Dharmathin Thalaivan’s Thenmadurai Vaigai Nadhi Lyrics Translation

The verses move between two distinct forms of affection. One brother declares the other’s heart is his entire world. A suitor later admits he is the joyful “thief” who successfully stole the heart of the woman he loves. Both statements use direct language to confirm deep connections.
