Unnai nambi vandha ennai
Enna seiya uthesan
Anbu irundhaal vaazhkai kodu
Illai endraal solli vidu
Un arugaamai enakku inidhaagum
Nee maruthaal yedhum illai
Nenjam ellam nee thaan
Thanjam endraal solven
Unnai nambi vandha ennai
Enna seiya uthesan
Nenjil ulla anbai ellaam
Unnidathil thandha pinne
Thandha anbai thandhu vittaal
Naan vandha vazhi sendriduven
Unadhu kaal adi podhume
Udhari viduvadhum yenadaa
Un anbin aazham ellaam
Naan ariven ennidathil maraipapdhen
Konjam kooda gnyaayam illai
Unnai nambi vandha ennai
Enna seiya uthesan
Engu engu sendru vandhom
Naam enna enna seidhu irundhom
Konja venum …ninaipom
Enai thalli veikka aagiduma
Thaai anbai nee arivaaya
Adhai thaaiyaai thandhadhu naanada
Maravaadhae adhai ninaipaayae
Vandhu vidu ennuyire anbai thandhu
Katti kollu katti kollu
Unnai nambi vandha ennai

Enna seiya uthesan
I came to you trusting you completely,
what do you intend to do with me?
If you have love, give me a life with you;
if not, just tell me so.
Being near you brings me so much joy,
if you reject me, nothing is left.
You are all that fills my heart;
if I have a refuge, I will say it is you.
I came to you trusting you completely,
what do you intend to do with me?
After giving all the love in my heart
entirely to you,
if you can return the love I gave,
I will go back the way I came.
Just being at your feet is enough for me,
why do you brush me aside?
The full depth of your love,
I know it well—why hide it from me?
This is not fair at all.
I came to you trusting you completely,
what do you intend to do with me?
All the places we went together,
all the things we did together,
we longed to show our love... remember?
Can you really push me away?
Do you know the depth of a mother's love?
I was the one who gave you love like a mother!
Do not forget it, please remember.
Come back, my life, and give me your love;
hold me close, embrace me tightly.
I came to you trusting you completely,
what do you intend to do with me?
If you have love, give me a life with you;
if not, just tell me so.
Being near you brings me so much joy,
if you reject me, nothing is left.
You are all that fills my heart;
if I have a refuge, I will say it is you.
I came to you trusting you completely,
what do you intend to do with me?

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This emotional melody is a poignant plea from a woman who has given her complete trust and heart to her beloved. Standing at a crossroads in their relationship, she directly asks him about his true intentions—asking whether he will embrace her and give her a life together, or clearly tell her to move on if his love has waned. She reflects on their shared past, the tenderness she bestowed upon him like a mother's selfless care, and the deep love she knows resides within him, begging him not to push her away or hide his feelings.
