நான் உந்தன் உடலின் பாதி
நீ எந்தன் உயிரின் மீதி
இருவருமே ஒன்றாய் சேர்ந்தோமே
I am one half of your body
You are the remaining part of my soul
The two of us have united as one
நான் உந்தன் உடலின் பாதி
நீ எந்தன் உயிரின் மீதி
இருவருமே ஒன்றாய் சேர்ந்தோமே
I am one half of your body
You are the remaining part of my soul
The two of us have united as one
என் கண்ணுக்குள்ள
உன்ன நானும் தேய்த்தேன்
இனி என்ன விட்டு
போக விட மாட்டேன்
Inside my eyes, I have...
Stitched you securely
I will never let you leave me now
நான் உந்தன் உடலின் பாதி
நீ எந்தன் உயிரின் மீதி
இருவருமே ஒன்றாய் சேர்ந்தோமே
I am one half of your body
You are the remaining part of my soul
The two of us have united as one
சேர்த்து நீயும் வெச்ச காதல்
நெஞ்சு குழி நிரம்பிடுச்சு
இன்னும் என்ன
நானும் சொல்ல…
உந்தன் ஆசை கண்ட பின்னே
எந்தன் காதல் சின்னதாச்சு
நன்றி சொல்ல
வார்த்தை இல்லையே
The love that you accumulated
Has filled the depths of my heart
What more can I possibly say...
Upon seeing the depth of your desire
My own love seemed small in comparison
There are no words left to express my gratitude
என்ன முழுசா நீயே ஆளுற
என் எண்ணம் முழுசா செல்லம்
நீயே வாழுற
நாணம் இன்றி நானும் கேட்பேன்
முதல் முத்தம் தா மாமா
You rule over me completely
In all my thoughts, my darling
You alone live
Without any bashfulness, I will ask
Give me our first kiss, my beloved
Hahahahaha...
நீ எந்தன் உயிரின் மீதி
நான் உந்தன் உடலின் பாதி
You are the remaining part of my soul
I am one half of your body
உன்ன போல பாசம் வைக்க
ஊர் உலகில் யாரும் இல்ல
கண்ண மூடி நானும் சொல்லுவேன்
உன்னருகில் நான் இருக்கும்
வாழ்க்கை ஒன்றே போதும் ஐயா
வேற ஒன்னும் தேவையே இல்ல
To shower such unconditional love like yours
There is no one else in this whole world
Even with my eyes closed, I can affirm this
A life spent right beside you
That one life is more than enough, my love
There is nothing else I will ever need
என்ன சுருட்டி
உள்ளங்கையில் வைத்திடு
அட மெல்ல திறந்து
ஒர கண்ணால் பார்த்திடு
கால நேரம் கூடி வர
தவம் நூறு செய்வேனே
Roll me up in your palm
And keep me safely
Oh, open gently and with a side-glance
Look upon me
For the right auspicious time to align
I am willing to perform a hundred penances
நீ எந்தன் உயிரின் மீதி
நான் உந்தன் உடலின் பாதி
இருவருமே ஒன்றாய் சேர்ந்தோமே
You are the remaining part of my soul
I am one half of your body
The two of us have united as one
என் கண்ணுக்குள்ள
உன்ன நானும் தேய்த்தேன்
இனி என்ன விட்டு
போக விட மாட்டேன்
Inside my eyes, I have...
Stitched you securely
I will never let you leave me now
ஆ....ஆ....ஆ....ஆ......

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This romantic song expresses deep devotion, emotional oneness, and complete surrender between two lovers. The speaker conveys that they and their partner form two halves of a single existence—one providing the body and the other supplying the soul. The lyrics highlight how overwhelmed the speaker feels by their partner's vast love, making their own affection feel small and leaving them endlessly grateful.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Metaphor
“Naan unthan udalin paathi / Nee enthan uyirin meedhi”
Describing two lovers as the body ('udalin paathi') and the soul ('uyirin meedhi') creates a vivid metaphor for indivisible unity.
Hyperbole & Imagery
“En kannukulla unna naanum thaithen”
'En kannukulla unna naanum thaithen' (I stitched you inside my eyes) uses exaggerated imagery to convey how deeply embedded the lover is in the speaker's vision.
Ethirai (Second letter rhyme in Tamil prosody)
“Iruvarumae ondraai sernthomae”
The second letters 'ru' in 'Iruvarumae' and 'er' / 'an' across corresponding lines create phonetic harmony.
