| Maru varthai pesaadhae | Speak no second word |
| Madimeedhu nee thoongidu | Just sleep on my lap |
| Imai pola naan kaakha | As I protect you like an eyelid |
| Kanavai nee maridu | Transform into a dream |
| Male | |
| Mayil thogai pollae | Like a peacock feather |
| Viral unnai varudum | My fingers will stroke you gently |
| Manappaadamai | By heart |
| Uraiyadal nigazhum | Our conversation will flow |
| Male | |
| Vizhi neerum veen aaga | So that tears do not go to waste |
| Imaithanda koodathena | Thinking they shouldn't cross the eyelashes |
| Thuliyaaga naan serththen | I collected them drop by drop |
| Kadalaaga kannaanadhae | Now it has turned into an ocean in my eyes |
| Male | |
| Maranthaalum naan unnai | Even if I try to forget, there is no day |
| Ninaikaadha naal illaiyae | Where I do not think of you |
| Pirinthalum en anbu | Even if we are separated, my love |
| Orupodhum poi illaiyae | Will never ever be a lie |

| Male | |
| Manikaatum kadigaram | The watch that shows the time |
| Tharumvaadhai arindhom | We learned the torment it brings |
| Udaimaatrum idaivelai | The brief interlude of changing clothes |
| Adhan pinbae unarndhom | Only after that did we realize |

மறுவார்த்தை
பேசாதே மடிமீது நீ தூங்கிடு
இமை போல நான் காக்க
கனவாய் நீ மாறிடு
Speak no second word
Just sleep on my lap
As I protect you like an eyelid
Transform into a dream
மயில் தோகை
போலே விரல் உன்னை
வருடும் மனப்பாடமாய்
உரையாடல் நிகழும்
Like a peacock feather
My fingers will stroke you gently
By heart
Our conversation will flow
விழி நீரும் வீணாக
இமைத்தாண்ட கூடாதென
துளியாக நான் சேர்த்தேன்
கடலாக கண்ணானதே
So that tears do not go to waste
Thinking they shouldn't cross the eyelashes
I collected them drop by drop
Now it has turned into an ocean in my eyes
மறந்தாலும் நான்
உன்னை நினைக்காத
நாள் இல்லையே
பிரிந்தாலும் என் அன்பு
ஒருபோதும் பொய் இல்லையே
Even if I try to forget, there is no day
Where I do not think of you
Even if we are separated, my love
Will never ever be a lie
விடியாத
காலைகள் முடியாத
மாலைகளில் வடியாத
வேர்வை துளிகள்
பிரியாத போர்வை நொடிகள்
Mornings that do not dawn
In evenings that never end
Sweat drops that do not dry
Moments wrapped in an inseparable blanket
மணி காட்டும்
கடிகாரம் தரும் வாடை
அறிந்தோம் உடைமாற்றும்
இடைவேளை அதன்
பின்பே உணர்ந்தோம்
The watch that shows the time
We learned the torment it brings
The brief interlude of changing clothes
Only after that did we realize
மறவாதே மனம்
மடிந்தாலும் வரும்
முதல் நீ முடிவும் நீ
அலர் நீ அகிலம் நீ
Do not forget, oh heart
It will persist even after death
You are the beginning
You are the end
You are the blossom
You are the universe
தொலைதூரம்
சென்றாலும் தொடு வானம்
என்றாலும் நீ விழியோரம்
தானே மறைந்தாய்
உயிரோடு முன்பே கலந்தாய்
Even if you travel far away
Even if you go as far as the horizon
You disappeared only at the edge of my eyes
You had already merged into my life
இதழ் எனும்
மலர் கொண்டு
கடிதங்கள் வரைந்தாய்
பதில் நானும் தரும் முன்பே
கனவாகி கலைந்தாய்
Using the flower called lips
You wrote letters
Before I could give a reply
You dissolved like a dream
பிடிவாதம் பிடி
சினம் தீரும் அடி
இழந்தோம் எழில்கோலம்
இனிமேல் மழைக்காலம்
Hold onto your stubbornness
Let your anger fade away, my love
We lost the beautiful season
From now on... it is the rainy season

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Maru Varthai Pesaadhae is a tender Tamil love ballad capturing deep intimacy, longing, and eternal affection between two lovers. The speaker asks their beloved to stay silent and rest peacefully on their lap, promising protective care likened to an eyelid guarding an eye. Through poetic imagery of gentle touches, endless nights, and teardrops swelling into oceans, the song portrays love as an all-encompassing bond that transcends space, physical distance, and time. Lyricist Thamarai elevates the emotion by framing the lover as everything—the beginning, the end, the flower, and the entire universe. Even when temporary distance or misunderstandings cause sorrow, the speaker reassures that their love remains an unalterable truth, enduring beyond hardship and even death itself.

Trivia
When 'Maru Varthai Pesaadhae' was released as a single in early 2017, the director Gautham Vasudev Menon intentionally kept the music director's identity secret, crediting him as 'Mr. X'. This unique marketing strategy generated immense curiosity across Tamil cinema. It was later revealed to be composed by Darbuka Siva, and the song became an instant chartbuster.
