Kai reghai tholanju povadhaIf the lines on my palm disappear,
Yaaru poruppaaWho takes responsibility for it?
Male
Manasula baaram aachuMy heart grew heavily burdened,
Una nenachuThinking of you continuously.
Idhayamum ooda villaMy heart refused to run anymore,
MaruthiruchuIt flatly denied to function.
Pollaadha boomi thaanThis world is truly cruel,
Illaadha saami thaanGod feels completely absent.
Sollaadha sogam ulla thaanUnspoken grief lies hidden within.

Poopola irukkum paadham thaanHer feet, soft like gentle flowers,
Enna suthumaeRevolve around my life.

Enna valartha poongodiA flowering vine that nourished me.
Ketta kanavu thaanadiIt is just a terrible bad dream, my dear,

Onnodu poren mannulaI am entering the soil along with you.
