தெய்வம் நீதானே

மனம் போகாதே
You are the divine god yourself
You are the mother yourself
Oh elder brother, pushing you away
My mind will never go
தெய்வம் நீதானே
தாயும் நீ தானே
அண்ணனே உனதன்புமே
கரை காணாதே
You are the divine god yourself
You are the mother yourself
Oh elder brother, your love
Knows no shores or bounds
உறவே ஆடும் ஊஞ்சல் கயிறோ
வானம் வரையில் நீளுமே
உயிரே போடும் கோலம் இதிலே
வாழ்வின் வசந்தம் கூடுமே
The rope of the swing where relationship sways
Extends all the way to the sky
In this decorative design drawn by life itself
The spring season of life will gather
ஒளிரும் உன் கண்ணிலே
பெருகும் ஆனந்தமே
உலகம் ஓய்ந்தாலுமே
தொடரும் நம் சொந்தமே
In your shining eyes
Joy overflows
Even if the world comes to a standstill
Our bond of kinship will endure

Oh elder brother, pushing you away
My mind will never go
வெயிலோ மழையோ வருமுன்
குடையாகிடும் உறவு இது
தவமே புரிய வரம் தான்
அண்ணன் என்று ஆனதே
Before heat or rain arrives
This relationship becomes a sheltering umbrella
It is a boon granted without performing penance
That you became my elder brother
குறையே சொல்லாத உன் அன்பாலே
துளியும் கண்ணீரை பார்த்ததில்லை
விலையே இல்லாத உன் முன்னாலே
விறகும் ஆகாதோ பூங்கிளை
Because of your flawless, blameless love
Even a single drop of tear
Has never been seen
In front of your priceless bond
Even a flowering branch feels like plain firewood
In comparison
அருகில் இருந்தாலும் அழுது வழிந்தாலும்
நினைவுனை நாளும் பேசுமே
நரைகள் விழுந்தாலும் நரம்பு தளர்ந்தாலும்
விலக விரும்பாது பாசமே
Whether close by
Or even if tears flow
Memories will speak of you every day
Even if grey hair appears
Even if nerves grow weak with age
Affection will never desire to part
