together,
and like an anklet on my feet,
tie them on and sing me a lullaby.
Oh, made of soft peacock feathers,
I will ask for a bed.
Oh, a clock that stops running at night
is what we need in our home.
Only after asking me
should you even breathe,
yet without asking, you must touch me!
I saw you for the very first time,
and completely lost myself.
...
If you try to leave for work
when I am swept with desire,
I will tie you down with a single strand of hair;
you are not allowed to go out!
Cooking up sweet little kisses,
I will serve them to you.
Dipping into shyness and modesty,
come, let us feast on this meal of kisses!
Oh, scoop up the water foam
and make a soft bed of flowers,
and until I say, "enough, enough,"
I want this passion to go on.
Prick me with your mustache
and leave a wound of desire, my love.
And on that sweet wound,
will you soothe it with a wet kiss?
Ah, I saw you for the very first time,
and completely lost myself.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Muthal Muthal Parthen Unnai from Priyasakhi (2005) is a whimsical, playful duet celebrating the overwhelming emotions of falling in love for the first time. The song highlights the protagonist losing total self-control and experiencing a sweet, novel conflict inside after encountering their beloved. The lover demands total devotion, wanting to share the same air, time, and intimate moments. The lyrics combine imaginative hyperbole—such as stringing stars into anklets or tying someone down with a single hair strand—with passionate expressions of affection like feeding each other kisses. Ultimately, it paints a vivid portrait of romance where boundaries blur and lovers completely surrender to one another in playful intimacy.
