MOONDRAM PIRAI | KANNE KALAIMANE SONG LYRICS | ENGLISH MEANING


Kanne Kalaimane Kanni Mayilena, Kanden Unnai Nane,
Dear beautiful deer, I have spotted you like a young peacock.
Anthi Pagal Unnai Nan Parkiren, Andavanai Ithai Than Ketkiren, Rariraro Orariro Rariraro Orariro,
I see you day and night, that’s the only thing I want from God.

Kanne Kalaimane Kanni Mayilena, Kanden Unnai Nane.
Dear beautiful deer, I have spotted you like a young peacock.
Oomai Endral Oru Vagai Amaithi,
When you were mute, it’s nice in a way.

Yelai Endral Athil Oru Amaithi, Neeyo Kili Pedu,
If you were poor, there’s comfort in that, too.
Panpadum Anantha Kuyil Pedu,
You’re a parrot’s little one or a cuckoo’s little one singing about the world.

Yeno Deivam Sathi Seithathu, Pethai Pole Vithi Seithathu,
For whatever reason, God has betrayed you, life has made you mentally unstable.
Kanne Kalaimane Kanni Mayilena, Kanden Unnai Nane,
Dear beautiful deer, I have spotted you like a young peacock.

Anthi Pagal Unnai Nan Parkiren, Andavanai Ithai Than Ketkiren, Rariraro Orariro Rariraro Orariro,
I see you day and night, that’s the only thing I want from God.
Kadhal Konden Kanavinai Valarthen,
I felt love, I dreamed and I nurtured it.

Kanmani Unnai Nan Karuthinil Niraithen,
O sweet one, I filled my thoughts with you.
Unake Uyiranen Ennalum Ennai Nee Maravadhe,
I have become your life. Don’t ever think about me.

Nee Illamal Ethu Nimathi, Nee Than Endrum En Sannithi,
What is harmony without you? You are my holy sanctuary.
Kanne Kalaimane Kanni Mayilena, Kanden Unnai Nane,
Dear beautiful deer, I have spotted you like a young peacock.

Anthi Pagal Unnai Nan Parkiren, Andavanai Ithai Than Ketkiren, Rariraro Orariro Rariraro Orariro.
I see you day and night, that’s the only thing I want from God.
