அதி காலை பூத்த
பெண் கதிரும் நீதான்
என் வாழ்க்கை விதியின்
முதல் வரியும் நீதான்
You are the one who bloomed in the early morning
You are the gentle sunbeam of a woman
Of my life's destiny
You are the very first line
என் நெஞ்சம் கேட்கும்
சிறு இசையும் நீதான்
நான் பேசும் மொழியின்
இலக்கணமும் நீதான்
That my heart listens to
You are that subtle music
Of the language I speak
You are the grammar itself
என் மனதெலாம் மழையாகினாய்
என் உயிருக்குள் உரமாகினாய்
என் வாழ்கை நீயாகினாய்
நான் நீயாகி நாம் ஆகினாய்
You became rain across my whole mind
You became nourishment within my soul
You became my entire life
I became you, and together we became 'us'
யா ஹே யா ஹே
என் தாரகையே
யா ஹே யா ஹே
என் தேவதையே
தேவதையே
Yaa hey yaa hey
Oh my star
Yaa hey yaa hey
Oh my angel
Oh angel
யா ஹே யா ஹே
நீ வேறில்லையே
யா ஹே யா ஹே
நாம் பிழை இல்லையே
Yaa hey yaa hey
You are not different or separate
Yaa hey yaa hey
We are not a mistake
காற்றின் மொழிகளும்
கவிதை நடைகளும்
உன்னால் உணர்வது ஏனோ
மார்க்கின் உரைகளும்
மாறன் விழியினில்
கொள்கை கொள்வது ஏனோ
The languages of the wind
And the styles of poetry
Why do I feel them because of you?
Even the speeches of Karl Marx
In Cupid's (Maaran's) eyes
Why do they adopt this loving ideology?
வேப்பங் கனிகளில்
கொட்டும் தேன்களும்
தித்திப்பானது ஏனோ
தினமும் தினந்தினம்
சேர்ந்தே வாழத்தானோ
Even from neem fruits
The dripping honey
Why has it become so sweet?
Every single day, day after day
As if it is Valentine's Day
Is it for us to live together?
நீதானே நீதானே என்னுள்ளே
காணாத காதலை தந்த வனே
காதலி காதலில் கரைந்து நீ
என் கருவினில்
வந்தாய் வந்தாய் அன்பே
It is you, only you inside me
Oh the one who gave me an unseen love
Dissolving in the love of your beloved
Into my womb and soul
You have arrived, my love...
Adhi kaalai pootha
You are the one who bloomed in the early morning
Pen kathirum neethan
You are the gentle sunbeam of a woman
En vaazhkai vidhiyin
Of my life's destiny
Mudhal varium neethan
You are the very first line
En nenjam ketkum
That my heart listens to
Siru isaiyum neethan
You are that subtle music
Naan pesum mozhiyin
Of the language I speak
Ilakanamum neethan
You are the grammar itself
En manathelaam mazhaiyaaginaai
You became rain across my whole mind
En uyirukul uramaaginaai
You became nourishment within my soul
En vaazhkai neeyaaginaai
You became my entire life
Naan neeyaagi naam aaginaai
I became you, and together we became 'us'
Yaa hey yaa hey
Yaa hey yaa hey
En thaaragaiyae
Oh my star
Yaa hey yaa hey
Yaa hey yaa hey
En devathaiyae
Oh my angel
Devathaiyae
Oh angel

Yaa hey yaa hey
Nee verillaiyae
You are not different or separate
Yaa hey yaa hey
Yaa hey yaa hey
Naam pizhai illaiyae

Neethanae neethanae enullae
It is you, only you inside me
Kaanaadha kaadhalai thandha vanae
Oh the one who gave me an unseen love
Kaadhali kaadhalil karainthu nee
Dissolving in the love of your beloved
En karuvinnil
Into my womb and soul
Vandhaai vandhaai anbae……
You have arrived, my love...
Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This soulful romantic song expresses an intense and sacred bond between lovers. The lyrics portray the beloved as the essence of life—the first ray of morning sun, the music of the heart, the grammar of speech, and the writer of fate. Love transforms the world around them, making bitter neem fruit taste sweet like honey and turning even complex political ideologies into expressions of romance.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Metaphor (Uvamaani)
“Naan pesum mozhiyin Ilakanamum neethan”
Comparing the beloved directly to the grammar of speech and a morning sunbeam without using explicit comparative markers.
Iyaibu (End Rhyme)
“En manathelaam mazhaiyaaginaai / En uyirukul uramaaginaai / En vaazhkai neeyaaginaai”
The lines end with rhythmic, rhyming suffixes (-aaginaai) creating a lyrical flow.
Anaphora / Nedil Monai
“Naan neeyaagi naam aaginaai”
Repetition of initial soft phonetic sounds across words ('Naan', 'neeyaagi', 'naam') to emphasize complete union.
Contrast / Hyperbole
“Vepang kanigalil Kottum theangalum Thithipaanathu yeno”
Contrasting bitter neem fruit ('Vepang kanigalil') with dripping sweetness ('Thithipaanathu') to highlight the transformative power of love.
