Appanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Adangappanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Podava thoppu karnam podava Naan paadava paattu paadi aadavaa
Anbu enakku romba irukku Vambu vazhakku innum yethukku
Adangappanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Podava thoppu karnam podava Naan paadava paattu paadi aadavaa
Vaathiyangal ennenna sol vaasikiren Vaathiyaru endru unnai nesikkiren
Vedikkai viththai ellaam kathukkuren Verenna seiya venum othukkuren
Ishtapadi sollu nadakkiren Ennai naanae vittu kodukkuren
Suttithanam aththanaiyum Vittuvidu raaja
Adangappanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Podava thoppu karnam podava
Paarvathi petrueduthaal Rendu pillai
Baalagan murugano nalla pillai Nee mattum romba romba chutti pillai
Thaanga villai nee seiyum anbu thollai Kaatil unnai kandu eduthavan
Kaadhal vaithu unnai valarthavan Unnai pola ullam ulla nalla pillai raaja
Appanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Podava thoppu karnam podava
Aarattum nenjil ulla thazhumbugal Pogattum munnam seitha thavarugal
Thaai indri intha pillai thavikkiren Nee indri unthan annai thudikkiraal
Petha manam pithu pidithathu Pillai nalam enni kidakkuthu
Annai vasam unnai vaithen Ennai nambu raaja

Podava thoppu karnam podava Naan paadava paattu paadi aadavaa
Anbu enakku romba irukku Vambu vazhakku innum yethukku
Adangappanae appanae Pullaiyaar appanae
Podava thoppu karnam podava Naan paadava paattu paadi aadavaa
Song Meaning & Analysis
The song "Appane Appane" from "Annai Or Aalayam" is a poignant plea from a father figure (played by Rajinikanth) to a mischievous young boy, who he has raised, to reconcile with his biological mother. The lyrics are framed as a conversation, with the father addressing the boy affectionately as "Appane" (father/lord, often used for Ganesha, implying the boy is like a deity or a revered figure, but also a playful term for a child). He tries to persuade the boy to abandon his stubbornness and return to his mother, who is distraught without him.
The song highlights themes of parental love, reconciliation, and the emotional turmoil of a separated family. The father figure uses gentle persuasion, reminding the boy of his mother's suffering and promising to facilitate their reunion. He acknowledges the boy's playful nature ("chutti pillai" - mischievous child) but emphasizes the importance of healing past wounds and letting go of grievances for the sake of familial harmony. The reference to Lord Murugan as a "good child" in contrast to the boy's mischief adds a touch of playful chiding while reinforcing the underlying affection.
