The earth itself has turned into a heaven
The morning melody has become our daily life
One cradle, two parrots
In the grove of our life
பூலோகமே!
ஒரு சொர்க்கமாநாதே!
பூபாலமே!
தினம் வாழ்கையானதே!
One shared gaze from eight eyes
In our nest of love
All four directions
Have become us
Hoo ooo hoo
ஒரு தூளி ரெண்டு கிளிகள்
எங்கள் வாழ்கை தோப்பிலே!
The earth itself has turned into a heaven
The morning melody has become our daily life
Hoo ooo hoo
ஒரு பார்வை எட்டு விழிகள்
எங்கள் அன்பு கூட்டிலே!
நாங்கு திசையும்
நாங்கள் ஆகினோம்
ஹோ ஓ ஹோ ஓ
Even the burning sun became a lamp for us
And our home became a blissful east
Even the burning sun became a lamp for us
And our home became a blissful east
பூலோகமே!
ஒரு சொர்க்கமாநாதே!
பூபாலமே!
தினம் வாழ்கையானதே!
ஹோ ஓ ஹோ ஓ
Flowers wither, but does their fragrance ever wither?
The crescent moon wanes, but does true affection ever wane?
Standing on the roof tiles, we reach out to pluck the clouds
..............
Standing on the roof tiles, we reach out to pluck the clouds
Even if we cause a million mischievous acts
We only nurture deep friendship and care
We become the vibrant colors of that rainbow
Hoo ooo hoo
எரியும் சூரியனும் விளக்காச்சு
எங்களின் வீடு இன்ப கிழக்காச்சு
எரியும் சூரியனும் விளக்காச்சு
எங்களின் வீடு இன்ப கிழக்காச்சு
Even a simple postal letter became family to us
This house of our father has become so beautiful
The true essence and form of life became clear
And in it, mother and father came to exist
மலரும் வாடும்
வாசம் வாடிடுமா!
பிறையும் தேயும்
நேசம் தீந்திடுமா!
Waves may rest, but do those shores ever dissolve?
Rivers may dry, but do those vast oceans ever dry up?
Even the gentle wind comes here to ask for breath
Though the world praises, it still judges by physical form
We walk steadfast on the path shown by the Bhagavad Gita
Hoo ooo hoo
ஓட்டின் மேல் நின்று
மேகம் பறிக்கிறோம்
சேட்டை கொடி செய்தாலும்
சிநேகம் வளர்கிறோம்
அந்த வானவில்லின் வண்ணம் ஆகிறோம்…
ஹோ ஓ ஹோ ஓ
.................
அஞ்சல் காகிதமும் உறவாச்சு
அப்பா வீடு இது அழகாச்சு..
உயிரின் உருவமும் தெரிஞ்சாச்சு அது
அன்னை தந்தை என்று ஆயாச்சு
அலைகள் ஓயும் அந்த
கரைகள் கரையுமா
நதிகள் காயும் அந்த
கடல்கள் காயுமா
காற்றும் இங்கு வந்து
மூச்சு கேக்குது
போற்றும் ஊரு என்றாலும்
உருவம் பார்க்குது
கீதை சொன்ன
பாதை போகிறோம்…
ஹோ ஓ ஹோ ஓ
