Uriyadi’s Maane Maane Tamil Lyrics English Translation
Daasan compares his heart to sweet jaggery, asking his beloved where she hid it. He insists one lifetime feels insufficient to cherish her fully, framing devotion through Tamil rural imagery. Direct questions about her shyness anchor the song’s affectionate confusion.
