Even the rain will reach the soil,
if from the corner of your playful eyes
you just give a glance, that is enough,
it will sow the seeds of love.
Even the fish will climb up trees,
if from the corner of your shining lips
you just smile, that is enough,
love will reach its shore.
Oh cruel girl, with your breath
you strike me, you keep striking me down!
Oh beautiful girl, in the language
you speak with your eyes, you called out my name.
Even the rain will reach the soil,
if from the corner of your playful eyes
you just give a glance, that is enough,
it will sow the seeds of love.
Even the fish will climb up trees,
if from the corner of your shining lips
you just smile, that is enough,
love will reach its shore.
I pretend to be fine, but
I am no longer myself.
Never before in my life
has love ruined my sleep.
I am restless ever since I saw you,
no one has ever struck me down and left like you.
My heart is crumbling to pieces,
oh cruel girl, won't you look at me just a little?
Even if the whole world comes to a stop,
if the breath of your air touches it,
the earth will spin all on its own.
Even the rain will reach the soil,
if from the corner of your playful eyes
you just give a glance, that is enough,
it will sow the seeds of love.
Even the fish will climb up trees,
if from the corner of your shining lips
you just smile, that is enough,
love will reach its shore.
...
My love will transform,
it will turn into the wind,
leaping across all eight directions,
it will reach you.
It will brush against you ever so gently,
and that is enough... oh...
My love will transform,
it will turn into the wind,
leaping across all eight directions,
it will reach you.
It will brush against you ever so gently,
and that is enough... oh...
Oh my wife,
girl, you are my other half,
my girl,
and I am the rest of you.
Oh my wife,
girl, you are my other half,
my girl, oh my girl,
and I am the rest of you.
I pretend to be fine, but
I am no longer myself.
Never before in my life
has love ruined my sleep.
I am restless ever since I saw you,
no one has ever struck me down and left like you.
My heart is crumbling to pieces,
oh cruel girl, won't you look at me just a little?
Even if the whole world comes to a stop,
if the breath of your air touches it,
the earth will spin all on its own.
Even the rain will reach the soil,
if from the corner of your playful eyes
you just give a glance, that is enough,
it will sow the seeds of love.
Even the fish will climb up trees,
if from the corner of your shining lips
you just smile, that is enough,
love will reach its shore.

Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
Ponjaadhiye is a passionate independent Tamil love track where the lover expresses the overwhelming impact his beloved has on his life and mind. He uses vivid imagery—comparing her smile and mischievous glances to natural miracles capable of making rain meet the earth and fish climb trees. Her presence confuses his daily routine, deprives him of sleep, and makes his heart crumble in affectionate surrender.
