Similar in Malayalam. Lots of romantic songs translated literally would have "my liver" (കരൾ, karal), instead of "my heart" for example.

  And it makes no sense to me. Back in the day when I used to have crushes on others, my heart used to feel funny (beat faster etc), but liver? Nope, nothing. ഇതുവരെ മനസ്സിലായിട്ടില്ല why liver is considered romantic. (Translated as: haven't yet understood why liver is considered romantic )

    Brain and other underrated endocrine organs play the heart like a drum.
