Iru vizhi podhadhe
Iru vizhi podhadhe
Idai veli vandhalum
Idai veli vandhalum
Pirindhae pogadhae
Pirindhae pogadhae
…………… aanalum manadhile veikkadhae
Ondraai naam ponaal payanam theerathae
Pani kaatrin paadhai enge
Adhai thedi povom inge
Namakkaana vaanam mele
Adhil dhooram pogalaam
Valaindhodum saalai kadandhome
Karaindhodum neram marandhome
Vizhi paarkum yaavum rasiththome
Alai pola paayum manamae
Vidindhaalum vaanil thondrum
Nilavaaga vaazha vendum
Padagirukka kadal namadhe
Both : Naam alaiyaavom naame karaiyaavom
Vazhi yaavum ponaa pinnum
Agamondrai thedum nenjam
Payanangalilae llakkanam illai
Nanna jothegaaraa
Both : Karai mele paadham kondu
Vazhi dhorum thadam naamum vaithom
Naalai or alai thedi vandhaal
Nenjodu idham kaanalaam
Both : Valaindhodum saalai kadandhome
Karaindhodum neram marandhome
Vizhi paarkum yaavum rasiththome
Alai pola paayum manamae…
Two eyes are not enough
Two eyes are not enough
Even if distance comes between us
Even if distance comes between us
Do not drift apart
Do not drift apart
...Even so, do not take it to heart
If we walk together, the journey will never end
Where is the path of the misty breeze?
Let us go searching for it here
The sky above is meant for us
We can travel far across it
We crossed the winding road
Forgetting the time slipping away
Enjoying everything our eyes could see
Oh, this heart that rushes like a wave
Appearing in the sky even after dawn,
we should live like the moon
With a boat, the sea is ours
Both: We will become the wave, we will become the shore
Even after travelling every path,
the heart still searches for a home within
There are no set rules in our journeys
Nanna Jothegara (my companion)
Both: Setting our feet upon the shore,
we left our footprints all along the way
If a wave comes searching for them tomorrow,
we can still find comfort in our hearts
Both: We crossed the winding road
Forgetting the time slipping away
Enjoying everything our eyes could see
Oh, this heart that rushes like a wave...
