ஏண்டி என்ன இப்படி பாக்குற
உன்னா தாண்டி நானும்
போக முடியல
வழி ஏதும் தெரியல புல்லை
இப்போ வலிக்குது நெஞ்சம் தாங்கல
Why are you looking at me like this, girl?
Beyond you, I...
Cannot seem to go anywhere.
I don't see any other way, girl.
Now my heart aches, I can't bear it.
முதல் நாள் உன்ன பாத்தேனே
அழகி நீயும் ஓவியமே
ரெக்க இல்லாம பறந்தேனே
சந்திரனில் கால பதிச்சேனே
ஓ ஓ ஓ ஓ ...
The first day I saw you,
You beautiful girl, you were like a painting.
I flew without wings,
I set my foot on the moon.
Oh oh oh oh
கலை அழகி கண்ணம்மா
எனக்கு என்னைக்குமே
நீ தான் உயிர் அம்மா
கலை அழகி கண்ணம்மா
எனக்கு என்னைக்குமே
நீ தான் உயிர் அம்மா
Oh artistic beauty, Kannamma,
For me, forever,
You are my very life, my dear.
Oh artistic beauty, Kannamma,
For me, forever,
You are the epitome of beauty, my dear.
குண்டு முழி கண்ணு பேரழகி பொண்ணு
வந்த நேரம் குடிசை கோவில் ஆனதே
உன்னுடைய முகத்தில் பெத்தவள பாத்தேன்
கல் மனசில் இப்போ பூ பூக்குதே
Girl with round staring eyes and breathtaking beauty,
The moment you arrived, my humble hut turned into a temple.
In your face, I saw my own mother who gave birth to me.
Flowers are now blooming in my stone-hard heart.
ஓ ஏதோ வாழ்தேன் எதுவும் புரியாம
ஏக்கம் தீரும் உன்னால தானே
ஏனோ சொந்தம் இல்லாம போனாலும் வாழ்க்கை
இப்போ குஷி ஆகி போகுதே
Oh, I lived somehow without understanding anything,
Only because of you will my longing finally end.
Even if life went on without any kin or bonds,
Now it is becoming filled with pure joy.
எனக்காக ஒருத்தி
அவ என்ன மாத்தி
அட துள்ளி துள்ளி மனசு
இப்போ எகிறி குதிக்குதே
எல்லை மமீறுதே
என்ன கட்டி போடுதே
There is someone for me now,
She transformed me completely,
Oh, leaping and bounding, my heart
Is now jumping with excitement!
It crosses all boundaries,
It completely ties me down.
கலை அழகி கண்ணம்மா
எனக்கு என்னைக்குமே
நீ தான் உயிர் அம்மா
அன்ப தேடி அலைஞ்சவன் புள்ள
இங்க உன்ன விட்ட யாரும் எனக்கு இல்ல
Oh artistic beauty, Kannamma,
For me, forever,
You are the epitome of beauty, my dear.
I was someone who wandered searching for love, girl,
Here, except for you, I have no one else.
உன்னோட வாசனை நான் புடுச்சேன்
உன் விறல் பிடிக்க ஆச பட்டென்
உலகம் இருட்டை இளந்திடுச்சு
வெளிச்சம் இப்போ தங்கிடுச்சு
உன்னால தான் நான்
I caught the scent of your fragrance,
I longed to hold your fingers.
The world has lost its darkness,
The light has now stayed permanently.
It is only because of you that I exist.
கலை அழகி கண்ணம்மா
எனக்கு எல்லாமே
நீ தான் பொண்ணம்மா
Oh artistic beauty, Kannamma,
For me, everything
You are my precious girl.

Poetic devices
Metaphor (Uvamai Ani)
“Vantha neram kudisai kovil aanathe”
The lover's humble home and lonely life ('kudisai' / hut) are directly compared to a sacred 'kovil' (temple) upon the arrival of his beloved.
Metaphor (Uvamai Ani)
“Kal manasil ippo poo pookuthe”
The protagonist's hard, emotionally distant heart ('kal manas' / stone heart) is metaphorically described as blooming with soft flowers upon experiencing love.
Hyperbole (Uyarvu Navitchi Ani)
“Chanthiranil kaala pathichene”
Stepping onto the moon without wings is an exaggerated expression used to convey the euphoric feeling of falling in love.
Monai (Initial Rhyme / Alliteration)
“Anba thedi alanjavan pulla”
Repetition of the initial vowel sound 'A' in 'Anba' and 'alanjavan' creates a pleasing phonetic rhythm.
Iyaipu (End Rhyme)
“Kalai alagi kannamma ... Nee than uyir amma”
The poetic line-ending rhythm constructed around 'Kannamma' and 'Uyir amma' builds emotional cadence across the chorus.
