கண்ணுக்குள்ள ஏய் பட்டாம்பூச்சி சிரிக்குது
நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள அது குட்டி ரெக்க விரிக்குது
கண்ணுக்குள்ள ஏய் பட்டாம்பூச்சி சிரிக்குது
நெஞ்சுக்குள்ள அது குட்டி ரெக்க விரிக்குது
ஒஹோஒ......ஓஒ.....ஓஒ
A butterfly is smiling inside my eyes,
It is spreading its little wings inside my heart.

It is spreading its little wings inside my heart.

காணும் யாவிலும் இன்பம்
கரைந்தே போகுது நெஞ்சம்
என் உள்ளங்கையிலே
என் புன்னகைகளா
There is joy in everything I see,
My heart is melting away,
In the palm of my hand,
Are these my own smiles?...
கேட்க்கும் யாவிலும் தாளம்
அசையும் யாவிலும் நடனம்
என் சுவாச சாலையில்
ஒரு வாச திருவிழா
There is rhythm in everything I hear,
There is dance in everything that moves,
In the pathway of my breath,
There is a festival of fragrance.
காதோடு கதை பேசும் காற்று
காலோடு உரையாடும் தூசு
யாரின் பேச்சை நான் கேட்க போகிறேன்
நில் என்று அழைக்கின்ற பூக்கள்
வா என்று இழுக்கின்ற தோழன்
யாரின் பேச்சைத்தான் நான் கேட்பதோ.....
The wind whispers stories into my ears,
The dust converses with my feet,
Whose words am I going to listen to?...
The flowers calling out to stop,
The friend pulling me to come,
Whose words will I listen to?...
{தித்தின தத்தின
தித்தின தத்தின

புதிய சிறகு முளைக்குது} (2)

காற்பதனிக்குள்ளே
ஒரு பூவை போலே வாழ்ந்தேன்
மிச்சம் மீதி வாழ
நான் வீதி வந்தேனே
In the pathway of my breath,
There is a festival of fragrance.
The wind whispers stories into my ears,
The dust converses with my feet,
வத்தி பெட்டிக்குள்ளே
ஒரு வானம் இங்கு கண்டேன்
தோசை கல்லின் மேலே
நான் பாசம் கண்டேனே
Whose words am I going to listen to?...
The flowers calling out to stop,
The friend pulling me to come,
Whose words will I listen to?...

Inside an eggshell,
I lived like a flower,
To live out the remainder of life,
I came out onto the streets.
வேறேதும் என் நெஞ்சிக்கு வேண்டாமடா
கை கோர்த்து இச்சிற்றுண்டம் காண்போமடா
வால்மீனை நான் வான் விட்டு வீழ்ந்தேனடா
ஓர் நாளில் நான் என் ஆயுள் வாழ்ந்தேனே.....உன்னாலடா
Inside a matchbox,
I saw a sky here,
Upon a dosa pan,
I witnessed affection.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song portrays a joyous, childlike sense of wonder and liberation experienced upon stepping out into the vast world. The protagonist feels an overwhelming rush of happiness—metaphorically described as butterflies fluttering in her eyes and heart—as she breaks out of her sheltered existence (symbolized by living inside an eggshell or a matchbox) into the vibrant streets of life. Everything around her, from the whispering wind to the dust beneath her feet, seems to hold music, dance, and affection.
