Jinukku Jikka Meaning & Lyrics (K R Soundarya | Lak)
D. P. Saanthi uses betel leaves as a marriage proposal symbol, while K R Soundarya’s character responds with shy affection, describing her longing through folk metaphors like thinning to an ant’s size.
Seettukatta Thooki VachenI’ve saved up my decks of cards,
Sillaraia Seththu Vachenand I’ve gathered up all my coins.
Moga Mutham Koduthu VachenI’ve kept a kiss just for your face,
Theralaiye Yengi Ninnenand I’ve been standing here, lost in longing.
Seethanama Unna KettenI asked for you to be my only treasure,
Singari Vandhu Thana Ninnaand you, my beauty, came and stood before me.
Arumugane VendikittenI prayed to Lord Arumugan,
Alli Malara Pooka Vachaand he made the water lily bloom for me.
