Inji Idupazhaga Song from Thevar Magan (Tamil) – Lyrics in English with Translation

Inji Iduppazhaga Manja Sivapazhaga

Kalla Siripazhaga ……. (F)

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiyae, Right

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is handsome

Naughty smile is handsome

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you

Inji Idupazhagi Manja Sivapazhagi

Kalla Sirippazhagi

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiye

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is beauty

Naughty smile is beautiful

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you

Marakkuma Maaman Ennam

Mayakkuthae Panjavarnam

Madiyilae Oonjal Poda Maanae Vaa

Can you forget beloved’s thoughts,

Hey intoxicating 5-colored bird?

I shall put swing in my lap,

Come near

Inji Idupazhagi Manja Sevapazhagi

Kalla Sirippazhagi

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiye (M)

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is beauty

Naughty smile is beautiful

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you

 

Thannanth Thanichirukka Thathalichu Thaanirukka

Un Ninaippil Naan Parichen Thaamaraiya (F)

While I sat alone,

I struggled myself (as if drowning in water)

In your thoughts, I plucked a lotus

Punnai Vanathinila Pedai Kuyil Koovayile

Unnudaiya Vethanaiyai Naan Arinjen (M)

While the female cuckoo cooed in forest

I came to know your pain

Un Kaluthil Malaiyida Unnirandu Tholai Thoda

Enna Thavam Senjeno En Mamaaa (F)

To put garland around your neck,

To touch both your shoulders,

What, what penance have I taken, beloved!

Vannakkili Kaiyai Thoda Chinna Chinna Kolamida

Ullam Mattum Un Vazhiye Naane

Ullam Mattum Un Vazhiyae Naaney (M)

While she is drawing Kolam,

The bird is touching her fingers,

My heart is drawn towards you

Inji Iduppazhaga Manja Sevapazhaga

Kalla Sirippazhaga

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiye (F)

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is handsome

Naughty smile is handsome

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you

Inji Iduppazhagi Manja Sivapazhagi

Kalla Sirippazhagi

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiyae (M)

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is beauty

Naughty smile is beautiful

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you

 

Adikkira Kaaththai Kelu

Asaiyura Naaththai Kelu

Nadakira Aatha Kelu, Nee Thanaa (F)

Ask the blowing wind

Ask the dancing crop

Ask the walking goat

Is it you?

Inji Iduppazhagi Manja Sivapazhagi

Kalla Sirippazhagi

Marakka Manam Kooduthilaiyae (M)

Ginger waist beauty

Yellowish fair complex is beauty

Naughty smile is beautiful

My heart doesn’t allow to forget you
