I hung out with many girls,
Yet back then, I felt nothing at all.
Now, towards you, love blossoms.
That is...
: Is everything you said true?
Did you say the very same to anyone before?
If you ask your love, it will know.
Send it... oooo
Giving the right address,
Send it over.
I too, until now,
Have not received any love.
....................
Did it arrive or not?
I am struggling without an answer.
What did it actually say?
My love, my love.
To anyone until now,
It seems it was never sent.
It spoke joyfully—
Your love, your love.
I wrote your name,
And all the ants ate it up.
Oh sweet demoness,
Shall I devour you?
I drank your love,
And even sweat tasted sweet.
Oh mischievous demon,
Are you going to kill me?
I think of you like Thirukkural,
And relish the chapter on love in it.
I gather and drink you like Kamban's poetry.
My love... ae......
I myself exist as a new poem,
In this, you wish for grammar to be born.
You yearn to read Sangam Tamil.
My love.... ae.............
....................
That beautiful girls
Are looked at often,
Was told as a secret by
Your love, your love.
That a beauty greater than you
Does not exist at all,
'Search and see,' said
Your love, your love.
With a single word of love,
Unasked questions,
Unseen glances,
Will they kill or will they conquer?
An unjoined body,
In unspun garments,
When it does not sweat,
Will it caress or will it plead?
I exist like a temple,
Smiling everywhere like a sculpture inside.
You yearn to witness the wonder.
My love...... ae.....
You drench me like a light rain,
I drink you up like a drop of water.
Because I drink you, I stay alive.
My love............ ae......
To anyone until now,
I haven't sent this love.
Female: I too, until now,
Have not received any love.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This song represents a playful romantic duet between two lovers expressing their newly discovered feelings for each other. The male protagonist reflects on how he interacted with many women in the past without feeling anything, but has now fallen deeply in love with her. The female partner responds with endearing skepticism, asking if he has used these lines before and teasingly demanding that he post his love to her exact address. The duet develops through imaginative imagery, comparing their affection to classical Tamil literature, sweet delicacies, and refreshing rain showers.

Poetic devices

Hyperbole (Uyarvu Navitchi Ani)

Simile and Metaphor (Upamai & Uvameyam)

“Unnai thirukkural pola ninaikkiren”

Comparing the beloved to classic works of Tamil literature like Thirukkural and Kamban's poetry, as well as comparing oneself to modern poetry and a temple sculpture.

Ethiray (Second Letter Rhyme)

“Kamban kavidhaiyaai alli kudikkiren / Pudhu kavidhaiyaai naanae irukkiren”

Matching second consonants across consecutive lines, such as 'Kamban' / 'Anbae' / 'Pudhu'.
