Lyrics & meaning
Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This song from 'Bhaskar Oru Rascal' depicts a mature, second-chance romance between single parents. The lyrics express amazement at how love can rekindle in their hearts when they thought their youth and romantic days were long behind them. They wonder if this unexpected affection is real or just a dream brought to life by their children bridging the gap between them.
