Varavendum Oru Lyrics Meaning L. R. Eswari | Kalaikoil
Kannadasan compares anticipation to a stream and flower growth. ‘If it doesn’t arrive, you’ll never know the taste’ frames delayed fulfillment as essential. The lyricist links mutual restraint to deeper connection.
Varavendum Oru PoludhuA moment has to arrive
Varamalae Irundhaal Suvai TheriyaadhuIf it doesn’t, you’ll never know the taste
Varavendum Oru PoludhuA moment has to arrive
Varamalae Irundhaal Suvai TheriyaadhuIf it doesn’t, you’ll never know the taste
Kelamal Neeyum Tharamale NaanumYou without asking, and I without giving
Varamale Irundhaa Suvai TheriyadhuIf we hold back, the flavor stays unknown
Seradha Pennum Paaradha KannumThe untouched maiden, the eyes that haven’t seen
Orae Naalil Ore Vidham MalarndhennaWhat if they blossomed alike in a single day?
Varavendum Oru PoludhuA moment has to arrive
Varamalae Irundhaal Suvai TheriyaadhuIf it doesn’t, you’ll never know the taste
Neer Polae Oodai Nilavilae VaazhumLike a stream that lives within the moonlight
Adhae Inbam Adhae Sugam Varum IngaeThat same bliss, that same pleasure flows here
Paadamal Paada Koodamal KoodaSinging without a song, uniting without a touch
Idho Maadhu Idho Madhu Manam EngaeHere’s the maiden, here’s the wine—but where is the heart?
Varavendum Oru PoludhuA moment has to arrive
Varamalae Irundhaal Suvai TheriyaadhuIf it doesn’t, you’ll never know the taste
