| Pesida kadal osai neekkudhae | The sound of the sea clears away so we can talk |
| Male | |
| Vennilavadhu kooda vaaimoodi | Even the white moon remains silent |
| Namadhu kadhai kettae thoongaadho | Will it not fall asleep listening to our story? |

தைலாங்குயில் தைலாங்குயில்
தலையாட்டுதே பார்த்து
எனக்காகவும் உனக்காகவும்
இசைமீட்டுதே காத்து
Oh Tailang cuckoo, oh Tailang cuckoo
It nods its head looking at us
For my sake and for your sake
The breeze plays music
இதுவரையில் பார்த்திடாத
வானவில் மலர்க்காட்டை நீட்டுதே
இரவு பகல் நீயும் நானும்
பேசிட கடல் ஓசை நீக்குதே
Never seen before until now
The rainbow extends a bouquet of flowers
Night and day, you and I
The sound of the sea clears away so we can talk
வெண்ணிலவது கூட வாய்மூடி
நமது கதை கேட்டே தூங்காதோ
எத்தனை சுகம் வாழ்வில் என்றேதான்
உலகம் நமை பார்த்தே ஏங்காதோ
Even the white moon remains silent
Will it not fall asleep listening to our story?
Wondering how much joy there is in life
Won't the world look at us and yearn?
தைலாங்குயில் தைலாங்குயில்
தலையாட்டுதே பார்த்து
எனக்காகவும் உனக்காகவும்
இசைமீட்டுதே காத்து
Oh Tailang cuckoo, oh Tailang cuckoo
It nods its head looking at us
For my sake and for your sake
The breeze plays music
ஹா ஆ...ஆஅ...ஆஅ...
Ah... aa...
நீயே எல்லாமென்று
என் காதல் கோலம் தீட்டாதோ
பாவம் அய்யோ என்று
உன் பாசம் ஜாடை காட்டாதோ
Saying you are everything
Won't my love draw beautiful patterns?
Feeling pity and affection
Won't your affection give gentle gestures?
மணல்வெளிகள் உன் நினைவுகளால்
பொன் துகள்கள் என்றாகும் போது
கனவுகளோ என் கவலைகளோ
நம் உறவைத் துண்டாடிடாது
When sandy lands, with your memories
Turn into particles of gold
Neither dreams nor my worries
Can sever our bond...
ஒளி வீசும் சூரியன் நீயோ
கதை பேசும் காதலின் தாயோ
மனதை மழையாய் பொழிவாயோ
Are you the light-radiating sun?
Are you the mother of storytelling love?
Will you pour happiness over my heart like rain?
தைலாங்குயில் தைலாங்குயில்
தலையாட்டுதே பார்த்து
எனக்காகவும் உனக்காகவும்
இசைமீட்தே காத்து
Oh Tailang cuckoo, oh Tailang cuckoo
It nods its head looking at us
For my sake and for your sake
The breeze plays music
இதுவரையில் பார்த்திடாத
வானவில் மலர்க்காட்டை நீட்டுதே
இரவு பகல் நீயும் நானும்
பேசிட கடல் ஓசை நீக்குதே
Never seen before until now
The rainbow extends a bouquet of flowers
Night and day, you and I
The sound of the sea clears away so we can talk
வெண்ணிலவது கூட வாய்மூடி
நமது கதை கேட்டே தூங்காதோ
எத்தனை சுகம் வாழ்வில் என்றேதான்
உலகம் நமை பார்த்தே ஏங்காதோ
Even the white moon remains silent
Will it not fall asleep listening to our story?
Wondering how much joy there is in life
Won't the world look at us and yearn?
தைலாங்குயில் தைலாங்குயில்
தலையாட்டுதே
Ah... aa...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Thailaanguyil from the film Yutha Satham is a soul-stirring romantic track celebrating deep love and harmony with nature. The lyrics convey how nature itself becomes a participant in the couple's bond—the wind creates melodies, the rainbow offers flowers, and the sea hushes its waves so they can speak undisturbed. Love elevates ordinary existence, turning barren sand into golden dust, rendering their relationship resilient against life's worries.
