Tere Ishk Mein’s O Kadhale Lyrics Translation

The verses continue this idea of a damaging attraction. A man describes looking for affection in the same eyes that cause him injury. He then claims he would swim in a “fire ocean” of this love with no thought of returning.

Hoo OoHoo Oo
O Kadhale Maru SeygiraiOh love, you’ve turned against me
Yen TheendhiyeBy touching me
Vanjam SeygiraiYou’ve committed a betrayal
Hoo OoHoo Oo
Kayam Seyum KangalilIn eyes that cause such pain
Kadhal ThedinenI went searching for love
Kadhal Ennai ThediyeBut love came searching for me
Kayam SeydhadheOnly to leave me wounded
Theekkadal EndralumeEven if it were an ocean of fire
Un Kadhal NeendhinenI swam in your love
Meelave EnnamaleWith no thought of ever returning
Nan Ennai NeenginenI abandoned myself completely
Ennai Pola Kadhal SeyumA man who loves the way I do
Kadhal Veeran Ennai ParadiLook at me, this warrior in love
O Kadhale Maru SeygiraiOh love, you’ve turned against me
Yen TheendhiyeBy touching me
Vanjam SeygiraiYou’ve committed a betrayal
O Kadhale Maru SeygiraiOh love, you’ve turned against me
Yen TheendhiyeBy touching me
Vanjam SeygiraiYou’ve committed a betrayal
Hoo OoHoo Oo
Hoo OoHoo Oo
