பருவம் உருக இதயம் தவிக்க
இனிய குழலில் யமுனை முழுதும்
பொங்க அலை பொங்க
இன்று பிருந்தாவனம் தன்னில் ஒண்ணா
கை சேராதோ நீ வா என் கண்ணா
இன்று பிருந்தாவனம் தன்னில் ஒண்ணா
கை சேராதோ நீ வா என் கண்ணா
As youth melts and the heart yearns
In the sweet flute music, the entire Yamuna river
Surges with overflowing waves
Today, alone in Brindavan
Won't our hands join? Come, my Kannan!
Today, alone in Brindavan
Won't our hands join? Come, my Kannan!
பருவம் உருக இதயம் தவிக்க
அழகும் அரும்பும் மலர்ந்து கிடக்க
நானே தொடுவேனே
இந்த பிருந்தாவனம் தந்த போதை
இவள் கொண்டாளோ சின்னப் பெண் ராதை
இந்த பிருந்தாவனம் தந்த போதை
இவள் கொண்டாளோ சின்னப் பெண் ராதை
As youth melts and the heart yearns
As beauty and buds bloom fully
I myself shall touch them
The intoxication given by this Brindavan
Has she embraced it, this little girl Radha?
The intoxication given by this Brindavan
Has she embraced it, this little girl Radha?
பொழுதோடு வந்தானோ பூ அம்பு போட்டானோ
சிங்கார வண்ணன் கண்ணன் முத்தம் வைத்தானோ
முத்தாடக் கூடாதோ கன்னங்கள் மின்னாதோ
கையோடு அள்ள அள்ள காதல் வராதோ
Did he arrive with the evening and shoot a flower arrow?
Did the beautifully hued Kannan plant a kiss?
Can't we share a kiss? Won't cheeks shine brightly?
As I gather you in my arms, won't love stream forth?
மனம் போல் அவதாரம் அது போல் அலங்காரம்
இது போல் எந்நாளும் இரு வேஷம்தான்
ராகங்கள் ஆயிரம் தான் வேங்குழல் ஒன்றேதான்
ரூபம் ஆயிரம்தான் இதயம் ஒன்றேதான்
நான்தான் நீ அல்லவோ
இங்கு நீயே என் இள நெஞ்சின் சங்கீதம்.....
Avatars according to the heart's wish, matching decorations
Like this, every day is a dual role
Though there are a thousand ragas, the bamboo flute is but one
Though there are a thousand forms, the heart is but one
Am I not you yourself?
Here, you alone are the music in my young heart
பருவம் உருக இதயம் தவிக்க
அழகும் அரும்பும் மலர்ந்து கிடக்க
நானே தொடுவேனே
இன்று பிருந்தாவனம் தன்னில் ஒண்ணா
கை சேராதோ நீ வா என் கண்ணா
இந்த பிருந்தாவனம் தந்த போதை

தேன் மல்லி வாடாதோ தெம்மாங்கு பாடாதோ
செவ்வண்டு கொஞ்சக் கொஞ்ச தேனும் சிந்தாதா
நீராட வந்தாயோ நான் என்ன தேனாறோ
ஆனந்தம் ஏதோ கண்டேன் கண்ணா நீ வாழ்க
Won't honey jasmine wither? Won't folk melodies sing out?
Won't the reddish beetle caress and spill honey?
Did you come to bathe? Am I a river of honey?
I experienced an unknown bliss; long live my Kannan!
முத்தம் வைத்தாலும் மடியில் விழுந்தாலும்
நித்தம் கள்ளூறும் ஸ்ரீ தேவியே
அள்ளி அணைத்தாலே அங்கம் துடித்தேனே
ஆடும் புதுப் பூவும் தேவனின் வசம் தானே
மேனி அமுதாகுமோ
பசி வேளை உன் அழகெந்தன் அருள் வெள்ளம்
Whether kissing or falling onto my lap
Everyday intoxication flows, oh divine goddess!
When gathered and embraced, my entire body quivered
The swaying fresh flower belongs to God alone
Does the body turn into divine nectar?
At the time of hunger, your beauty is my flood of grace
பருவம் உருக இதயம் தவிக்க
இனிய குழலில் யமுனை முழுதும்

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song is a deeply romantic and sensual duet set against the allegorical backdrop of Radha and Krishna's divine love in Brindavan. The lyrics describe the overwhelming feelings of youthful passion, emotional yearning, and spiritual oneness between lovers. As Krishna plays his flute, the music stirs the symbolic Yamuna river of emotions within Radha, leading to an intoxicating exchange of love, tenderness, and affectionate surrender.
