It doesn't really have a true meaning. In the anime and manga series Naruto, it is used as a suffix for the names of the hidden villages, i.e. Konohagakure. Most likely, it was taken from "kakusa reta" which means "hidden." The "ku" and "re" were probably combined to create "kure." Added with "ga," it would translate to "the hidden." So, therefore, when added as a suffix to Konoha, it would become "the hidden leaf village."
