Across the vast expanse of clouds,
Your name drizzles down like raindrops, my girl.
As the light of love radiates and shines,
This little screen becomes my whole world, my girl.
Even though you stand right before my eyes,
I cannot reach out to touch you;
I cannot cross the barrier of this computer screen.
Flowing through the internet,
Like a shower of rain,
Everywhere I look, there is your video.
Like the glow of a light beam,
Like the gentle whisper of leaves,
Speak to me through my earphones, my love.
Across the vast expanse of clouds,
Your name drizzles down like raindrops, my boy.
Male: Haa... aa...
As the light of love radiates and shines,
This little screen becomes my whole world, my girl.
All of my daily office work,
Why does it feel so sweet now?
Across the keys of my keyboard,
Are flowers blooming?
An electronic wall stands before us,
With you over there and me right here.
Even if we count every single
Sparkling star in the night sky,
Our countless kisses
Will never run out.
Oh...
Across the vast expanse of clouds,
Your name drizzles down like raindrops, my boy... ah.
Male: As the light of love radiates and shines,
This little screen becomes my whole world, my girl.
.............
Though the distance is vast,
The moonlight we share is real;
Though it is just over the phone,
The voice that reaches me is a blessing.
"Will you accept me or will you not?"
All of yesterday went by in fear.
Now that you have accepted me,
I am flying high beyond the skies!
Even hell would be pure joy,
As long as I get to live with you... oh!
Across the vast expanse of clouds,
Your name drizzles down like raindrops, my boy.
Male: Yeah... As the light of love radiates and shines,
This little screen becomes my whole world, my girl.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This song from the cyber-thriller movie 'WWW' captures the essence of modern long-distance romance in the digital age, particularly through virtual video calls during lockdowns. Written by lyricist Madhan Karky, the song beautifully blends technical digital concepts—such as cloud computing, keyboards, video streams, and screens—with traditional poetic romantic expressions. Despite being physically separated by digital screens and barriers ('Minsuvarondru nam munnae'), the lovers express that their emotional connection, virtual kisses, and audio conversations make the digital world feel intimate, sweet, and endlessly beautiful.

Poetic devices

Metaphor

Kurundhirai en ulagam ena maaruthadi

The line 'Kurundhirai en ulagam ena maaruthadi' metaphorically compares the small computer screen to the speaker's entire world.

Simile

Undhan peyarai thuligalena thooruthadi

The word 'thuligalena' (like water drops) compares the repetition of the lover's name across the cloud network to falling rain drops.

Edhukai (Second Letter Assonance)

Alaiyin ozhiyaai / Ilaiyin mozhiyaai

The second letters 'lai' in 'Alaiyin' and 'Ilaiyin' match, creating classical Tamil poetic harmony.

Neologism / Modern Tech Imagery

Maehaveli yaavum yaavum

Lyricist Madhan Karky coin/uses pure Tamil technical terms like 'Maehaveli' (Cloud space), 'Visaippalagai' (Keyboard), 'Kanini thirai' (Computer screen), and 'Kaanoli' (Video/Visual feed).
