It wells up deep within
A father's love
Like a root hidden from sight outside...

உன் போல தந்தை கிடைப்பது உண்டோ
That my life would be soaked
In such grand love
When I was born back then
Did I ever imagine?
For all the souls coming to this earth
Does everyone get a father like you?

என் நினைவினில் நிரம்புவாய்
பெண் : நீ உறக்கத்திலும்
என் பெயரினில் எழும்புவாய்
Sleeplessly
You fill up my thoughts
Female: Even while fast asleep
You awaken at the sound of my name
தோள்கள் உண்டு கண்மூடு
தொட்டில் என்றே கொண்டாடு
எந்நாளும் நீ வேண்டும் என்னோடு
கண்ணே கண்ணே
எந்தன் பெண்ணே பெண்ணே
இறப்பினும் பிறப்பேன் உன் பிள்ளையாய்
Here are my shoulders, close your eyes
Celebrate them as your cradle
I need you by my side forever
My precious darling, my dear daughter
Even if I die, I wish to be born as your child

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This poignant track encapsulates the deep, eternal bond between a father and his daughter. The song portrays a daughter as a divine miracle and a living poem granted by God, highlighting how a father's deep affection often remains unseen on the outside, much like a root beneath the soil or moisture within a rock. In turn, the daughter expresses profound gratitude for her father's selfless, protective nature, asking if she could be born as his child in every lifetime.
