Hey girl, wait up, wait up!
You are leaving after stealing my heart!
Return my heart back to me, return it!
My love is a tangle of hormones.
Getting caught in it makes one want oleander poison.
Our era is like Idhayam Murali's tragic love.
உன் கொப்பமவளே இருடி இருடி
நீ விட்டு போற மனச திருடி
என் ஹார்ட்ட திருப்பி குடுடி குடுடி
என் காதல் ஒரு ஹார்மோன் குழலி
அதில் மாட்டிகிட்டா வேணும் அரளி
நம்மோட காலம் இதயம் முரளி
Sigh... my love is so distant.
Ah sigh... my heart is so heavy.
Sigh sigh... I am so pitiful.
What will I do, where will I bang my head?
Why did you fall into my eyes?
Why did you grow in my heart?
Ah go away, were you born just to leave me?
I went crazy and lost everything.
அப்போ ச்சே என் காதல் தூரம்தான்
ஆஹ் ச்சே என் நெஞ்சம் பாரம்தான்
ச்சே ச்சே நன் ரொம்ப பாவம்தான்
என்ன பண்ணுவேன் எங்க முட்டுவேன்
ஏன்டி என் கண்ணில் விழுந்தா
ஏன்டி என் நெஞ்சில் வளந்த
ஆ போடி என்ன விட்டு பொறந்த
பித்து புடிச்சேன் செத்து முடிச்சேன்
Oh, wildly and intensely,
I loved only you.
You chopped me into pieces,
And killed me completely.
I became a total fool,
By trusting in you.
Grief arrived,
My throat dried up.
அட தாறு மாறா
காதலுச்சேன் உன்னதான்
நீ கூறு போட்டு
கொன்னுட்டியே என்னதான்
நான் கோக்கு மாக்கா ஆனேன்
உன்ன நம்பிதான்
துக்கம் வந்துச்சே
தொண்ட வத்துச்சே
Oh, wildly and intensely,
I loved only you.
You chopped me into pieces,
And killed me completely.
I became a total fool,
By trusting in you.
Grief arrived,
My throat dried up.
அட தாறு மாறா
காதலுச்சேன் உன்னதான்
நீ கூறு போட்டு
கொன்னுட்டியே என்னதான்
நான் கோக்கு மாக்கா ஆனேன்
உன்ன நம்பிதான்
துக்கம் வந்துச்சே
தொண்ட வத்துச்சே
Hey girl, wait up, wait up!
You are leaving after stealing my heart!
Return my heart back to me, return it!
உன் கொப்பமவளே இருடி இருடி
நீ விட்டு போற மனச திருடி
என் ஹார்ட்ட திருப்பி குடுடி குடுடி
Oh, who has desire ever spared?
Love blindfolded my eyes.
Warm tears welled up in my eyes.
Intermittently, sigh, my blood boiled in frustration.
I tried to act cool in the scene,
But got trapped and lost in it myself.
In vain, I wandered the streets.
Ah, I gathered a crowd and ran away.
ஆச அட யார விட்டுச்சு
காதல் என் கண்ண கட்டுச்சு
சூடா அட கண்ணீர் முட்டுச்சு
விட்டு விட்டு ச்சே ரத்தம் ஆடுச்சே
சீன்னா நான் சுத்தி திரிஞ்சேன்
தானா அதில் சிக்கி தொலைச்சேன்
வீணா நான் ரோட்டில் அலைஞ்சேன்
ஆ கூட்ட கட்டுனேன் ஓட்டம் ஓடுனேன்
Wretched love tortured me.
Tattooed your name, then inked over and covered it up.
Ah, it made me dance and made me watch the show.
It enforced rules and completely ruined me.
கேடு கேட்ட காதல் என்ன வாட்டுச்சே
உன் பேர அடிச்சு பச்சை குதி மூடுச்சே
அட ஆட விட்டு ஆட்டம் காண வச்சுச்சே
சட்டம் போட்டுச்சே வச்சு செஞ்சுசே
ஹா....ஆஅ....ஹா....ஆஅ....ஹா....
ஏதோ மறந்தேனே ஏதோ இழந்தேனே
ஏதோ மிதந்தேனே என்னை உணர்ந்தேனே
இதுதான் அதுவா உடைந்தேன்
Haaa...aaa...haaa..aaaa..haaaa..
I forgot something, I lost something.
I floated on something, I realized myself.
Is this that? I broke into pieces.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Un goppamavale from Emakku Thozhil Romance is an energetic contemporary heartbreak song expressed through hyper-colloquial Tamil slang. The protagonist laments his state after being dumped by his lover, mixing anguish with humorous self-pity as he questions why he ever fell for her.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Pop Culture Allusion / Metaphor
“Nammoda kaalam idhayam murali”
Compares the protagonist's tragic unrequited love state to 'Idhayam Murali', the quintessential tragic lover character portrayed by actor Murali in the 1991 cult film Idhayam.
Anaphora / Parallelism
“Yendi en kannil viluntha / Yendi en nenjil valantha”
Repetition of 'Yendi en' at the start of adjacent lines creates a rhythmic, questioning cadence characteristic of Tamil folk melodies.
Colloquial Idiomatic Hyperbole
“Nee kooru pottu / Konnutiye enna than / Naan kokku maaka aanen”
Uses Chennai Tamil slang 'kokku maaka' (foolish/clueless) and 'kooru pottu' (chopping into pieces) to dramatically convey severe emotional betrayal.
Did you know?
Trivia
The line 'Nammoda kaalam idhayam murali' references late Tamil actor Murali, famous across Tamil cinema for portraying unexpressed, tragic lovers, particularly in the film Idhayam (1991).
