வா வாஎன்று அழைக்குதே......
Like colorful dreams
This is the moment it transforms
In the sky of my mind, a new
Rainbow appears
கனவுகள் வண்ணங்களாய்
மாறிடும் நேரமிது
என் மன வானில் புது
வானவில் தோன்றுதே

Yesterday's fleeting moments
Have vanished into the wind...
Tomorrow is here calling us
Saying 'come, come'...
நேற்றைய நொடிகளும்
காற்றினில் போய் விட்டதே...
நாளை நம்மை இங்கு
வா வா என்றழைக்குதே
Like reaching a mother's lap
I have become a little child again
Worries inside my mind
Are no more, no more, no more
தாய் மடி சேர்ந்திடும்
சிறு பிள்ளை ஆனேனே நான்
கவலைகள் என் மனதில்
இனி இல்லை இல்லை இல்லையே
Though moments of life felt like
A chaotic battlefield
And all dreams seemed to have
Faded into silence...
போர்க்களம் போல்
வாழ்க்கையின் நொடிகளே
கனவுகள் எல்லாம்
மௌனமாய் போனதே
Time itself will
Become your loyal friend
As life's journey stretches ahead
There will be joy, joy, joy, joy alone...
காலம் உன்
நண்பனாய் மாறுமே
வாழ்வின் நீளம் போக
இன்பம் இன்பம் இன்பம் இன்பம்தானே

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song captures a feeling of absolute freedom, hope, and emotional liberation. The protagonist compares their heart to a soaring bird reaching for the sky, shedding past worries like leaves in the wind. Re-imagining oneself as a child resting safely in a mother's lap, the lyrics express a deep sense of peace where all anxieties dissolve. Even when life feels like a chaotic battlefield where dreams temporarily go silent, the singer assures that time eventually turns into a companion, bringing light, colorful rainbows, and boundless joy as life continues forward.
