Translation of song Vaan varuvaan from Kaatru Veliyidai

Vaan Varuvaan


Vaan varuvaaan - loop

He will come....

( Vaan means full of life, although it is gender neutral here it means the boy )


Vaan...
Varuvaan Thoduvaan
Mazhaipol Vizhuvaan
Marmam arivaan
Ennul olivaan
Arugil nimirvaan
Tholaivil panivaan
Karvam kondaal
Kallaai uraivaan
Kallaai uraivaan.. Uraivaan
Kaadhal vandhaal
Kaniyaai Negizhvaan
Kaadhal vandhaal
Kaniyaai negizhvaan
En kalla kaamugane
Avandhan varuvaan


He..
Will come, touch
Will fall like the rain 
Knows the mystery
Will hide within me
Will raise on coming near
And submit when away
If attains arrogance
Will freeze like a stone
Will freeze like a stone... Will freeze
If love comes
Will become soft as a fruit
If love comes
Will become soft as a fruit
My dear secret lover!
Is only him, he will come


( I feel those starting lines carry another dimension to it, I leave it to your knowledge )

Vaan...
Varuvaan Thoduvaan
Mazhaipol Vizhuvaan
Marmam arivaan
Ennul olivaan
Arugil nimirvaan
Tholaivil panivaan
Karvam kondaal
Kallaai uraivaan
Kallaai uraivaan.. Uraivaan

He..
Will come, touch
Will fall like the rain 
Knows the mystery
Will hide within me
Will raise on coming near
And submit when away
If attains arrogance
Will freeze like a stone
Will freeze like a stone... Will freeze





Enodirunthaal Evalo ninaivaan
Avalodirunthaal enaye ninaivaan
Ennai thuravaan
En per maravaan
Ennai marandhaal
Thannuyir viduvaan
Kan kavilnthaal
Velipol virivaan
Kan thiranthaal
Kanathil karaivaan

He...
If with me, will think of some other girl
If with her, will think only of me
Won't leave me
Won't forget my name
If forgets me
Will leave his life
If my eyes gets closed
Will spread like space
If I open the eyes
Will disappear within seconds



Vaan...
Varuvaan Thoduvaan
Mazhaipol Vizhuvaan
Marmam arivaan
Ennul olivaan
Arugil nimirvaan
Tholaivil panivaan
Karvam kondaal
Kallaai uraivaan
Kallaai uraivaan.. Uraivaan
Kaadhal vandhaal
Kaniyaai Negizhvaan

Kaadhal vandhaal
Kaniyaai negizhvaan - loop
