Unnai suthi suthi vaaren appavi
En thagatha yethum sathigari

Unnai suthi suthi vaaren appavi
En thagatha yethum sathigari

Kaadhal andhi mazhai
Un idhazhoram thaena
Vandu-ah naanum theenda
Maalai moozhga
Moga inba kadhai
Pora pora pora
Sokka vachi pora

You tease me and walk away,
you cruel girl!
I keep circling around you, so innocent.
Scheming girl, raising my burning thirst,
just one kiss from you is enough to finish me!
You tease me and walk away,
you cruel girl!
I keep circling around you, so innocent.
Scheming girl, raising my burning thirst,
just one kiss from you is enough to finish me!
Cruel girl, cruel girl!
Cruel girl, cruel girl!
Pinch me with your eyes,
and tuck me into your anklet!
As the breeze blows
in the evening rain of love,
the honey at the edge of your lips,
let me taste like a bee,
as the evening drowns
in a sweet tale of desire.
There she goes, there she goes,
leaving me spellbound as she goes!
There she goes, there she goes,
stopping me in my tracks as she goes!
There she goes, there she goes,
Dazzling... leaving me spellbound as she goes!
Cruel girl... there she goes, there she goes,
knocking me off my feet and leaving me standing!
Scheming girl...
Even when your harshness
tied me down and beat me,
deep inside my trembling heart,
you made my spirit leap with joy!
Oh blessed queen, my golden girl,
you claimed me as your sacred offering,
every day my breath races without stopping,
and you leave me completely breathless!
Oh my sweet little parrot,
full of charming pride,
resting on a bed of dark clouds,
my beauty who holds my life so dear!
You tease me and walk away,
you cruel girl!
I keep circling around you, so innocent.
Scheming girl, raising my burning thirst,
just one kiss from you is enough to finish me!
Cruel girl, cruel girl!
Cruel girl, cruel girl!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song is a passionate expression of romantic infatuation where the protagonist affectionately addresses his lover as a rebellious ('Sandaali') and treacherous ('Sathigaari') beauty. He describes how her playful teasing, alluring glances, and captivating presence mesmerize him and leave him completely helpless. Despite her teasingly cruel gaze, he finds immense joy in her presence, comparing her sweetness to honey and her impact to an intoxicating evening rain. The overall theme revolves around the ecstasy of love, desire, and the overwhelming spell a woman casts on her lover.

Writing craft

Poetic devices

Anaphora / Repetition

Pora pora pora

The phrase 'Pora pora pora' (She goes, she goes, she goes) is repeated multiple times to emphasize her movement and the lingering impact she leaves as she walks away.

Metaphor

Kaadhal andhi mazhai / Un idhazhoram thaena

Describing love as an evening rain ('Kaadhal andhi mazhai') and the protagonist comparing himself to a bee ('Vandu-ah naanum theenda') tasting honey from her lips.

Oxymoron

Inicha thimirae

The term 'Inicha thimirae' combines sweetness ('inicha') with arrogance ('thimirae') to express playful affection for her proud demeanor.

Ethukai (Second-letter Rhyming)

Ennai seendi vittu pogum / Unnai suthi suthi vaaren appavi

Rhyming of the second letter 'n' in 'Ennai' and 'Unnai', which is a characteristic Tamil poetic meter structure.
