Neenda dhooram pogum paadhai oorai saerumo

Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
There is no one like you in this entire land.
There is no scripture greater than love on this earth.
Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
The gentle breeze whispers as it blows past,
your name—the name of one who shows affection even to a stone.
The eyelids may fall asleep, but the heart never sleeps.
A pathway may come to a halt, but friendship never stagnates.
Like a kolam (rice-flour pattern) at the doorway, friendship comes together beautifully.
Times may change, but the memories will live on.
You are the one who shows pure kindness without any malice in your heart.
You are the one who gives everything without expecting anything in return.
Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
Aararo aarariraaro, aararo aarariraaro...
I do not wish to wait for tomorrow to reach you; shed the distance.
Hold me close with the bond of our past lifetime.
Why have dreams themselves turned into waking eyes?
Why does the scorching sun embrace my body like a gentle drizzle?
Since you live within me, what troubles could there be?
You and I are the young children of mother Love.
Roam freely in my thoughts like the winding waves of a river.
Beyond generations of kinship, become eternal in my soul.
Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
There is no one like you in this entire land.
There is no scripture greater than love on this earth.
Will this long road ever reach the town?
Will the cloud that joined the blue sky ever drift away?
