Unodhu Naan Iruntha




One of the Tamil poems that beautifully describes moments of a man and women after intercourse. Its from the Tamil movie Iruvar.Good music, lyrics and screen play.
You can view the clip
The lyrics and the translation are below. I tried my best to do the translation
Unnoadu naan irundha ovvoru maNi thuLiyum  
Each moment we spent together

MaraNa padukkaiyilum maRakkaadhu kaNmaNiyae
Even on my death bed, i would not cease to forget

ThonnooRu nimidangaL thottaNaitha kaalam dhaan
90 minutes of sweet caress

EnnooRu aaNdugaLaai idhayathil kalangudhadi
Lingers in my heart as an 800 year old memory

Paarvaiyilae sila nimidam
Moments in gaze

Bayathoadu sila nimidam
Moments in fear

Katti aNaithapadi kaNNeeril sila nimidam
Moments of embrace, with a drop tear

IlakkaNamae paaraamal
Without reservation

Ella idangaLilum muththangaL vidhaitha moahathil sila nimidam
Sowing seeds of love with kisses

Unnoadu naan irundha ovvoru maNi thuLiyum 
Each moment we spent together 

MaraNa padukkaiyilum maRakkaadhu kaNmaNiyae
Even on my death bed, i would not cease to forget

Edhu jnayam edhu paavam iruvarukkum thoandravillai
Was it right and wrong, we didn't take notice

Adu irava adhu pagala adhai patri aRiyavillai
Was day or night, we didn't take notice

Yaar thodanga? yaar mudikka? oru vazhiyum thoandravillai
Who is to start and who is to end? we didn't know

Iruvarumae thodangivittoam idhu varaikkum kaeLvi illai
Both journeyed, no questions till now

Acham kaLaindhaen aasaiyinai nee aNaithaay
I shed my fear, you embraced me with love

Aadai kaLaindhaen vetkathai nee aNaithaay
I shed my cloth, you embraced me with shyness

KaNda thirukoalam kanavaaga maRaindhaal
Even when this sweet moment, starts fading as a dream

Kadaisiyil azhudha kaNNeer kaiyil innum ottudhadi
But, your tear drop remind me of the moments

Unnoadu naan irundha ovvoru maNi thuLiyum 
Each moment we spent together 

MaraNa padukkaiyilum maRakkaadhu kaNmaNiyae
Even on my death bed, i would not cease to forget
