Kapil Kapilan’s “Gunde Gudilo,” from the album 12A Railway Colony, features Allari Naresh and Kamakshi Bhaskarla. The song, with lyrics by Dev Pawar, begins with the line that he once hid his love inside the “temple of his heart.” This establishes a sacred and protective feeling toward his partner.
The lyrics then shift this image from a place of peace to a source of pain. The person he cherished is now described as a “noise in his heart,” disturbing his world. He explains that his dreams are melting away, becoming an overwhelming ocean that threatens to drown him.
Gunde Gudilo DaachukunnaaneI hid you away in the temple of my heart
Gunde Sadila MaaripoyaveYou’ve become the noise in my heart
Kanta Tadivai JaarutunnaveYou’re falling as a tear from my eye
Pilla Nee Valla Yedhola AyyaneGirl, because of you, I’m completely lost
Velle Daarullo Vadilesi PoyaveYou left me behind on the path I was walking
Yelage Neetho YelageHow can it be, with you, how?
Undale Nenu IlageI have to go on living like this
Yelage Neetho YelageHow can it be, with you, how?
Undale Nenu IlageI have to go on living like this
Ninne Chuse Kannulakemo KanniroccheThe eyes that look for you are now filled with tears
Ninne Chere Daarulu Yemo Daare MarcheThe paths that led to you have changed their course
Yemai Poyave Naa Usure TeesaveWhat have you become? You’ve taken my very breath away
Chuttu Pakkala Yevaru Unna Ne ChullekunnaI don’t see anyone around me anymore
Cheragaani Guruthulatho JeevistunnaI’m living with memories that can’t be erased
Kanti Reppala Chaatuna Ninne Daachi YedustunnaHiding you behind my eyelids, I continue to cry
Kalale Karigi Kadalai PotunnaMy dreams are melting and becoming an ocean
Gunde Gudilo DaachukunnaaneI hid you away in the temple of my heart
Gunde Sadila MaaripoyaveYou’ve become the noise in my heart
Kanta Tadivai JaarutunnaveYou’re falling as a tear from my eye
Pilla Nee Valla Yedhola AyyaneGirl, because of you, I’m completely lost
Velle Daarullo Vadilesi PoyaveYou left me behind on the path I was walking
Yelage Neetho YelageHow can it be, with you, how?
Undale Nenu IlageI have to go on living like this
Yelage Neetho YelageHow can it be, with you, how?
Undale Nenu IlageI have to go on living like this
Nuvve Leka Naa Gunde Rendai VidipoyeWithout you, my heart has split in two
Nuvvellaka Naa Maatemo ModaipoyeSince you left, my voice has gone silent
Yella Jariginde Naa Pille PoyindeHow did this happen? My girl is gone
Chethuletthi Mokke Devudikemo DayaledhayeThe god I prayed to with raised hands showed no mercy
Gonthu Yetthi Pilichina VinapadadhayeMy desperate calls went unheard
Vidipoye Jantanu Kaalam Illa KalipindhayeThis is how time has joined a broken couple
Manase Chithiki Chithike PoyeneMy heart has been shattered into pieces
Gunde Gudilo DaachukunnaaneI hid you away in the temple of my heart
Gunde Sadila MaaripoyaveYou’ve become the noise in my heart
Kanta Tadivai JaarutunnaveYou’re falling as a tear from my eye
Pilla Nee Valla Yedhola AyyaneGirl, because of you, I’m completely lost
Velle Daarullo Vadilesi PoyaveYou left me behind on the path I was walking
Yelage Neetho YelageHow can it be, with you, how?
Undaale Nenu IlageI have to go on living like this
The song details the complete collapse of a man’s world after being left behind. Familiar paths now lead nowhere, and his prayers for help go unanswered. The meaning of the ‘Gunde Gudilo’ lyrics centers on a love that transforms from a divine presence into a destructive force.
