ஒரு கிளி காதலில்
ஒரு கிளி ஆசையில்
சேரும் நேரம் இது
மெய் காதல் தீராதது
One parrot in love, one parrot in desire
This is the time for them to unite
Your endless love

{ யார் மீது ஆசை
கூடி போக தேகம்
இளைத்தாயோ

Reside, making your body grow slender?

தோழனான சேதி
அறிவாயோ } (2)
That I became a friend
To love itself, did you know this news? } (2)

Overflowing, overflowing is the bliss

Uniting, uniting
Two bodies are uniting
Fingernails are writing poetry
நீ விடும் மூச்சிலே
காதலின் கூச்சலே
In the breath that you exhale
Lies the cheerful squeal of love

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Oru Kili Kaadhalil' is a sensual and melodious duet from the movie Paramasivan (2006). Metaphorically portraying the lovers as two affectionate parrots, the song captures the intense romance, physical intimacy, and emotional closeness between the couple. As the distance between them diminishes, their love transforms into a poetic celebration of togetherness, contrasting the bitterness of solitude with the sweetness of companionship. The lyricist uses tactile imagery like fingernails writing poetry on skin and half-saree chemistry to evoke passion. Beyond physical intimacy, the song conveys a deep emotional commitment where the lovers wish to intertwine their lifespans and journey through life together endlessly.
