Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven
Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Adha kettaa madaiyanukkum Nyaanam porandhidum
Moodi kedakkum pala Kannum therandhidum
Kettaa madaiyanukkum Nyaanam porandhidum
Ada moodi kedakkum pala Kannum therandhidum

Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Thevaaramum padichom Thiruvaasagamum padichom
Theriyaama thirukkuralum Thaan padichom
Aanaana padippai ellaam Annaadam padichuputtu
Puriyaama theriyaama Thaan muzhichom
Arivaana aathi chuvadi Kodutthaalae avvai paatti
Adhak kooda paadi Enna kizhichuputtom

Arivaana aathi chuvadi Koduthaalae avvai paatti

Indha dhesam romba mosam Idha paakkum podhu ippo

Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Ada potti pottaakkaa Romba ketta pulla thaan
Oru vaegam oru kobam Onnu serum podhu ippo

Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven
Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Adha kettaa madaiyanukkum Nyaanam porandhidum
Ada moodi kedakkum pala Kannum therandhidum

Enna paada chollaadhae Naan kanda padi paadippuduven

Song Meaning & Analysis

The song "Enna Pada" from "Aan Paavam" is a defiant and critical commentary on society, delivered through the voice of a strong-willed woman. She warns listeners not to ask her to sing, as her songs are not mere entertainment but powerful expressions of truth that can awaken even the most ignorant. She laments the superficiality of education, where ancient texts like Thevaram, Thiruvasagam, and Thirukkural are studied without true comprehension, leading to a lack of real wisdom or progress. The singer expresses deep frustration with the state of the nation and its people, criticizing the endless talk that yields no positive change.

The protagonist asserts her musical prowess, claiming knowledge of classical ragas, but emphasizes that her true purpose is to use her songs to expose injustice and societal flaws without fear. She uses vivid metaphors, like straightening a dog's tail or whitening a crow, to highlight the futility of trying to change inherent wrongs or impossible situations. Despite presenting herself as "just a girl," she warns that if challenged, she becomes a formidable force, driven by a potent mix of passion and anger, ready to confront and dismantle societal ills through her uninhibited singing. The song is a powerful declaration of artistic freedom and social critique.
