En urava nee kedacha pothum
En usurae naan unakae tharuven
Adi potta kaatu mela
Oru puzhuthi kaatha pala
Un nenaippula naan parakkuran
Konjam paaramma
Mazhai vanavilla pola
Nee maranchi maranchi pora
Nee maranchathum
Naan tholiuren romba thoorama
Adi vaasa malli poothirukku
Vaadi rasathi
En vaasapadi kaathirukku
Aarathee yethi
En urava nee kedacha pothum
En usurae naan unakae tharuven
Hey sillu vandu pola
Nee siriche pesi pona
Nellu vandi moota pola
Kavunthu naanum kedakkuran…
Un mooku muzhi paathu
Naan odanju ponen nethu
Manthirichi aatta pola
Mayangi naanum kedakkuran
Kokki pottu en manasa
Kooru podura
Thooki pottu en vayasa….
Thooru varura
En ezhu jenma aasai ellam

Naan thedatha uravae
Enna thedi vantha varavae
Vaadatha un mugatha
Enni naanum vaazhuren
Ooyatha kanavae
Emna urasi pogum nelavae
Vaazhatha vaazhkaya naan

Adi vaasa malli poothirukku
Vaadi rasathi
En vaasapadi kaathirukku
Aarathee yethi
En urava nee kedacha pothum
En usurae naan unakae tharuven
If only you become mine, that is enough
I will give my very life to you
Across the open barren fields
like a swirling gust of dust
I drift away in thoughts of you
Look at me just a little, girl
Just like a rainbow in the rain
you keep appearing and disappearing
The moment you vanish
I am lost far, far away
The fragrant jasmine has bloomed
Come to me, my princess
My doorstep is waiting
with an aarathi (welcoming flame) lit
If only you become mine, that is enough
I will give my very life to you
Hey, just like a chirping cricket
you smiled, spoke, and walked by
Like a sack fallen from a paddy cart
I am lying knocked flat...
Looking at your face and sharp eyes
I fell completely apart yesterday
Like an animal under a spell
I lie here completely dazed
Hooking my heart
you cut it into pieces
Tossing my youth aside
you dredge deep into my soul
The wishes of all my seven births
have come together as this one blessing
Girl, who else will ever
cherish you every single day like I do?
The fragrant jasmine has bloomed
Come to me, my princess
My doorstep is waiting
with an aarathi (welcoming flame) lit
If only you become mine, that is enough
I will give my very life to you
A love I never went searching for
a blessing that came looking for me
Thinking of your unfading face
I keep living my days
An endless dream
O moon that gently brushes past me
A life I have never lived before
I yearn to experience it with you
Without a word, you come to me
and storm through my world
Effortlessly scooping me up
you try to take total hold of me
Stepping right into my mind
you spin around so delightfully
With that gaze of yours
you pierce me so pleasantly
The fragrant jasmine has bloomed
Come to me, my princess
My doorstep is waiting
with an aarathi (welcoming flame) lit
If only you become mine, that is enough
I will give my very life to you

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

En Urava from the 2023 movie Saandrithazh is a soulful romantic track expressing deep devotion, yearning, and surrender to love. The protagonist declares that having his beloved in his life is the ultimate fulfillment, and he is ready to offer his life for her. Through rustic imagery—such as dusty winds over dry lands, fallen paddy sacks, and blooming jasmine—he describes how utterly swept away and enchanted he feels by her presence. He sees her as a divine boon satisfying his longings across seven lifetimes. The lyrics highlight his eagerness to welcome her into his home and life, promising lifelong care and affection while expressing how her simple glance completely captivates his soul.

Poetic devices

Simile (Uvamai)

Oru puzhuthi kaatha pala / Mazhai vanavilla pola / Nellu vandi moota pola / Manthirichi aatta pola

Poetic device

The song uses rich rustic similes: comparing his wandering mind to a dust storm ('puzhuthi kaatha pola'), her fleeting presence to a rainbow ('vanavilla pola'), his helpless fallen state to an overturned grain sack ('moota pola'), and his love-struck trance to an enchanted goat ('aatta pola').

Alliteration & Monai / Edhugai (Tamil Rhyme)

Kokki pottu en manasa / Kooru podura

Poetic device

Employs initial consonant sound alliteration ('K' in Kokki and Kooru) along with rhythmic middle-syllable harmony typical of Tamil lyricism.

Metaphor (Uruvagaimai)

Naan thedatha uravae / Enna thedi vantha varavae

Poetic device

Metaphorically frames the beloved not merely as a person, but as an unsought blessing and divine gift ('varavae') destined across lifetimes.
