பணங்கருக்கா பணங்கருக்கா
தரிச்ச மீசை
கொலையறுத்தா கொலையறுத்தா
என்னதான் பேச
Like a sharp palmyra leaf edge, like a sharp palmyra leaf edge,
A trimmed mustache.
Cutting off the fruit cluster, cutting off the fruit cluster,
What is there left to speak?
கலங்குன குளத்தில்
ஒரு வெறா மீன போல
மலங்க நான் முழிக்குறேன்டா
தனியா தனியா
In a muddy pond,
Like a disoriented fish,
I blink in complete bewilderment,
All alone, all alone.
ஆண் மற்றும் குழு :
நீ கொத்து கொத்தா பூ பூத்த
கோலம் கண்டேனே
அதை கொத்தி கொத்தி போகத்தான்
நேரம் பார்த்தேனே
Something happened to me because of those two eyes...
இரு கண்ணால ஏதோ ஆனேனே.....
Like a sharp palmyra leaf edge, like a sharp palmyra leaf edge,
A trimmed mustache.
Cutting off the fruit cluster, cutting off the fruit cluster,
What is there left to speak?
பணங்கருக்கா பணங்கருக்கா
தரிச்ச மீசை
கொலையறுத்தா கொலையறுத்தா
என்னதான் பேச
My mind that wandered half-incomplete,
Has completely melted away for the first time.
You became my whole world.
அரகுறையா அலைஞ்ச மனம்
மொத மொறையா உருகி போயாச்சு
உலகம் நீயாச்சு
Having lost its address,
A letter has properly reached its destination.
An auspicious wedding moment has been fixed.
முகவரித்தான் தொலைஞ்சயிருந்த
கடிதம் ஒன்னும் மொறையா சேர்ந்தாச்சு
முகூர்த்தம் பார்த்தாச்சு
Oh magician!
Oh clever trickster!
Closing my eyes upon your chest,
Isn't that pure joy enough?
Without this life coming to an end,
Will it continue for long days?
அட மந்திரனே
தந்திரனே மாயக்காரா
உன் மார்பில் கண்மூடும்
இன்பம் போதாதா
இந்த வாழ்க்கை தீராம
நெடுநாள் தொடருமா....
Like a sharp palmyra leaf edge, like a sharp palmyra leaf edge,
A trimmed mustache.
Cutting off the fruit cluster, cutting off the fruit cluster,
What is there left to speak?
பணங்கருக்கா பணங்கருக்கா
தரிச்ச மீசை
கொலையறுத்தா கொலையறுத்தா
என்னதான் பேச
...

Like water boiling on a firewood stove,
I became like rice cooking inside the heart.
I am getting mashed and soft.
வெரகடுப்பா ஒலை கொதிக்கும் மனசுக்குள்ள அரிசி ஆனேனே
கொலைஞ்சு போறேனே
Like swallowing a mountain and digesting it,
A spellbound trance looked at me with pride.
You are that thief, aren't you?
மலை முழுங்கி செமிச்சதுபோல்
ஒரு மயக்கம் திமிரா பார்த்தானே
திருடன் நீதானே
If you ask me to sign away my property,
I will give it to you happily without sadness.
But if you ask for yourself to leave, swearingly
I won't be able to bear it.
This life lived with you,
Is more than enough.
என் சொத்தை எழுதி தரச்சொன்னா
சொகமா தருவேன்
உன்னை கேட்டா சத்தியமா
தாங்க மாட்டேனே
இந்த வாழ்க்கை உன்னோட
இருந்தா போதுமே
Like a sharp palmyra leaf edge, like a sharp palmyra leaf edge,
A trimmed mustache.
Cutting off the fruit cluster, cutting off the fruit cluster,
What is there left to speak?
பணங்கருக்கா பணங்கருக்கா
தரிச்ச மீசை
கொலையறுத்தா கொலையறுத்தா
என்னதான் பேச
In a muddy pond,
Like a disoriented fish,
I blink in complete bewilderment,
All alone, all alone.
கலங்குன குளத்தில்
ஒரு வெறா மீன போல
மனங்கன முழிக்குறேன்டா
தனியா தனியா
Something happened to me because of those two eyes...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Panangarukka is a soul-stirring rural Tamil love ballad that portrays deep passion, emotional vulnerability, and complete surrender. The song uses rich rustic imagery—such as sharp palmyra leaves, firewood stoves, and muddy village ponds—to describe how love reshapes the protagonist's inner world.
