Ponnoonjal Katti Lyrics Translation — Thaai Piranthal | S. Janaki
S. Janaki delivers ‘Ponnoonjal Katti’ from the Thaai Piranthal album. Lyricist Aalangudi Somu and composer M. S. Viswanathan shape a devotional melody through serene vocals and graceful instrumentation. The track presents a wife viewing her husband as her entire golden world.
Aalangudi Somu contrasts endless love with fragile desire through phrases like ‘Neengaatha anporu naal neerkkumizhi aavathundu.’ This compares permanent devotion to temporary attachments. S. Janaki declares her identity exists solely within her partner: ‘Unnilae naanirunthaa Ulagae enai mathikkum.’
