This fruit-laden grove
Is created just for me
The Creator made it
Precisely for that reason
I am its rhythm and beat
I shall listen to it daily, morning and evening
I am its rhythm and beat
I shall listen to it daily, morning and evening
A thousand magic patterns grace this place...
பழமுதிர்ச் சோலை
எனக்காகத்தான்
படைத்தவன் படைத்தான்
அதற்காகத்தான்
This fruit-laden grove
Is created just for me
The Creator made it
Precisely for that reason
நான்தான் அதன் ராகம் தாளமும்
கேட்டேன் தினம் காலை மாலையும்
நான்தான் அதன் ராகம் தாளமும்
கேட்டேன் தினம் காலை மாலையும்
கோலம் அதன் ஜாலம்
இங்கு ஓராயிரம்
O clouds floating in the distance
Drizzle down upon the earth
So the rooted garden sways in the water
O cranes catching fish in the lake
I have no wings, give me yours
To travel from town to town and sing epic poems
பழமுதிர்ச் சோலை
எனக்காகத்தான்
படைத்தவன் படைத்தான்
அதற்காகத்தான்
Like birds, we too
Must soar high
Above the snow-capped mountains, we
Must float freely
An intoxication of joy
My heart celebrates now...
தூரத்தில் போகின்ற மேகங்களே
தூரல்கள் போடுங்கள் பூமியிலே
வேர் கொண்ட பூஞ்சோலை
நீர் கொண்டு ஆட
This fruit-laden grove
Is created just for me
The Creator made it
Precisely for that reason
ஏரியில் மீன்
கொத்தும் நாரைகளே
இறகுகள் எனக்கில்லை
தாருங்களே
ஊர் விட்டு ஊர் சென்று
காவியம் பாட
All relationships
Are like a continuing saga
Growing daily through memories
Like fine threads coming together
Hearts that drew close
The day they blend like milk and ghee
பறவைகள் போல் நாம்
பறந்திட வேண்டும்
பனி மலை மேல் நாம்
மிதந்திட வேண்டும்
ஏதோ ஒரு போதை
மனம் கொண்டாடுதே
Father and mother
Joyfully bonding together
Relationships blossom making thoughts sweet
Children were lovingly nurtured here
Where on earth is a heaven greater than this?
பழமுதிர்ச் சோலை
எனக்காகத்தான்
படைத்தவன் படைத்தான்
அதற்காகத்தான்
Affections and love
Never get separated
Cracks in the sky
Never appear
பந்தங்கள் யாவும்
தொடர்க்கதை போல்
நாளும் வளர்ந்திடும்
நினைவுகளால்
Like classic literature, our
Family shines brightly
Without pause, the heart
Basks in endless delight...
நூலிழை போல் இங்கு
நெருங்கிய இதயங்கள்
பாலுடன் நெய்யென
கலந்திடும் நாள்
This fruit-laden grove
Is created just for me
The Creator made it
Precisely for that reason
I am its rhythm and beat
I shall listen to it daily, morning and evening
I am its rhythm and beat
I shall listen to it daily, morning and evening
A thousand magic patterns grace this place...
தந்தையும் தாயும்
மகிழ்ந்து குலாவி
சிந்தை இனித்திட
உறவுகள் மேவி
பிள்ளைகள் பேணி
வளர்ந்தது இங்கே
மண்ணில் இதைவிட
சொர்க்கமெங்கே
This fruit-laden grove
Is created just for me
The Creator made it
Precisely for that reason
நேசங்கள் பாசங்கள் பிரிவதில்லை
வானத்தில் விரிசல்கள் விழுவதில்லை
நேசங்கள் பாசங்கள் பிரிவதில்லை
என்றும் வானத்தில் விரிசல்கள்
விழுவதில்லை
இலக்கியம் போல்
எங்கள் குடும்பமும் விளங்க
இடை விடாது மனமொரு
மகிழ்ச்சியில் திளைத்திட
பழமுதிர்ச் சோலை
எனக்காகத்தான்
படைத்தவன் படைத்தான்
அதற்காகத்தான்
நான்தான் அதன் ராகம் தாளமும்
கேட்டேன் தினம் காலை மாலையும்
நான்தான் அதன் ராகம் தாளமும்
கேட்டேன் தினம் காலை மாலையும்
கோலம் அதன் ஜாலம்
இங்கு ஓராயிரம்
பழமுதிர்ச் சோலை
எனக்காகத்தான்
படைத்தவன் படைத்தான்
