Kanne Kalaimaane Lyrics Translated

In this song, Kamal's character is singing to Sridevi's character. The story of Moondraam Pirai is about a troubled young man who finds a mentally ill girl about to be sold for the first time in a brothal. He rescues her from there and makes it his purpose in life to take care of her until he finds a way to cure her. The end however is a surprising twist and must be one of the most intensely tragic scenes ever screened. Here is the link to the song:

Kannae kalaimaanae kanni mayilenak kandaen unai naanae
Andhip pagal unai naan paarkkiraen
Aandavanai idhaiththaan kaetkiraen
Raariraaroa oaraariroa
Rariraaroa oaraariroa

(Kanne Kalaimaane)

Dear beautiful deer, I found you like a young peacock
I see you in the mornings and evenings (implying all day)
I'm asking god for this
(lullaby syllables)
(lullaby syllables)


Oomai enraal oru vagai amaidhi
Aezhai enraal adhil oru amaidhi
Neeyoa kilippaedu pan paadum aanandak kuyil paedu
Aeno dheyvam sadhi seydhadhu paedhai poala vidhi seydhadhu
(Kanne Kalaimaane)

If you were a mute, it is peaceful in a way
If you were poor, there is a peace in that too
You are a parrot's little one or a cuckoo's little one singing about the earth
For some reason, god has deceived you, fate has made you mentally ill


Kaadhal kondaen kanavinai valarththaen
Kanmani unai naan karuththinnil niraiththaen
Unakkae uyiraanaen ennaalum enai nee maravaadhae
Neeyillaamal edhu nimmadhi needhaanae en sannidhi
(Kanne Kalaimaane)


I felt love, I have dreamed and nurtured the love
Sweet one, I have filled my thoughts with you
I became your life, don't ever forget me
Without you, what is peace? You are my sacred sanctuary

  1. Good translation. And good format, avoiding repetitions of 'pallavi'
