O Kadhale
A.R. Rahman | Adithya RK • From “Tere Ishk Mein”
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.

This song presents a cycle where the search for love leads directly to pain. The man’s response is not to escape but to surrender himself completely. The music and lyrics together create a full picture of dedication to a consuming passion.
