இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
நதியில் தாளம் சேர்கிறதா
நொடியில் நாளும் பூக்கிறதா
அடடடடா அலை படகா
ஒரு உறவாய்
Is a rhythm joining the flowing river?
Are all moments blooming in a single second?
Oh my, like a boat riding the waves...
...as a new bond?
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
தயக்கம் இல்லாமல் நுழைந்தாய்
திரைகள் வீழ்கிறதா
சிலுவை சுமந்த பறவை
சிறகை விரிக்கிறதா
அழுகை முடிந்த இடத்தில்
இசையும் பிறக்கிறதா
உலகம் பிடிக்க தொடங்கியது
உதடும் சிரிக்க பழகியதா
நாள் முழுதும் நீயெனவே ஆகிறதா
You entered my life without any hesitation,
Are the curtains finally falling?
The bird that once bore a heavy cross...
...is it now spreading its wings to fly?
In the place where sorrow and tears ended,
Is sweet music being born?
Have you started liking this world again?
Have the lips learned to smile once more?
Does the entire day now become all about you?
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
பெண் குழு :
கிழக்கு வானில் சிரிக்கும் சூரியன்
உதிக்கும் நேரத்தில் தீ இவள்
கிழக்கு வானில் சிரிக்கும் சூரியன்
உதிக்கும் நேரத்தில் தீ இவள்
மின்னிடும் மையலை எடுத்து சூடிய பூ இவள்
இரவும் பகலும் இதயம் போரிடும் யார் இவள்
I was like a blank sheet of paper,
Is vibrant color being splashed across it?
On the tree that had forgotten the rain,
Are fresh flowers blooming?
Only after the emotional dams broke,
Is the heart softening and ripening?
Are the defensive walls crumbling to dust?
Is moisture gathering in the clouds?
As you arrive, is the long dream dissolving?
வெள்ளை தாழெனவே
வண்ணம் தெளிகிறதா
மழையே மறந்த மரத்தில்
மலர்கள் மலர்கிறதா
அணைகள் உடைந்த பிறகே
இதயம் கனிகிறதா
மதில்கள் தூளாய் போகிறதா
முகிலில் ஈரம் கோர்க்கிறதா
நீ வரவே நீல் கனவே கலைகிறதா
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
Won't the heart accept her?
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா
இவளை நெஞ்சம் ஏற்காதா
Is a rhythm joining the flowing river?
Are all moments blooming in a single second?
Oh my, like a boat riding the waves...
...as a new bond?
நதியில் தாளம் சேர்கிறதா
நொடியில் நாளும் பூக்கிறதா
அடடடடா அலை படகா
ஒரு உறவாய்
Won't the heart listen when spoken to?
இதயம் சொன்னால் கேட்காதா

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Idhayam Sonnaal Ketkaadha from the 2024 film Once More is a tender romantic track exploring emotional healing, vulnerability, and the gentle arrival of new love. The song portrays a protagonist who has endured past burdens and sorrow, slowly allowing their heart to open up to a transformative relationship. Through rich poetic imagery, the lyricist conveys how love brings color back to a blank canvas and life back to a dried-up soul. The narrator marvels at how naturally the beloved enters their world, tearing down long-held emotional barriers. The song captures the beautiful transition where sorrow turns into music, smiles replace tears, and every passing moment begins to revolve around the presence of the special person.
