I like you,
again and again, you...
I like you,
again and again, you...
Why
I fell for you,
I do not know.
To find
out, the heart that dared
truly got lost.

I like you,
again and again, you...
I like you...
Oh, my love,
when your hands touch me,
my hormones turn into flutes
and play music.
Happiness bursts open!
Without dying,
to truly live,
that love exists—
you told me,
coming before me in person,
as my angel!
In everything,
I see you, my love.
In your memory,
I even like myself!
I like you,
again and again, you...
I like you,
again and again, you...
Though it isn't drizzling now,
the rainbow
I admire because of you.
I smile to myself.
At my heart like glass,
you throw a glance and walk away.
Even the days I haven't lived yet,
you make me live them all.
Standing right near me,
you are a waterfall, my love.
In your beauty,
I love getting drenched... I love it!
I like you,
again and again, you...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Pidikkudhae from the 2014 movie Sigaram Thodu is a romantic track expressing the overwhelming feeling of falling deeply in love with someone. The lyrics revolve around the protagonist realizing that their fondness for their partner grows repeatedly, even without a clear reason. Seeking to understand this emotion only leads to completely surrendering one's heart. The song vividly describes how love alters one's perception of life—making touch feel like musical notes, unlived moments feel meaningful, and everyday sights feel magical like a rainbow appearing without rain. Ultimately, it celebrates how loving someone else also makes a person appreciate and love themselves.

Poetic devices

Anaphora / Repetition (Adukku Thodar)

Thirumba thirumba unnai

The phrase 'Thirumba thirumba' (again and again) is repeated sequentially to emphasize the continuous and unstoppable nature of falling in love.

Metaphor (Uruvagam)

Hormonegal moongil aaga

Hormones inside the body are poetically compared to bamboo flutes ('moongil') that resonate and create music upon touch.

Simile (Uvamai)

Kannadi pondra nenjil

The heart is explicitly compared to glass ('Kannadi pondra') to reflect its clarity, innocence, and delicate nature.

Alliteration (Moni)

Arugilae nirkum / Aruvi nee anbae

Repetition of the initial vowel 'A' in 'Arugilae', 'Aruvi', and 'Anbae' provides rhythmic and phonetic beauty to the line.
