Venaa venaa vilunthiduvenaa
Kangal kandal kavunthiduvenaa
Oru murai sirikiraai
Yen uyirinai parikiraai
Kangal rendum anugunda
Kathi kulla poochanda
Inbamana sirai unda
Eera vizhiyil idam unda
Kadavul boomi vanthaal
Un kannai paarka vendum
Manithan pavam endru
Avan merandu poga vendum
Venaa venaa vilunthiduvenaa
Kangal kandal kavunthiduvenaa
Valaiyatha nathigalil ellaam
Nathigal endru aagaathu
Sinungaatha kolusugal ellaam
Sangeethangal paadaathu
Madiyinil thalaiyanai seithaai
Mella vanthu manathinil kalavaram seithaai
Oru kannil vanmurai seithaai
Pavam endru maru kannil marunthugal thanthaai
Oh-ho vaseegaraa vaseegaraa
Nee vatham seiya nitham vara vendum
Valaikaram udaithida vendum
Idhayam varudi vidava
Un idhayam thirudi vidava
Vizhiyil nulainthu vidava
Yen vazhiyai maranthu vidava
Venaa venaa vilunthiduvenaa
Kangal kandal kavunthiduvenaa

Aiyaiyo hitler pennae

January nilavennai kollum
Vetkam indri jana gana mana solli sellum
Kuru kuru paarvaigal sollum
Seithi enna kadavulum pulambuvan innum
Oh-ho gundu malli gundu malli
Athil pattu pattu pattampoochi aanaai
Thottu thottu gundu vaithu ponaai
Yenakul unnai tholaithu
Nee unakul yennai thedu
Irandu uyirgal irunthal
Athu kaadhal endru kooru
Venaa venaa vilunthiduvenaa
Kangal kandal kavunthiduvenaa
Oru murai sirikiraai
Yen uyirinai parikiraai
Kangal rendum anugunda
Kathi kulla poochanda
Inbamana sirai unda
Eera vizhiyil idam unda
Kadavul boomi vanthaal
Un kannai paarka vendum
Manithan pavam endru
Avan merandu poga vendum
No, no, will I fall for you?
If my eyes meet yours, will I be swept away?
You smile just once,
and snatch my life away.
Both your eyes are atom bombs,
like a sharp blade inside a flower.
Is there a sweet prison like this?
Is there a place in your moist eyes?
If God comes down to Earth,
He must see your eyes.
Seeing how helpless man is,
He must recoil in awe.
No, no, will I fall for you?
If my eyes meet yours, will I be swept away?
Rivers that do not curve and bend
cannot truly be called rivers.
Anklets that do not chime in play
cannot sing sweet music.
You turned your lap into a pillow.
You softly came and stirred up chaos in my heart.
With one eye you committed violence,
and in pity, with the other eye you gave the cure.
Oh my enchanter, my enchanter!
You must come every day to torment me.
You must break the bangles on my wrists.
Shall I gently stroke your heart?
Shall I steal your heart away?
Shall I enter into your eyes?
Shall I forget my own way?
No, no, will I fall for you?
If my eyes meet yours, will I be swept away?
[Music]
Oh dear, my Hitler girl,
what have you done to me?
Did you see my hormones
playing like harmoniums?
The January moon is killing me,
shamelessly standing to attention and walking away.
The news these playful gazes tell,
even God would babble about it!
Oh round jasmine, round jasmine,
on it you became a silky butterfly!
Touching me gently, you planted bombs and left.
Losing yourself inside me,
search for me inside yourself.
If two souls exist as one,
call that true love.
No, no, will I fall for you?
If my eyes meet yours, will I be swept away?
You smile just once,
and snatch my life away.
Both your eyes are atom bombs,
like a sharp blade inside a flower.
Is there a sweet prison like this?
Is there a place in your moist eyes?
If God comes down to Earth,
He must see your eyes.
Seeing how helpless man is,
He must recoil in awe.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

'Venaa Venaa' from the movie Vaseegara (2003) is a playful and romantic track that captures the intoxicating rush of falling in love. The song portrays a lover torn between resisting temptation and yielding completely to the mesmerizing charm of his beloved. Through vivid metaphors, the lyrics describe her lethal beauty—eyes like atom bombs, glances that play music on his hormones, and smiles that gently steal his soul away. The song highlights the push-and-pull dynamic of romance, blending lighthearted banter with intense passion. Pa. Vijay uses creative wordplay and imaginative imagery—such as comparing her strict yet allure-filled demeanor to a 'Hitler girl' and her eyes to violent weapons that simultaneously heal—to illustrate how love transforms life into a blissful, playful prison.

Metaphor

Kangal rendum anugunda / Kathi kulla poochanda

Comparing the eyes to atom bombs ('anugunda') and a flower inside a sword ('kathi kulla poochanda') to express both beauty and danger.

Hyperbole

Kadavul boomi vanthaal / Un kannai paarka vendum / Manithan pavam endru / Avan merandu poga vendum

Exaggerating the effect of her eyes to suggest even God would run away in fear after seeing human vulnerability.

Wordplay / Pun

Hormone-gal harmonium-gal / Vaasipathai kandaaiyo

Clever rhyming association between biological 'hormones' and the musical instrument 'harmoniums'.

Oxymoron

Oru kannil vanmurai seithaai / Pavam endru maru kannil marunthugal thanthaai

Pairing 'vanmurai' (violence/harm) with 'marunthugal' (medicine/healing) to show how her gaze both wounds and cures him.
