கவிதை கொட்டுது
கனவு முட்டுது
கதவு திறக்குது
தடையில்லை வா
Nana Naanana…aa….
Poetry is pouring out
Dreams are knocking
Doors are opening
There are no obstacles, come!
மழையும் நிக்கல
மொழியும் திக்கல
மனசு வெளுக்குது
பறந்திட வா
The rain hasn't stopped
The words aren't stuttering
The mind is brightening up
Come, let us fly!
கற்பனை குதிரைக்கு பேர் என்ன
கண்டதை கேட்டதை சேமிக்க
சில்லறை கவலையிங்கே ஏனிங்கே
சிந்தனை போக்க நீ மாத்திக்க
What is the name of this horse of imagination?
To gather and save all that was seen and heard
Why worry about small, petty troubles here?
Change the direction of your thoughts
ஹே இது ஒரு இது ஒரு தனி உலகம்
நாம் விழுவதும் எழுவதும் தனி சகஜம்
ஹ தினம் தினம் பிறந்திடும் ஒரு சரணம்
இனி தொடர்ந்திடும் நம்முடைய பாட்டும்
Hey, this is a world of its own
To cherish both our falling and our rising
A new verse is born every single day
Our song will continue from now on
உன் நடையினில் தெரியுது புது நடனம்
உன் மொழியினில் எதிரியின் அணை உடையும்
பொன் சிரிப்பினில் கடந்திடும் மொழி வருடம்
அஹ் இன்னும் கொஞ்சம் கூட்டிச் செல்லவா...ஆ....
A new dance form is visible in your stride
The enemy's dam breaks in your words
With a golden smile, the year of language passes
Ah, shall I take you along a little further?
ஆகாயம் தத்தி தத்தி தாவிடும் மேகம்
தானாக கூடி நின்று பூவாகும்
நேற்றோடு விட்டு தள்ளு போனது சோகம்
ஆத்தோர காத்து வந்து தாலாட்டும்
The clouds hopping and leaping across the sky
Will gather together on their own and turn into flowers
Leave yesterday's sadness behind, it is gone
The breeze by the riverbank comes and sings a lullaby
கொண்டாட்டம் சந்தோசம்
சங்கீதம் கும்மாளம்
நம் பாட்டுக்கு முடிவில்லை
குழு :
நம் பாட்டுக்கு முடிவில்லை
Celebration and happiness
Music and joyful ecstasy
There is no end to our song
Chorus: There is no end to our song
ஹே இது ஒரு இது ஒரு தனி உலகம்
நாம் விழுவதும் எழுவதும் தனி சகஜம்
ஹ தினம் தினம் பிறந்திடும் ஒரு சரணம்
இனி தொடர்ந்திடும் நம்முடைய பாட்டும்
Hey, this is a world of its own
To cherish both our falling and our rising
A new verse is born every single day
Our song will continue from now on
Nana Naanana…aa….
