Kaanakarunguyilae Kaadhal or paavamadi
Kaanakarunguyilae Kaadhal or paavamadi
Kaadhal kanakkinilae Kanneer thaan laabamadi
Aasai… undaanathu Adhil veedu…rendaanathu
Adi kaanakarunguyilae Kaadhal or paavamadi
Boomiyil naan pirantha Jaathagam maaruthu
En vidhi maedai katti Naadagam aaduthu
Vanjiyae un manam Ennidam yaen vanthathu
Vanthathaal iththanai Thunbamum vaainthathu
Vaedhanai sodhanai Yaaridam naan solvathu
En manam indru thaan Ambalam aanathu
Neeyum indha thukkathilae Nillu maru pakkathilae
Naeram oru kaalam Vara koodum andru onnaagalam

Kaadhal kanakkinilae Kanneer thaan laabamadi
Aasai… undaanathu Adhil veedu…rendaanathu
Kangalil neer vazhinthu Kannathil oduthu

Aasai… undaanathu Adhil veedu…rendaanathu
Adi kaanakarunguyilae Kaadhal or paavamadi
Kaadhal kanakkinilae Kanneer thaan laabamadi
Song Meaning & Analysis

The imagery of a home splitting due to desire underscores the tragic consequences of their affection.
