Nee Yaaro Lyrics Meaning Anand Aravindakshan | Mridula Warrier | Thudikkum Karangal
Viveka contrasts statements like ‘yesterday you refused me, today you want me’ with involuntary happiness. Anand Aravindakshan describes feet dancing at the mere thought of someone.
Nee Yaaro Ada Naan YaaroWho are you, and who am I?
Oru Nool Nammai Poo KorkkutheA single thread is weaving us together like flowers.
O Nee Yaaro Adi Naan YaaroOh, who are you, and who am I?
Indha Naal Nam Kai SerkkutheThis very day is joining our hands.
Sollave Vaarthai IllaiyeI don’t even have the words to say,
Ennavo Ennavo Aagi PochiSomething indescribable has happened to me.
Ullamum Vellamaai ThullutheMy heart is overflowing like a flood,
Mothamaai Mothamaai Maari PochiAnd everything has completely changed.
Unnai Nenachikittale PodhumThe moment I think of you,
Kaal Kudhichikitte Thaan AadumMy feet just start to dance on their own.
Nee Sirichikitte Thaan Thee MooturaYou set a fire with just a smile.
Unnai Anaichikittale PodhumThe moment I hold you close,
Manam Rayil Vandi Pola KoovumMy heart calls out like a train’s whistle.
Nee Purinjikitte Yen Poi PesuraYou know it too, so why are you pretending?
Netru Naan Vendam EndraaiYesterday, you said you didn’t want me,
Indru Naan Vendum EndraaiToday, you say that you do.
Yenadi Maari Maari Nee PesinaiWhy do you keep sending me mixed signals?
Thalli Nirkathane EnninenI really just meant to stay away,
Un Kalla Vizhiyaale Salliyaa OdanjenBut your captivating gaze shattered me to pieces.
Pottu Vaitha Kolam Thaandi ThaanOnce a ‘kolam’ floor pattern is drawn,
Ada Pulli Engum PogaathuIts guiding dots can never go astray.
Nee Theendum Kaatril EllamIn every breeze that you touch,
Nilaiyaana VaasamThere’s a scent that forever stays.
Poovum Neeyum Potti VaithaalIf you were to compete with a flower,
Nee VelluvaaiYou would be the one to win.
Kannil Kannil Thookkam IllaiyeThere is no sleep in my eyes at all,
Ennil Ennil Edho IllaiyeAnd there’s something missing from my soul.
Unnai Paarthu Kannai PaarthuBut when I see you, when I look in your eyes,
Andha Neram Andha NeramIn that very moment, that one instant,
Boomi Vaanam Sondham Aagum Vaa VaaThe earth and heavens become ours, so please, come.
Unnai Nenachikittale PodhumThe moment I think of you,
Kaal Kudhichikitte Thaan AadumMy feet just start to dance on their own.
Nee Sirichikitte Thaan Thee MooturaYou set a fire with just a smile.
Unnai Anaichikittale PodhumThe moment I hold you close,
Manam Rayil Vandi Pola KoovumMy heart calls out like a train’s whistle.
Nee Purinjikitte Yen Poi PesuraYou know it too, so why are you pretending?
