TrendMusic’s Kalaiyatha Kanavu Lyrics Translation
The perspective then changes to acknowledge this deep adoration from the other person. A direct confession follows, admitting an inability to accept the other’s heart at this time. This introduces a quiet conflict between a person’s desire and their readiness for commitment.
Kalaiyadha KanavukkulInside an unbreakable dream
Kavidhaiyena Nee VandhaiYou came into my life like a poem
Varaiyadha OviyathilOn a canvas yet unpainted
Varnangal TheetugiraiYou are brushing on the colors
Oru Nalum Unai NanumOne day, I need you to hold my hand
Kai Pidikka Nee Venum(line combined with above)
Nam Vazhum Vovvoru NodikkumFor every moment that we live
Gadigaram Kann KalangumThe clock’s own eyes will fill with tears
Nan Unadharuginil Irundhidum PoludhuWhen I’m standing here right beside you
Ver Enna Nan KetppadhuWhat more could I ever ask for?
Unn Viral Idaiyinil Vazhnthidum PoludhuWhen I’m living between your fingers
Vazhi Engum Vali TheerumooIt feels like all my pain will disappear
Kalaiyadha KanavukkulInside an unbreakable dream
Kavidhaiyena Nee VandhaiYou came into my life like a poem
Varaiyadha OviyathilOn a canvas yet unpainted
Varnangal TheetugiraiYou are brushing on the colors
Oru Nalum Unai NanumOne day, I need you to hold my hand
Kai Pidikka Nee Venum(line combined with above)
Nam Vazhum Vovvoru NodikkumFor every moment that we live
Gadigaram Kann KalangumThe clock’s own eyes will fill with tears
Nee Seiyum VovondrumEvery little thing you do
Azhagaga ThondrudhadaSeems so beautiful to me
Unnodu VazhathanAnd the thought of living with you
Asaigal ThoondudhadaStirs up so many desires
Irundhalum Un IdhayathaiBut even so, when it comes to your heart
Yerppadharkku ThonavillaiI don’t feel ready to accept it
Un Ninaivum En NenjilYour memory lives in my heart
Yen Endru TheriyavillaiAnd I don’t know the reason why
Un Nizhal NeezhadhadhooCan’t your shadow stretch a little longer?
Adhil En Uruvam SeradhadhooSo that my own can join within it?
En Vizhi Parthu NeeWon’t you look into my eyes
Oru Mozhi PesadaAnd speak a single word?
Andha Mozhi PesidaTo speak that one word
Pudhu Vazhi ThedadiYou must find a new way
Kalaiyadha KanavukkulInside an unbreakable dream
Kavidhaiyena Nee VandhaiYou came into my life like a poem
Varaiyadha OviyathilOn a canvas yet unpainted
Varnangal TheetugiraiYou are brushing on the colors
Oru Nalum Unai NanumOne day, I need you to hold my hand
Kai Pidikka Nee Venum(line combined with above)
Nam Vazhum Vovvoru NodikkumFor every moment that we live
Gadigaram Kann KalangumThe clock’s own eyes will fill with tears
Nan Unadharuginil Irundhidum PoludhuWhenever I am near you
Ver Enna Nan KetppadhuThere’s nothing else I’d want
Unn Viral Idaiyinil Vazhnthidum PoludhuWhen my world exists between your fingers
Vazhi Engum Vali TheerumooAll the suffering seems to fade away
The track takes the form of a conversation with a repeating refrain. This structure contrasts the idealized “unbreakable dream” with a more complicated personal reality. The song’s meaning is tied to the space between feeling love and being able to fully receive it.
