Tiny little dreams,
tiny little mischiefs,
this is a home made of all these together.
Little bursts of laughter,
little playful fights,
this is the place where they turn into sweet music.
To live in this joint family,
even heaven would yearn.
This is Vedanthangal (bird sanctuary) right inside a home!
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
Tiny little dreams,
tiny little mischiefs,
this is a home made of all these together.
Little bursts of laughter,
little playful fights,
this is the place where they turn into sweet music.
A veranda where squirrels come to play,
love is the Thevaram (sacred hymn) that we sing.
A veranda where squirrels come to play,
love is the Thevaram (sacred hymn) that we sing.
Borrowing a little light from the moon in the sky,
an unceasing lamp burns in our home's alcove.
This is enough, this is enough,
what else do we need?
Every day spent living here turns into a festive celebration!
Tiny little dreams,
tiny little mischiefs,
this is a home made of all these together.
Little bursts of laughter,
little playful fights,
this is the place where they turn into sweet music.
In the flower garden planted by our smiles,
the flowering plants stretch their hands to borrow some!
In the flower garden planted by our smiles,
the flowering plants stretch their hands to borrow some!
If anyone asks where God's address is,
we will tell them to come see the loving family here.
We do not need gold, we do not need riches,
these bonds of affection are enough.
The life that we live
on this earth becomes truly meaningful.
Tiny little dreams,
tiny little mischiefs,
this is a home made of all these together.
Little bursts of laughter,
little playful fights,
this is the place where they turn into sweet music.
To live in this joint family,
even heaven would yearn.
This is Vedanthangal (bird sanctuary) right inside a home!
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
This is true happiness...
This is pure joy...
