Meaning
Innum is an adverb meaning 'yet' or 'still'. It indicates a continuation of a state or action, or something that has not happened up to the present moment. In dance lyrics, it often appears in contexts of longing, impatience, or a continued plea, such as a devotee asking a deity why they 'yet' delay their grace, or a nayika wondering why her beloved 'still' hasn't arrived.
