Yedi Kallachi
N.R. Raghunanthan | Vijay Prakash • From “Thenmerku Paruvakaatru”
What is the meaning of Yedi Kallachi Lyrics from Thenmerku Paruvakaatru?
Vairamuthu writes a back-and-forth dialogue filled with metaphors and wit. The lyricist mentions thorns and a hen to describe the push and pull of love. One line stands out: ‘Aren’t you the hand? Aren’t I the fruit?’
Yedi KallachiHey, you cunning girl.
Enna TheriyalaiyaDon’t you recognize me?
Podi VellachiGo on, you fair-skinned girl.
Enna PuriyalaiyaDon’t you understand me?
Nenjil Nongudhu Nongudhu UnnaMy heart aches and aches for you.
Un Kal Rendum Pogudhu PinnaBut your feet keep walking away.
Naan Muththam Poda Thudikkiren UnnaI’m dying to give you a kiss.
Nee Mulla Katti Adikkira KannaBut you’re hitting me with thorns, my dear.
Nee Kai ThanaAren’t you the hand?
Pazham ThanaAren’t I the fruit?
Sonnal EnnaSo what’s the harm in just saying it?
Yedi KallachiHey, you cunning girl.
Enna TheriyalaiyaDon’t you recognize me?
Podi VellachiGo on, you fair-skinned girl.
Enna PuriyalaiyaDon’t you understand me?
Aththamagan Pola VandhuYou come around like you have a right to me,
Anga Inga Meivawandering wherever you please.
Aththu Vana Kattil VittuBut you’ll just leave this woven cot,
Athukkittu Povaand run right off.
Mulluthaicha Adu PolaLike a goat that’s been pricked by a thorn,
Nenjukkuzhi Noghamy heart is in pain.
Muttai Yitta Kadai IngeThe hen who laid her eggs is here,
Kattai Vittu Pogabut the rooster has already left the coop.
Kedai Attu Komiyam KudaEven something foul can seem tempting,
Oru Aru Asai Varumbut that desire only lasts a moment.
Kirukketrum Ambala SollumA man’s crazy promises,
Marunale Marividumare forgotten by the next day.
Naan Pombala Kirukkula VallaI’m not driven mad by some woman’s charms.
En Buththiyil Ver Onnum IllaThere’s nothing else on my mind.
Naan Udumbukku Porandhavan PullaI’m the son of a ‘monitor lizard,’ so I’ll never let go.
Sonna Oru Sollu MaruvadhillaAnd I don’t go back on my word.
Nee Verum Vaya MelladhaDon’t just chew on empty words.
VelaiyattillaThis isn’t a game.
Yedi KallachiHey, you cunning girl.
Enna TheriyalaiyaDon’t you recognize me?
Podi VellachiGo on, you fair-skinned girl.
Enna PuriyalaiyaDon’t you understand me?
Aandippatti ThalukkavilIn Andipatti town,
Pombalaikka Panjamis there a shortage of women?
Aaga Moththam Unna KanduBecause after all that, I saw you,
Aadi Pochu Nenjamand my heart was completely shaken.
Piththam Konjam Koodi PonaWhen a man’s obsession gets a little too strong,
Ippadithan Kenjumhe’ll beg just like this.
Saththam Podum Nenju KoottaYou need to quiet that noisy heart of yours,
Saththi Vaiyi Konjamjust for a little while.
Kodi Odum Sakkara ValliA ‘sweet potato’ vine puts down roots,
Theriyama Kezhangu Vaikkumwithout anyone even knowing.
Athu Pola Pombala SathiJust like that, a woman’s heart,
Ariyama Manasa Vaikkumwill give itself away without her realizing.
Nee Pattunu Munna Vanthu NilluWhy don’t you just come and stand before me?
En Pottula Adichu Nee SolluLook me in the eye and say it.
Ini Namakkulla Ethukku En MulluWhy should there be these thorns between us anymore?
Ada Navukku Thooram Illa PalluAfter all, the teeth are never far from the tongue.
Naan Mudi Poda Ready ThandiI’m ready to tie the knot, you know.
Mudiva SolluJust tell me your decision.
Yedi KallachiHey, you cunning girl.
Enna TheriyalaiyaDon’t you recognize me?
Podi VellachiGo on, you fair-skinned girl.
Enna PuriyalaiyaDon’t you understand me?
