It's ' azhagu.' It's an invocation to the gods of beauty, appreciating the magnificence of their handiwork. In Tamil, calling someone beautiful is not just a mere compliment. It's ' kadhal.' It's a feeling so deep that it overwhelms you. Because in Tamil, love is not just a word. Especially when it's in the form of music and poems.

There's something about this language that's absolutely divine.

When translated, the above lines mean: I asked for flowers, you gave me a gardenįor anyone who understands even a little bit of Tamil, the translation of the lyrics will never do justice to the original lyrics of the song, for that's the beauty of Tamil.
