Enthan Kannal Lyrics English Translation: Nalanthana | Kannadasan | P. Susheela
P. Susheela’s voice brings a delicate ache to “Enthan Kannal,” from the album “Nalanthana.” Pulamai Pithan wrote the lyrics, with music by Malaysia Vasudevan and Vani Jairam. This Tamil track captures a deeply felt confession.
Pulamai Pithan’s writing details a woman’s silent communication. She sent a “letter through her eyes,” but received no reply. P. Susheela’s character waits restlessly, feeling her “youth” will not allow her to sleep. She calls unacknowledged love a “disease that wastes me.”

The album “Nalanthana” conveys the burden of affection left unacknowledged. This situation brings torment, fearing youth is slipping away in silence. The “Enthan Kannal” lyrics meaning outlines this desperate, non-verbal plea for recognition in Tamil.
