Kannadichu Kannadichu
Krishnaraj • From “Pottu Amman”
What is the meaning of Kannadichu Kannadichu Lyrics from Pottu Amman?
Krishnaraj sings of gazing until eyes ache. His breath is on fire from kissing. He waits for dawn as the lamp goes out, asking for more.
Vettukkili Kaththaricha PothumEven when the locusts have trimmed it all,
Kundu Malli Mottu Vittu PookkumThe plump jasmine buds will still bloom.
Jeyikkanum Vazhnthu JeyikkanumI’ve got to win, to live and to conquer.
Kannadichu KannadichuGazing and gazing,
Kannunthan Valichu PochuMy eyes have started to ache.
Muththamittu MuththamittuKissing and kissing,
Moochunthan Kodhichu PochuMy breath is on fire.
Vidiyum VidiyumunnuWaiting and waiting for the dawn,
Vilakkum Anainju PochuThe lamp has already gone out.
Innumenna VenuminnuWhat more could you want,
Sollividu Sollividu Mane ManeJust tell me, tell me, my dear, my dear.
Adi Mane Mane Mane ManeOh my dear, dear, dear, dear.

Kanne Un Kangalukku Mai Eduththu AlangariMy love, let me adorn your eyes with dark ‘kohl’ liner,
Sevvanthu Poo Idhazhukku Punnagaiyal AlangariLet me adorn your crimson, flower-like lips with a smile.

Nilavennum Neththikku Nee Pottu Vachu AlangariLet me adorn your moon-like forehead with a beautiful ‘pottu’ dot.
Kaloodu Saththamida Kolusinil AlangariLet me adorn you with anklets, so they jingle with your every step,
Tholodu Oonjalida Kammalittu AlangariLet me adorn you with earrings that swing upon your shoulders.
Kanavinil Dhinam VanthuShowing up in my dreams each day,
Ennai Kollum SundhariYou’re the beauty who slays me.

Nee Ennai Kondu AlangariYou must adorn it only with me.

Kanne Un Idhazukkul Eeram Theda AnumathiMy love, grant me permission to seek the wetness of your lips,
Viralgalin Urasalai Uyir Varai AnumathiPermission for the brush of my fingers to touch your very soul.
