மொழியில்லை மொழியாய்
உன் பேர் சொல்லாமல்
விழியில்லை விழியாய்
உன் முகம் பார்க்காமல்
As a silent language within language,
Without pronouncing your name,
As eyes gazing within eyes,
Without looking at your face,
உயிரினில் உனையே
நான் புதைத்தே நின்றேன்
புரிந்திடும் முன்னே
உனை பிரிந்தேன் அன்பே...ஏ.....
Deep within my soul, you,
I buried today.
Before understanding dawned,
I parted from you, my love.
தினமும் கனவில்
உனை தொலைவில் காண்கிறேன்
அதனால் இரவை
நான் நீள கேட்கிறேன்
Every day in my dreams,
I see you far away in the distance.
Because of that, for the night,
I ask to stretch longer.
எழுத்து பிழையால்
என் கவிதை ஆனதே
எனக்கே எதிரி
என் இதயம் ஆனதே
Like a spelling mistake,
My poem became ruined.
An enemy to myself,
My own heart has become.
மறப்பதில்லை நெஞ்சே நெஞ்சே
ஓ நெஞ்சே நெஞ்சே
ஓ நெஞ்சில் இன்னும் நீயடி
The heart does not forget, oh heart,
Oh heart, my heart,
Oh, you are still in my heart, girl.
மறப்பதில்லை நெஞ்சே நெஞ்சே
ஓ நெஞ்சே நெஞ்சே
ஓ நெஞ்சில் இன்னும் நீயடி
The heart does not forget, oh heart,
Oh heart, my heart,
Oh, you are still in my heart, girl.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song expresses profound emotional pain, regret, and persistent longing following a painful separation. The protagonist reflects on suppressing their true feelings and burying the memory of their beloved deep within their soul before they could truly understand each other. Solace is found only in dreams where the loved one appears from afar, leading the protagonist to pray for nights that never end. The lyricist uses poignant poetic imagery, comparing a ruined relationship to a poem rendered meaningless by a simple spelling mistake. The protagonist's own heart becomes their greatest enemy, refusing to let go of the love that remains etched within.
