Do not leave me, my life.
Do not leave me, my life.
If you walk away, won't it depart,
this life of mine?
Before getting to know me, my sweet parrot,
do not fly away outside.
If you leave, won't it depart at once,
my very life?
My love, my love,
my love is not a lie.
My love, my love,
there is no way to put it into words.
My love, my love,
without you, I cannot exist.
Ah, the blessing given by God,
as soon as it reached my hands,
is breaking away from me.
Do not leave me, my life.
Do not leave me, my life.
If you walk away, won't it depart,
this life of mine?
Before getting to know me, my sweet parrot,
do not fly away outside.
If you leave, won't it depart at once,
my very life?
Ha ha... ah... ha ha
Ha... ha... aaha... ha...
Female: Aaha... aa... a... ha... aa

My gentle deer, why is it
that I cannot understand your silence?
To comfort you,
I have no words in my reach.
Yet, the love I have for you
has not lessened at all.
With no path in sight,
and no light to guide me,
I am trapped in a dense forest.
Without understanding me,
when you walk away,
I am left wounded.
One day, time will whisper
my love into your ears.
My love, my love,
my love is not a lie.
My love, my love,
there is no way to put it into words.
My love, my love,
without you, I cannot exist.
Ah, the blessing given by God,
as soon as it reached my hands,
is breaking away from me.
Ha... aa... ha... aa
Ha... aa... ha... aa
On an island of loneliness,
my days are slipping by.
Girl, in my eyes,
only your face appears.
Ah... longing that one day you will return,
everything within me aches.
A mother understands
the mistakes of a little child;
will you forgive me just like that?
By letting this distance
grow even wider,
will you punish me? Tell me.
One day, time will whisper
my love into your ears.
Do not leave me, my life.
Do not leave me, my life.
If you walk away, won't it depart,
this life of mine?
Oho... oh...
Before getting to know me, my sweet parrot,
do not fly away outside.
If you leave, won't it depart at once,
my very life?
Oh... oh...
Mmm... mm... mmm... mmm...
Mmm... mm... mmm... mm... mm...
My life...
Mmm... mm... mmm... mmm...
Mmm... mm... mmm... mm... mm...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Vilagaadhae Enadhuyirae from the movie Oru Kuppai Kadhai is an emotionally charged sad ballad centered on heartbreak, regret, and desperation caused by separation from one's beloved. The protagonist pleads with his partner not to abandon him, expressing that his existence is meaningless without her. He compares himself to a person lost in a dark pathless forest and a young child seeking a mother's forgiveness, holding onto hope that time will eventually reveal the sincerity of his love to her.
