En thanima pesukindra sorkal yaavilume
Unadhu swaasam veesum
En paadhai nedugilum padarnthu kidakkura
Unadhu suwadu pesum
Nee illai endradhum agathiyaagiye
Kidakku enadhu desham
Oru soodu adayave thedi alaiyudhe
Paavam enadhu nesam
Uyiraare uyiraare enakkaana uyiraare
Uravaare uravaare enakkaane uravaare
Nilaiyillaa nilaiyaaga
Niram maari pogindren
En thanima pesukindra sorkal yaavilume
Unadhu swaasam veesum
En paadhai nedugilum padarnthu kidakkura
Unadhu suwadu pesum
Hoo oooo ooooo
Keel karugidum maayakkanavugal
Theriyaamal thinariponen

In all the words my loneliness speaks,
your breath blows through.
Spread out all along my path,
your footprints speak to me.
The moment you were gone, like a refugee,
my world lies desolate.
Searching to find a little warmth,
my poor love wanders alone.
O river of life, O river of life, the life meant for me,
O river of love, O river of love, the bond meant for me,
In this unsettled state,
I keep fading away.
In all the words my loneliness speaks,
your breath blows through.
Spread out all along my path,
your footprints speak to me.
Oh oh oh oh oh
As illusory dreams burn to ashes beneath me,
I struggled, not knowing what to do.
Unable to find my path in any direction,
I began to lose my way.
Whenever I think of forgetting you,
I end up losing myself.
With a heart searching and longing for you,
my entire life has turned empty.
O river of life, O river of life, the life meant for me,
O river of love, O river of love, the bond meant for me,
In this unsettled state,
I keep fading away.
Memories from so far away,
and tender dreams—why did you give them to me?
In this play of life that I act,
why did you tear away the roles I put on?
There is no place left for me to run and hide,
why did you make me run?
The pain I carry from the trials you put me through,
what made you enjoy watching it?
O river of life, O river of life, the life meant for me,
O river of love, O river of love, the bond meant for me,
In this unsettled state,
I keep fading away.
Memories from so far away,
and tender dreams—why did you give them to me?
In this play of life that I act,
why did you tear away the roles I put on?

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This song expresses deep yearning, heartache, and existential disorientation caused by separation from a beloved partner. The speaker feels that every silent moment and path walked is saturated with memories of the loved one. Without them, the speaker's internal world feels displaced like a refugee, wandering aimlessly in search of warmth and losing identity. As the grief deepens, the speaker questions why the beloved bestowed lingering memories, tear-soaked dreams, and emotional trials only to watch them dismantle their front of composure. The composition portrays love as both a life-giving force and a painful test that alters the speaker's state of being.
