Unmai Therinthirukkum
Vani Jairam • From “Subrabatham”
What is the meaning of Unmai Therinthirukkum Lyrics from Subrabatham?
Kannadasan references Krishna’s butter theft to question divine inaction. He contrasts playful past deeds with current needs: ‘Are you only skilled at stealing sarees, or can you catch thieves?’
Unmai Therinthirukkum Oruvanaiyaa Kannaa NeeAren’t you the one who knows the truth, oh Krishna?
Ullangalai Purintha IraivanaiyaaYou’re the Lord who has understood our hearts.
Unmai Therinthirukkum Oruvanaiyaa Kannaa NeeAren’t you the one who knows the truth, oh Krishna?
Ullangalai Purintha IraivanaiyaaYou’re the Lord who has understood our hearts.
Vennei Thirudiya Un KangalukkuTo your eyes that once stole butter,
Un Veettil Thirudiyavan Inam TheriyumThe thief in your own house must be easy to recognize.
