Ninaivil Nindraval’s Enna Theriyum Tamil Lyrics English Translation
Vaali’s lines describe desire blooming with age and eyes becoming messengers. She asks what happens when touch melts shyness into closeness. The lyrics follow her gradual understanding through simple questions.
Enna Theriyum Indha Chinna PennukkuWhat does this little girl really know?
Onnum Theriyaadha Chella KannukkuThese darling eyes don’t know a single thing.
Vayadhu Vandhaal Nenjil Aasai VarumaamThey say when you come of age, desire fills your heart.
Aasai Avndhaal Kangal Thoodhu VidumaamWhen desire blooms, your eyes send out a message.
Vayadhu Vandhaal Nenjil Aasai VarumaamThey say that once you grow up, desire enters your heart.
Aasai Avndhaal Kangal Thoodhu VidumaamAnd when desire arrives, your eyes will carry the message.
Thoodhu Vittaal Oru Thunai VarumaamIf a message is sent, they say a companion will arrive.
Thunaivan Thottaal Thani Sugam VarumaamWhen that partner touches you, a unique joy awakens.
Thoodhu Vittaal Oru Thunai VarumaamIf a messenger is sent, they say a partner will come.
Thunaivan Thottaal Thani Sugam VarumaamOnce your companion touches you, a special pleasure begins.
Enna Theriyum Indha Chinna PennukkuWhat does this little girl really know?
Onnum Theriyaadha Chella KannukkuThese darling eyes don’t know a single thing.
Mudhal Mudhalaai Thoda Vetkam VarumaamThey say a certain shyness arrives with that very first touch.
Thodathodathaan Manam Pakkam VarumaamBut with every touch, your hearts will grow closer.
Mudhal Mudhalaai Thoda Vetkam VarumaamThey say that touching for the first time brings a sense of bashfulness.
Thodathodathaan Manam Pakkam VarumaamBut as you keep touching, your hearts will find each other.
Paruva Nilaa Kadhai AlandhidumaamThey say the moon of youth will weave a lovely story.
Vidintha Pinnum Adhu ThodarnthidumaamEven after the dawn, that story will continue.
Paruva Nilaa Kadhai AlandhidumaamThey say the moon in its prime will measure out a tale.
Vidintha Pinnum Adhu ThodarnthidumaamAnd even after the sun rises, it will keep on going.
Enna Theriyum Indha Chinna PennukkuWhat does this little girl really know?
Onnum Theriyaadha Chella KannukkuThese darling eyes don’t know a single thing.
