Will God remain asleep?
In a mind where light spreads,
Truth itself will be attained.
தடயங்களை பதித்திடவே
பறவைகளாய் என்னும்
தனை மறந்து கொடை அழித்தல்

To leave footprints,
Does it count the birds?
If one forgets oneself and bestows charity,
Generations to come will praise it.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This soul-stirring composition emphasizes that true divinity resides in loving every living soul and seeing God within humble human beings rather than seeking the divine elsewhere. It champions unconditional charity, empathy, and selfless service, arguing that a heart willing to give creates an eternal legacy that future generations will honor. Metaphorically describing mercy as an ever-flowing river whose moisture never parches the earth, the song frames love as a supreme light that dispels dark selfishness and brings real truth to the human mind.
