You are poetry to me
I am your admirer
Pa-bam pa pa pa pa-bam
You are a bird to me
I am your wings
Pa pa pa pam.. pa pa pa pam
You are poetry to me
I am your admirer
Pa-bam pa pa pa pa-bam
You are a bird to me
I am your wings
Pa pa pa pam.. pa pa pa pam
O rain that drenches the whole body
O art sculpted with fingernails
O bliss of giving and receiving pleasure
O wedding night
Oh ho ho
O moon rolling dressed in clothes
O curve gathered past every restraint
Forgetting my weight, you carried me
O my love..
You are poetry to me
I am your admirer
Pa-bam pa pa pa pa-bam
You are a bird to me
I am your wings
Pa pa pa pam.. pa pa pa pam
Your noisy bangles
Are not needed until the morning
Even that tiny pricking nose stud
Is not needed anymore, is it?
Since it gets tangled in your hair
Are the earrings also not needed? Male: Oh.. ho
Female: Still getting in the way on our fingers
Why keep these rings?
Male: As we cling and sway together
In this golden hour
Is a waist-chain really needed
On your golden body?
You are poetry to me
I am your admirer
Pa-bam pa pa pa pa-bam
You are a bird to me
I am your wings
Pa pa pa pam.. pa pa pa pam
Haaa.. ra ra ra... aahhh.. to put it off
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Yes, yes, we want it
Female: To delay... delay...
Where love comes to an end... Male: In that place
Begins a start free of desire.. Male: Oh.. ho..
Where physical passion comes to an end, Male: In that place
Love is born all over again
Ah, where desire overflows
Joy shouts aloud
Where clothes slip away
Silence alone speaks
Female: Even the bed is gasping for breath right now
In this heat, our bodies themselves turn into a blanket
You are poetry to me
I am your admirer
Pa-bam pa pa pa pa-bam
Male: You are a bird to me
I am your wings
Pa pa pa pam.. pa pa pa pam
O rain that drenches the whole body
O art sculpted with fingernails
O bliss of giving and receiving pleasure
O wedding night
Oh ho ho
O moon rolling dressed in clothes
O curve gathered past every restraint
Forgetting my weight, you carried me
O my love..

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Nee Kavithai' from the film Naan Avanillai is a sensual duet depicting the passion and intimacy between lovers during their wedding night or intimate romantic encounter. Through vivid poetic metaphors, the lovers express their deep attachment, describing each other as poetry and admirer, bird and wings. They playfully shed away ornaments like bangles, nose rings, and rings as hindrances to their physical and emotional closeness. The lyrics explore the cyclical relationship between emotional love and physical desire—suggesting that where love culminates, intimacy begins, and when physical intimacy peaks, love blossoms anew. It paints an evocative atmosphere of silence, rhythm, and passion where speech becomes unnecessary and intimacy takes center stage.
