ஹம்மிங் :
ஹா..ஆஆ...ஆஆஆ...
A green grass meadow has spread out,
Parijatha flowers have fallen down,
Let us walk with a smile,
Hold my hand and come, my son.
பச்சை புல் வெளி விரிஞ்சிருக்கு
பாரி ஜாதம் எறஞ்சிருக்கு
புன்னகையோட போவோம் கையா
புடிச்சு வாடா என் மகனே
In the center of my ribcage,
I will cherish and protect you daily,
Without separating even for a minute,
I will follow as your shadow, my son.
நெஞ்சாங்கூட்டு நடுவாளா
நெதமும் உன்ன காத்திருப்பேன்
நிமிஷம் கூட பிரியாமா
உன் நிழலா வருவேன் என் மகனே
Your dignity and standing should remain unshaken, my dear,
You must live a long life, my dear,
I have set up the sky's moon,
To keep you company, my son.
நெல குழையா இருக்கணும்டா
நெடுங்காலம் நீ வாழனும்டா
நிலவா உனக்கு துணையா வானத்தில்
நிறுத்தி வெச்சேன் என் மகனே
When hunger strikes you, your body,
Will suffer pain it cannot bear,
I have instructed all the trees,
To satisfy your hunger, my son.
ஹம்மிங் :
ஹா..ஆஆ...ஆஆஆ...
If you stay awake without sleep,
And your eyes turn red like a ball of fire,
To sing a lullaby to you,
I lined up the clouds in the sky, my son.
பசி வந்தாளே உன் உடம்பு
பாட படும் வலி தாங்காது
மரங்களுக்கு எல்லாம் சொல்லி வெச்சேன்
உன் பசி ஆத்தும் என் மகனே
They only have the face of a human,
Many on this earth are beasts,
This is a lesson no school teaches,
Learn it by living, my son.
நித்திரை இல்லமா நீ முழிச்சு
நெருப்பு பந்தா கண் சிவந்த
வானத்து மேகத தாழத்து பாட
வரிசையில் நிறுத்தினேன் என் மகனே
The mouth that scolds you will wither away,
The hand that strikes you will decay,
The patient one shall rule the earth,
Do not flare up in anger, my son.
மனிஷன் முகம்தான் இருக்குமாடா
மண்ணுல பலர் பேர் மிருகமாடா
இது பள்ளி கூடம் சொல்லாத பாடம்
வாழ்ந்து கத்துக்கோ என் மகனே
Stones and thorns cover your path,
Your journey will be rough and rugged,
Without stumbling and falling down,
Be careful, my son.
திட்டுன வாய் தீஞ்சிறுமே
உன்ன அடிக்கிற கையி அழுகிருமே
பொறுத்தவன் பூமி ஆள்வான்
நீயும் பொங்கிட வேணாம் என் மகனே
Do not think you are a solitary person,
My heart will follow behind you,
All eight directions and the stars,
Will shower blessings upon you, my son.
கல்லும் முள்ளும் உன் பாதை
கரடு முரடா உன் பயணம்
கால்கள் தடுக்கி கீழ விழாம
கவனம் வேணும் என் மகனே
Enmity will be ahead and behind you,
Ups and downs will fill your path,
Building a nest amidst the thorns,
Show them how to thrive, my son.
தனி ஆளுன்னு எண்ணாத
என் மனசு வரும் உன் பின்னால
எட்டு திசையும் நட்சத்திரங்களும்
உன்ன வாழ்த்தும் என் மகனே
Even if all eight directions oppose you,
Even if thunder crashes down on you,
No harm or evil will ever touch you,
This is a mother's blessing, my son.
முன்னும் பின்னும் பகை இருக்கும்
மேடும் பள்ளமும் நெறஞ்சிருக்கும்
முள்ளுக்கு நடுவுல கூட கட்டி நீ
வாழ்ந்து காட்டுடா என் மகனே
The vast sky will hold an umbrella for you,
All the gods will stand as your support,
No evil spirits or darkness will touch you,
This is a mother's blessing, my son.
எட்டு திசை உன்ன எதிர்த்தாலும்
இடியே மேல விழுந்தாலும்
எந்த கெடுத்தாலும் நெருங்காது
இது அம்மா ஆசை என் மகனே
Nothing happens through mere magic mantras,
Strive relentlessly like a machine,
Support will always arrive for you,
This is a mother's blessing, my son.
Mother's blessing, my son.
ஆகயம் உனக்கு குடை பிடிக்கும்
அத்தனை சாமி துணை இருக்கும்
காத்து கருப்பு தீண்டாது
இது அம்மா ஆசை என் மகனே
மந்திரத்தில் எதும் நடக்காது
எந்திரமா நீ போராடு
ஆதாரவாக எப்போது வரும்
இது அம்மா ஆசை என் மகனே
அம்மா ஆசை என் மகனே

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This emotional maternal song expresses the boundless love, protective instincts, and life guidance of a mother for her son. She assures him that nature itself—the moon, clouds, trees, and sky—is aligned to comfort and guard him through life's trials. She prepares him for the harsh realities of the world, warning that people can be cruel and path full of obstacles, yet urging him to maintain patience, resilience, and hard work rather than anger or quick fixes.
