Thalavali Lyrics Translation G. V. Prakash | Vinnulaga Kavi | Dear
Vinnulaga Kavi uses ‘Tom and Jerry’ to describe the chaotic relationship dynamic. The chorus bluntly states the partner is a ‘headache’ with no remaining feelings.
Kedi Lady Thalli PodiYou shady lady, get away from me.
Needhaan Ennoda ThalavaliYou’re the one who’s my headache.
Mental Aagi Ponen NaandiI’ve gone completely crazy because of you, girl.
Adichadhu Yellaamey EranguthadiThe buzz I had is finally wearing off now.
A Kaanja KaruvadaLike a piece of salty dried fish,
En Life Ah MaathivittaYou’ve changed my life forever.
Adi Kanna Moodiyum ThoongavidaamaYou won’t let me sleep even with my eyes shut,
Kaadha Potha VittaYou’ve forced me to block my ears.
Enna Inga Vanthu NiruthiYou brought me here and made me stop,
En Nenja Thinna OruthiYou’re the girl who’s eaten my heart away.
Ava Sonna Varthayellam NambiI believed every single word she said,
Naanum Nadu Roatil NinnenAnd I ended up stranded in the middle of the road.
Thenam Thenam UnthollaEvery single day your pestering,
Enaku Inidhaan IllaIsn’t something I can take anymore.
Baby Needhaan En ThalavaliBaby, you’re the one who’s my headache.
Enakku Dhaan UllaDeep inside of me,
Feelingslaan IllaI don’t have any feelings left.
Tata Bye Bye Di ThalavaliIt’s tata, bye-bye to you, my headache.
Thalavali Thalavali ThalavaliHeadache, headache, headache.
Hey Life Beautiful Feeling DhaaneyLife is a beautiful feeling, isn’t it?
Cute Ah Kutty Kutty Moments DhaaneyIt’s full of cute, little moments, right?
Fresh Ah Nitham Oru Duetu DhaaneyIt’s like a fresh new duet every day, right?
Aanaa Unmaiyila Ellam Poi DhaaneyBut in truth, it was all just a lie.
Sonnaley SonnaleyShe said it, she really said it.
Unmaiyathan SonnaleyShe told me the actual truth.
Kuthham Onnum Yethuvum IllaThere’s no fault or blame in it,
Ulladhathaan SonnaleyShe just said what was in her heart.
En Buthikku YeralayeIt just didn’t sink into my head,
En Manasu KekkalayeAnd my heart refused to listen.
Podi Nee Venaan DiJust get lost, I don’t want you,
Ellam En ThalavidhiyeIt’s all just my unlucky fate.
Thenam Thenam UnthollaEvery single day your pestering,
Enaku Inidhaan IllaIsn’t something I can take anymore.
Baby Needhaan En ThalavaliBaby, you’re the one who’s my headache.
Enakku Dhaan UllaDeep inside of me,

Unnala Enakku Mattum Tension DhaaneI’m the only one getting stressed because of you.
Nitham Vaazhkai Oru Thalavali DhaaneyEveryday life has become a constant headache.
Nee En Thalavali Aiyo En ThalavaliYou’re my headache, oh, you’re my headache.
Ellam En Thalavidhi Ellam En ThalavidhiIt’s all my fate, it’s all my destiny.
