Sugamana Sindhanai Lyrics Translation (from “Taxi Driver”)
Kannadasan writes ‘Your beautiful body is a playground, my chest its field.’ Another line states ‘Not as two, but as one for some time.’ These phrases frame physical and spiritual unity without overt symbolism.
Sugamaana Sinthanaiyil Idhamaana UravoduLost in pleasant thoughts, within this gentle bond.
Sorkkangal VarugindranaIt feels like the heavens are descending here.
Manam Pola MaangalyamA sacred union exactly as the heart desired.
Ini Veru Edhu VendumWhat else could I possibly need now?
