Nadai payil siru varam
Siru adi edu dhinam
Siragai viri parandhu poo
Vaanam thoda vendum vaaa
Sirikkum poo nee dhaana
Thaavidum poon thaenaa
Kanavoo ninaivoo neeyoo
Yaaro thunaiyo haiyoo
Paniyo kilaiyo…
Un mozhiyoo hooo oo
Nadai payil siru varam
Siru adi edu dhinam
Siragai viri parandhu poo
Vaanam thoda vendum vaaa
A little blessing learning to walk,
Take small steps every day.
Spread your wings and fly away,
Come, you must touch the sky!
Are you a smiling flower?
Are you sweet nectar leaping around?
Are you a dream or a memory?
Are you a stranger or my companion? Oh my!
Are you the dew, or a branch...?
Or is that your voice? Oh...
A little blessing learning to walk,
Take small steps every day.
Spread your wings and fly away,
Come, you must touch the sky!
