Did I fall? Did I get lost?

Did I spill over before I was even full?

I pick imaginary flowers without plucking them,

And leave them with you without a word.

Like a turtle with no legs,

Time crawls along...

When I feel your absence here,

I realize a single truth all by myself.

What is happening within me,

Is it there in your heart too?

My heart races just wondering.

Will you call me? Will you call me?

Will you call, even for a second?

I am being so stubborn...

Unable to bear it any longer, will you call me?

Will you call me? Will you call me?

I lie around without studying,

Fretting over the ticking clock...

Before dawn breaks, will you call me?

What I ought to say,

I rehearsed out loud.

What you ought to reply,

I practiced saying that too.

I ran through rehearsals

For every single part of it...

[Whistling]

I even planned out

Exactly where you should smile.

If this state continues...

What will become of me?

If you call before I forget myself...

I will survive.

Will you call me? Will you call me?

Will you call my phone?

I am jumping up and down restlessly...

Just to hear your voice, will you call me?

Will you call me? Will you call me?

I stay awake at midnight,

Tearing sheets off the calendar...

Just to see you, will you call me?

Hey, like a snack half-eaten

And left covered aside,

Like a song that brushed past my ears

And faded away,

Like a magical fragrance

That wafted past my nose,

Whenever you hang up the phone,

A deep longing blankets my heart.

Shrinking and expanding,

It turns into an entire world.

My heart goes through something entirely new here.

Will you call me? Will you call me?

Will you call without fail?

Even if you dial by mistake...

That is more than enough, will you call me?

Will you call me? Will you call me?

Ooh ooh ooh ooh...

Will you call me? Will you call me?

Even if all words melt away,

If only our silence speaks,

That is enough... will you call me?

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

'Azhaippaaya' from Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Yeppadi captures the agonizing, restless anticipation of a young lover waiting for a phone call from their partner following a rift or separation. The lyrics meticulously convey how everyday routines fall apart—neglecting studies, obsessively checking the clock, waking in the middle of the night, and rehearsing imaginary telephone conversations down to the exact moment the partner might laugh. Madhan Karky's writing cleverly pairs urban youth culture with deep emotional longing, presenting the mobile phone call as a crucial lifeline for emotional survival and reconciliation.

Repetition of the refrain 'Azhaippaaya' highlights the desperate plea and obsessive waiting.
