Angamellam Thangamo
Seerkazhi Govindarajan • From “Vazhaiyadi Vazhai”
Vazhaiyadi Vazhai’s Angamellam Thangamo Tamil Lyrics English Translation
Maruthakasi compares the woman to a fresh flower stage, with the singer as a golden bee eager to dance. Later lines request consent to pluck a jasmine flower, shifting from admiration to seeking connection.
