ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் உன்னோடு
இல்லாமல் வாழ்வது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் என் வாழ்வில்
இல்லாமல் போகுது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
A day spent without you...
...living like that...
...a day in my life...
...is completely fading away.
ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் உன்னோடு
இல்லாமல் வாழ்வது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் என் வாழ்வில்
இல்லாமல் போகுது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
A day spent without you...
...living like that...
...a day in my life...
...is completely fading away.
அலைபேசி அது
தொடர் வருவதும் ஏனோ
தொலைபேசி அதை
தொட மறுப்பதும் ஏனோ
வேண்டாத ஆளாகி போனேனா
சொல்லன்பே
நோகுதே....வழி தெரியவில்லை
தவறென்ன சொல்லாமல் தண்டித்து
செல்லாதே...
காதலே....ஒன்றும் புரியவில்லை....ஈ....
That mobile phone...
...why does it keep ringing?
That telephone...
...why do you refuse to pick it up?
Have I become an unwanted person?
Tell me, my love.
It hurts... I see no way out.
Punishing me without telling my mistake...
...don't walk away.
Oh love... I don't understand anything...
ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் உன்னோடு
இல்லாமல் வாழ்வது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
ஒரு நாள் ஒரு நாள் என் வாழ்வில்
இல்லாமல் போகுது ஹோ ஓ ஓ
A day spent without you...
...living like that...
...a day in my life...

ஹா....ஆஅ....ரா....ரா...ஆஅ....ஆஅ....
Haa....aa..raaa....raa....aaa.....aaa..
எனது மனது
கடிகாரம்தானே
இரவும் பகலும்
உன் நேரம்தானே
எதனால் தொலைவாய் போகிறாய்
எதிரி போலே பார்க்கிறாய்
My heart...
...is indeed a clock.
Night and day...
...it marks only your time.
Why are you moving so far away?
Why do you look at me like an enemy?
உனக்காய் முழுதாய் உடலை
தானம் செய்தவன்
உயிரை கேட்டல் அதையும்
தானம் செய்பவன்
The one who surrendered his entire body for you...
...who gave it away as a gift...
...if you ask for his life too...
...he would gladly donate that as well.
போகாதே போகாதே
என் நெஞ்சம் தாங்காதே
காதலே....ஏ....ஏ....ஏ....ஏ.....
Don't go, don't go...
My heart cannot bear it.
Oh love....
ஹா....ஆஅ....ரா....ரா...ஆஅ....ஆஅ....
Haa....aa..raaa....raa....aaa.....aaa..

A day spent without you...
...living like that...
...a day in my life...
...is completely fading away.
அடியோடு நீ எனை
வெறுத்திடலாமா
கரி பூசி என் கனவு
அழித்திடலாமா
Can you completely...
...hate me to the core?
Smearing charcoal on my dreams...
...can you destroy them like that?
நான் தப்பு செய்தேனா
உன் நெஞ்சை கொய்தேனா
கூறடி...
உயிர் வலிக்கிறதே
பொய் ஏதும் சொன்னேனா
கை மீறி சென்றேனா
சொல்லடி....
தலை வெடிக்கிறதே...ஏ...ஏ....ஏ...
Did I do something wrong?
Did I pluck and break your heart?
Tell me...
My soul is aching.
Did I tell you any lies?
Did I cross my limits?
Tell me...
My head feels like it's exploding...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song from the movie 'Angelina' conveys the intense grief and heartbreak of a lover who has been suddenly ignored and alienated by his partner. The protagonist feels that every single day spent away from his beloved is a day lost forever from his lifetime. He is deeply unsettled by her unresponsiveness—her refusal to answer his calls—and feels punished without even knowing what mistake he committed.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Metaphor
“Enadhu manadhu / Kadigaaram thaanae”
The speaker directly compares his heart to a clock, emphasizing that every second of his existence functions only according to her presence and time.
Simile
“Ethiri polae paarkkiraai”
Compares the cold, distant look in the beloved's eyes to that of an enemy ('ethiri polae').
Iyaipu (End Rhyme)
“Naan thappu seidhenaa... / Poi yedhum sonnenaa / Kai meeri sendrenaa”
The repetitive end rhyming with the interrogative suffix '-enaa' heightens the emotional questioning and desperation.
Hyperbole
“Thalai vedikkirathae”
Exaggerates the mental stress and anguish by describing his head as 'exploding'.
