Tanglish lyrics English translation
Male
Nenjodu nee sollamalaeWithout you saying a word to my heart,
Perungaadhal enai vandhu vattudhadiA great love comes and surrounds me.
Thodu vaanamaai mazhai meghamaaiLike a touching horizon and a rain cloud,
Namakaana kaalangal meendum varudhaAre the times meant for us returning once again?
Male
Ennanadho yedhaanadhoI wonder what happened and how it came to be,
Perumpaarai keeri oru poo pookuthaeA delicate flower blooms, splitting through a massive rock.
Ennanadho yedhaanadhoI wonder what happened and how it came to be,
Sollatha soll ellaam unai kattudhaeAll the unspoken words seem to embrace you.
Male
Ariyamalae naan vazhgirenI live my life without even realizing it,
Theriyamal yekkangal thodhaaguthoAre these inner longings turning favorable without my knowledge?
Puthithaagave unai kaangirenI see you in a completely new light,
Ullaadum kadhalgal marai mattrudhoDoes the love dancing within change its hidden nature?
Male
Naan pesidum mounangal neeYou are the silence through which I speak,
Naan pesidaa kaadhalgal neeYou are the unuttered love within me.
Yaarodu thaan yaar enbathuTo know who truly belongs to whom,
Nee theendum manam ketkudhuThe heart touched by you seeks to find out.
Unnodu naan uravaagavaeTo form a lifelong bond with you,
En nenjam than enai ketkudhaeMy own heart keeps questioning me.
Naam serndhida kalam varumA time will surely come for us to unite,
Un nenjilum eeram tharumAnd it will bring emotional warmth to your heart as well.
