மாமு பொழுது
போகல படம் பிடிக்கல
கண்ணில் பசுமை காணல
காற்று கூட அடிக்கல
Friend, time is not passing by at all.
I did not even like the movie.
I see no greenery in my eyes.
Even the gentle breeze is not blowing.
ஓஓஓ................
(Melodic vocalizing)
ஒரு தாமரை
நீரினில் இல்லாமல்
இங்கே ஏன் இரு
மேகலை பாதங்கள்
மண் மீது புண்ணாவதேன்
Why is a lotus standing here without being in the water?
Why is it here without water?
Why are those feet clad in anklets getting bruised on the earth?
Getting wounded upon the soil?
ஓர் ஓவியம்
காகிதம் கொள்ளாமல்
இங்கே ஏன் அதன் ஆயிரம்
ஆயிரம் வண்ணங்கள்
பெண்ணாவது ஏன்
Why is a beautiful painting standing here without paper?
Why is it standing here without canvas?
Why are its thousands upon thousands of colors...
Turning into a living woman?
ஓஓஓ.....ஓஓஓ.....
ஓஓஓ.....ஓஓஓ.....
(Melodic vocalizing)
(Melodic vocalizing)
நான் பிழைப்பேனோ
மூச்சு வாங்குதே நூறையும்
தாண்டி காய்ச்சல் ஏறுதே
Will I survive this sensation?
I am panting and gasping for breath.
Crossing even a hundred degrees,
My feverish warmth keeps rising.
ஞாபகம் எல்லாம்
பாவை ஆகுதே நாடகம்
போலே நாட்கள் போகுதே
All of my memories...
Are turning into the form of this maiden.
Just like a theatrical play,
The days are passing by.
ஆயிரம் பூக்கள்
தூவ தோணுதே
தோன்றிடும்போதே
பாவம் தீருதே
A thousand flowers,
I feel like showering upon her.
The moment she appears,
All my sins and sufferings are cleansed.
காரிகை யாலே
காற்றும் மாறுதே
வானிலை வெப்பம்
தோற்றுப் போகுதே
Because of this beautiful maiden,
Even the direction of the wind changes.
The thermal heat of the climate...
Stands defeated before her.
காலை விழிப்பு
வந்ததும் கண்ணில்
அவள் முகம் என்னை
புதிய ஒருவனை செய்யும்
செய்யும் அறிமுகம்
As soon as I wake up in the morning,
Her face appears before my eyes.
Making me a completely new person,
This introduction transforms me forever.
இதுநாள் வரை
நாள் வரை இல்லாத
பூந்தோட்டம் திடு
திப்பேனே திப்பேனே
எங்கெங்கும் ஏன் வந்தது
A flower garden that never existed until today,
A garden never seen before,
Suddenly and unexpectedly,
Why has it bloomed everywhere?
உன்னை பார்ப்பது
நிச்சயம் என்றான அன்றாடம்
என்னை சில்லிட வைத்திடும்
பூகம்பம் தான் தந்தது
Seeing you every day has become a certainty,
A routine occurring day after day.
Making a thrill run through me,
It gave me an earthquake-like excitement.
ஓஓஓ.....ஓஓஓ.....
ஓஓஓ.....ஓஓஓ.....

ஏன் உன்னை
பார்த்தால் பூர்வ ஞாபகம்
ஏழெட்டு நுாலாய்
வந்து போகணும்
Why is it that when I look at you,
Memories of past births awaken?
Passing through seven or eight eras/lifelines,
Coming and going in thoughts.
வீட்டுக்கு போனால்
அங்கும் உன்முகம்
வீம்புடன் வந்தே
வீழ்த்தி பார்க்கணும்
When I return home,
Your face appears there as well.
Coming with stubborn persistence,
It wants to captivate and defeat me.
வெண்ணிலா
தூரத்து பார்வைகள்
போகாதே அதை என்னிடம்
வா என்று சொன்னாலும்
வராதே
Oh Moon...
Distant glances are no longer enough.
Even if I tell her to come to me,
She will not come easily.
நான்கைந்து வார்த்தைகள்
நான் சேர்க்கிறேன் வைரக்கல்
போல ஒவ்வொன்றும்
நான் கோர்க்கிறேன்
Four or five words,
I am carefully assembling.
Like precious diamond stones, each word,
I am stringing them into a poetic necklace.
ஏதேனும்
பேசாமல் தீராதினி
உறையும் பனி
Without speaking something out loud,
This sweet ache will not subside.
Like freezing snow...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song captures the intense, feverish state of infatuation and love experienced by a young man upon encountering his beloved. He feels disoriented and mesmerized, describing how the mundane world loses its color and time stands still when she is not around. The lyrics weave vivid poetic imagery comparing the heroine to a floating lotus, a painting brought to life, and a soothing breeze that transforms his reality.
