மௌனம் போல மெல்லிசை ஒன்று
பூமியில் ஏதும் இல்லை
உண்மை எல்லாம் உள்ளத்தில் உண்டு
வார்த்தைகள் தேவை இல்லை
ஊமை மனமே காலம் உனதே ஓ
எண்ணம் போலே மாறும் உலகே ஓ
There is no soft music on Earth like silence
Nothing else like it exists in this world
All truth resides within the heart
Words are not needed at all
Oh silent heart, time belongs to you
Oh world, it changes according to thoughts
நிம்மதி தந்தாலே
வந்து விடும் சன்னிதி முன்னாலே
சஞ்சலம் எல்லமே
சென்று விடும் சொந்தங்கள் வந்தாலே
ஹோ ஓ ஓ ஹோ
If peace is granted
A divine presence will arrive right in front
All troubles and worries
Will fade away once loved ones arrive
Hoo o oo hooooooo
எத்தனையோ ராகங்கள் மண்ணில் உண்டு
எத்தனையோ தாளங்கள் இங்கு உண்டு
எங்கள் கீதம் மௌனம் தானே
எத்தனையோ ஆலயம் மண்ணில் உண்டு
எத்தனையோ ஆகம வேதம் உண்டு
எங்கள் கோயில் இல்லம் தானே
There are so many ragas on this earth
There are so many rhythms here
Yet our anthem is silence itself
There are so many temples on this earth
There are so many sacred scriptures
Yet our temple is our home itself
அன்னை முகம் பார்த்ததில்லை
ஆரிராரோ கேட்டதில்லை
அன்பு தரும் யாவருமே
அன்னை தானே
தந்தையுடன் வாழ வில்லை
தோளில் ஏறி ஆட வில்லை
அத்தனைக்கும் மேலே இங்கே
எல்லாம் கொண்டோமே
Never seen a mother's face
Never heard a soothing lullaby
Anyone who showers love
Is indeed a mother
Did not live with a father
Did not climb on shoulders to play
Above all that, here
We have witnessed everything
மௌனம் போல மெல்லிசை ஒன்று
பூமியில் ஏதும் இல்லை
உண்மை எல்லாம் உள்ளத்தில் உண்டு
வார்த்தைகள் தேவை இல்லை
நல்ல மனமே வாழும் நிதமே
எண்ணம் போலே சேரும் நலமே
There is no soft music on Earth like silence
Nothing else like it exists in this world
All truth resides within the heart
Words are not needed at all
Oh good heart, you are a living treasure
Goodness gathers according to pure thoughts
வண்ண வண்ண வானவில்
கண்டது இல்லை
வந்து விழும் பூக்களை
பார்த்தது இல்லை
வாசமே போதும் சுகம் தானே
A colorful rainbow
We have never seen
The flowers that fall down
We have never seen
The fragrance alone is enough comfort and joy
சின்ன சின்ன இன்பங்கள்
இங்கு உண்டு
சொல்லிக்கொள்ள பந்தங்கள்
என்றுமுண்டு
நம்மை நாமே நேசிப்போமே
Small, simple pleasures
Exist right here
Relationships to call our own
Are always present
Let us love ourselves
பார்வைகள் தேவை இல்லை
பார்க்கவும் ஆசை இல்லை
யாவுமே பார்த்து விட்டோம் உள்ளத்தாலே
கேட்கவும் ஏதுமில்லை
பேசி கொள்ள தேவை இல்லை
தெய்வமே தூது செல்லும் இங்கே வந்தாலே
Sight is not necessary
There is no desire to see either
We have seen everything through the inner heart
There is nothing left to hear
There is no need to speak with words
God himself acts as a messenger if you come here
மௌனம் போல மெல்லிசை ஒன்று
பூமியில் ஏதும் இல்லை
உண்மை எல்லாம் உள்ளத்தில் உண்டு
வார்த்தைகள் தேவை இல்லை
வந்த உறவே நல்ல வரவே
என்றும் நீயே எங்கள் சிறகே

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song from the movie 'Vanangaan', composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar with lyrics by Karthik Netha, beautifully celebrates the supreme power of silence, internal perception, and unconditional love. It emphasizes that silence is the sweetest melody on Earth and that true feelings and truths do not require spoken words. The song portrays individuals who may be visually or vocally impaired, yet experience the world vividly through their hearts, finding divine presence and maternal/paternal warmth in the bonds of family and pure human connection. The lyrics elevate simple living, inner vision, and domestic contentment above formal temples, complex scriptures, and physical sight. Ultimately, it delivers a deeply poignant message about self-love, emotional resilience, and finding profound happiness in silent, heartfelt connections.
