பேசுகிறேன் பேசுகிறேன்
உன் இதயம் பேசுகிறேன்
புயல் அடித்தால் கலங்காதே
நான் பூக்கள் நீட்டுகிறேன்
எதை நீ தொலைத்தாலும்
மனதை தொலைக்காதே
I am speaking, I am speaking, I am speaking as your heart.
Do not be distressed if a storm strikes.
I am offering you flowers.
Whatever you may lose,
Do not lose your heart...
அடங்காமலே
அலைபாய்வதேன்
மனமல்லவா ....
Why does it waver without restraint,
Is it because of the mind's nature?

கடல் தாண்டும்
பறவைகெல்லாம் இளைபாற
மரங்கள் இல்லை கலங்காமலே
கண்டம் தாண்டுமே
For birds crossing the ocean,
There are no trees on which to rest.
Yet without fear, they cross continents..

நீயும் மீண்டும் சின்ன புள்ளிகள்
வைத்தாய் முடிவு என்பதும்
ஆரம்பமே
Near a full stop, you
Placed small dots once again.
Even an ending is merely a new beginning..
வளைவில்லாமல்
மலை கிடையாது வலி
இல்லாமல் மனம் கிடையாது
வருந்தாதே வா
There is no mountain without curves.
There is no human heart without pain.
Do not grieve, come...

Why does it waver without restraint,
Is it because of the mind's nature?
காட்டில் உள்ள
செடிகளுக்கெல்லாம்
தண்ணீர் ஊற்ற ஆளே
இல்லை தன்னை
காக்கவே தானாய்
வளருமே
For all the plants growing in the forest,
There is no person to pour water.
To protect themselves, they grow on their own..
ஓஹோ ஓ பெண்கள்
நெஞ்சின் பாரம் எல்லாம்
பெண்ணே கொஞ்ச நேரம்
தானே உன்னை தோன்றினால்
இன்பம் தோன்றுமே
Oh, all the burden in a woman's heart,
Oh girl, is only temporary.
If you dig inside yourself, happiness will spring forth.
விடியாமல் தான்
ஒரு இரவேது வழியாமல்
தான் வெள்ளம் கிடையாது
வருந்தாதே வா
Which night exists that does not end in dawn?
Which flood exists without overflowing?
Do not grieve, come...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Pesugiren Pesugiren from the movie Satham Podathey is an uplifting, empathetic song where the narrator's inner conscience or heart speaks to her during a period of deep sorrow and turmoil. Written by Na. Muthu Kumar, the song serves as a gentle reminder that pain and difficult phases are an inescapable part of human existence, just as storms, curves on mountains, and dark nights are inherent to nature. Through beautiful natural imagery—such as migratory birds flying across oceans without resting trees and wild plants sustaining themselves—the song encourages resilience. It reassures the listener that an apparent ending is simply an ellipsis leading to a fresh beginning, urging her never to lose heart regardless of life's losses.
