ஹம்மிங் :
…………….
Me and her,
Through beautiful love every day,
We were born anew, forgetting the entire world.
With a heart full of emotions,
Through beautiful affection every day,
We got drenched together and lived as our hearts desired.
நானும் அவளும்
அழகிய காதல் அதினமும்
புதிதாய் பிறந்தோம் உலகை மறந்தோம்
இதயம் முழுக்க
அழகிய அன்பினால் தினமும்
இணைந்தே நனைந்தோம் மனம் போல் வாழ்ந்தோம்
A separate world of our own,
We walked and traversed together.
Looking at each other like innocent children,
We thought of each other and admired.
Will destiny allow us to live like this forever?
Is there only one more lifetime left?
Is love here a boon or a penance?
தனி ஒரு உலகினை இருவரும்
நடந்தே கடந்தோம்
ஒருவர் ஒருவரை குழந்தையாய்
நினைத்தே ரசித்தோம்
அது போல வாழத்தானே வாய்க்குமோ
இனி ஒரு பிறவி தான்
வரமா தவம காதல் இங்கே
Me and her,
Through beautiful love every day,
We were born anew, forgetting the entire world.
நானும் அவளும்
அழகிய காதல் அதினமும்
புதிதாய் பிறந்தோம் உலகை மறந்தோம்
She gives a single smile,
And I forget this earthly world.
If she separates from me even for a moment,
I would give up my life.
ஓர் புன்னகை தருவாள்
நான் புவி மறப்பேன்
ஓர் நொடி அவள் பிரிந்தாள்
நான் உயிர் துறப்பேன்
If I rest my head on her lap,
My lifespan extends right here.
When she is by my side,
The world looks beautiful here.
A poem where gray hair blooms,
Does not ask for a curtain to hide.
Here, love blossoms amidst blossoming memories.
அவள் மடி தனில் தலை சாய்த்தாள்
ஆயுள் நீளும் இங்கே
அவள் எந்தன் அருகினில் இருந்தாள்
உலகம் அழகு இங்கே
நாரை பூக்கும் கவிதை
திரை கேட்பதில்லை
இங்கே மலரும் நினைவில் மலரும் காதல்
Me and her,
Through beautiful love every day,
We were born anew, forgetting the entire world.
நானும் அவளும்
அழகிய காதல் அதினமும்
புதிதாய் பிறந்தோம் உலகை மறந்தோம்
When the sky showers rain,
We become a single umbrella.
We lived as if we were a single soul,
Who could ever become our enemy?
வான் மழை தரும் நேரம்
ஓர் குடை ஆவோம்
ஓர் உயிர் என வாழ்ந்தோம்
யார் பகையாவோம்
Though bearing the names of two individuals,
We lived as one entity.
That only our hearts are two in number here,
We completely forgot.
Like an inseparable shadow, we lived without parting.
We two lived together in this world.
இருவர் என பெயர் கொண்டுதான்
ஒருவராய் வாழ்ந்தோம்
இருதயம் மட்டும் இங்கே ரெண்டுதான்
என்பதை மறந்தோம்
பிரியாத நிழலாய் பிரியாமல் வாழ்த்தோம்
நாங்கள் இருவர் உலகில் இருவரும் வாழ்ந்தோம்
Me and her,
Through beautiful love every day,
We were born anew, forgetting the entire world.
நானும் அவளும்
அழகிய காதல் அதினமும்
புதிதாய் பிறந்தோம் உலகை மறந்தோம்

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Naanum Avalum' from the film Kadasithotta (2025) is a soulful ode to deep, enduring love and companionship. It articulates the journey of two lovers who transcend the feeling of being separate individuals to exist as a single soul. They forget the worries of the world, find joy in simple moments, and view aging together not as a decay, but as a blossoming poem ('Narai pookum kavithai'). The lyricist Snehan beautifully captures how love transforms everyday life into a sacred sanctuary where simple smiles bring complete bliss and presence extends lifespan.
