கையேந்தி நிற்பான் கடவுளே
கருணைக்கு மட்டும் உலகிலே
கையேந்தி நிற்பான் கடவுளே
கருணைக்கு மட்டும் உலகிலே
God stands with hands outstretched,
Only for mercy in this world.
God stands with hands outstretched,
Only for mercy in this world.
மன்னிக்க இதயம் ஒன்று
தெய்வத்தின் சன்னிதி
பிறர் வாழ தோற்கும்போது ஒரு நிம்மதி
சென்ற காலம் போகுமா சில மாற்றம் மாறுமா
A heart that forgives is a divine sanctum,
When losing so others may live, there is peace.
Will the past time vanish? Will certain changes occur?
கையேந்தி நிற்பான் கடவுளே
கருணைக்கு மட்டும் உலகிலே
God stands with hands outstretched,
Only for mercy in this world.
சில நேரம் வாழ்வின் பயணம்
சுயமான ஞாபகம்
சில நேரம் வாழ்வின் சூழல் ஒரு போர்க்களம்
சில நேரம் மனிதன் மனதில்
மிருகங்கள் தோன்றிடும்
சில நேரம் அன்பிற்காக மனம் ஏங்கிடும்
Sometimes life's journey,
Is a sweet memory.
Sometimes life's circumstance is a battlefield.
Sometimes within a human mind,
Beasts will arise.
Sometimes the heart yearns deeply for love.
மனம் என்பது ஒரு கோவிலே
மனசாட்சி பேசினால்
சோகங்களும் சுகம் ஆகுமே
உறவொன்று கூடினால்
ஒரு முறை தானே இந்த பிறவியின் உறவு
கடல் மடிதானே ஓடும் நதிகளின் கனவு
The mind itself is a temple,
If only conscience speaks.
Even sorrows turn into joy,
When a relationship unites.
Relationships in this birth come but once,
The ocean's lap is the dream of running rivers.
கையேந்தி நிற்பான் கடவுளே
கருணைக்கு மட்டும் உலகிலே
God stands with hands outstretched,
Only for mercy in this world.
ஓ...ஓஹ்...எல்லோர்க்கும் வாழ்க்கை என்று
பிறப்போடு உள்ளது
யார் வாழ்க்கை யாரின் கையில் யார் சொல்வது
இடம் மாறும் பறவை தேடும்
தான் வாழ ஒர் இடம்
அலைபாயும் பறவை அமர ஆலயம் பூ மரம்
Life exists for everyone,
Starting right from birth.
Who can say whose life lies in whose hands?
A migratory bird searches,
For a place of its own to live.
For the restless bird to perch, a flowering tree is a sanctuary.
அவன் நல்லவன் இவன் தீயவன்
யார் சொல்ல கூடுமோ
விதி மாறலாம் விடை மாறலாம்
தரும் கைகள் மாறுமோ
அனுபவம்தானே இந்த வாழ்கையின் பாடம்
முடிவினில் மனமோ ஒரு அமைதியை தேடும்
This man is good, that man is evil,
Who is to judge?
Fate may change, answers may change,
Will the hands that give ever change?
Experience itself is the lesson of this life,
In the end, the mind seeks peace.
கையேந்தி நிற்பான் கடவுளே

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Kaiyenthi Nirpaan Kadavule' from Kozhipannai Chelladurai explores deep philosophical themes of human compassion, forgiveness, and destiny. It emphasizes that divinity resides not just in temples, but in a forgiving heart and a clean conscience. The lyrics depict life as an unpredictable journey full of sweet memories, battlefields, and internal human conflicts, reminding us that true peace comes from selflessness and compassion toward others. Through metaphors of rivers reaching the sea and birds seeking a sheltering tree, the song meditates on the search for belonging, peace, and ultimate purpose. It asserts that while fate and life circumstances constantly change, the act of giving, loving, and understanding remains timeless.
