| Yaadho dhisai neeyum sera | As you head towards some unknown direction, |
| Thodhaagudho | Is it becoming convenient? |
| Yaaroyena un mugangal | Your faces changing like a stranger, |
| Veraagudhoo | Are they becoming different? |
| Nee thediya maayam ellam | Has all the magic you searched for |
| Kai serndhadhoo | Finally reached your hands? |
| Kai regaiyin kaattukullae adhu | Did it fall inside the jungle |
| Veezhndhadhoo | Of the lines on your palm? |
| Male | |

யாதோ திசை நீயும் சேர தோதாகுதோ
யாரோயென உன் முகங்கள் வேறாகுதோ
நீ தேடிய மாயம் எல்லாம் கை சேர்ந்ததோ
கைரேகையின் காட்டுக்குள்ளே அது வீழ்ந்ததோ
As you head towards some unknown direction,
Is it becoming convenient?
Your faces changing like a stranger,
Are they becoming different?
Has all the magic you searched for
Finally reached your hands?
Did it fall inside the jungle
Of the lines on your palm?
நிலை மறைந்தாய் அலை அணிந்தாய்
இன்னும் பேராட்டமா
தினம் பிறழும் உன் நடைகள்
உனை தாலாட்டுமா
You forgot your state and wore the waves,
Is it still a struggle?
Will your steps that falter every day
Lull you to sleep?
நிலை மறைந்தாய் அலை அணிந்தாய்
இன்னும் பேராட்டமா
தினம் பிறழும் உன் நடைகள்
உனை தாலாட்டுமா
You forgot your state and wore the waves,
Is it still a struggle?
Will your steps that falter every day
Lull you to sleep?
அந்த சிறுகுயில் தரும் அழுகுரல்
உன் திசைகளை காட்டாதோ
சில நிழல்களை நீ கடந்த பின்
புவி நிஜங்களை நீட்டாதோ
That little cuckoo bird's
Weeping cry,
Will it not show you your directions?
After you cross over
A few shadows,
Will the earth not offer you realities?
எதையடி நீ அடைந்தாய்
எதையடி நீ துறந்தாய்
எதுவரை நீ கடந்தாய்
உன் மனதினை அடைவாய்
What is it, girl, that you attained?
What is it, girl, that you renounced?
How far have you traversed?
You shall reach your own heart.
எதையடி நீ அடைந்தாய்
எதையடி நீ துறந்தாய்
எதுவரை நீ கடந்தாய்
உன் மனதினை அடைவாய்
What is it, girl, that you attained?
What is it, girl, that you renounced?
How far have you traversed?
You shall reach your own heart.
ஹா ...ஆஅ..ஆஅ
Haa... aaa... aa...
பூ விழும் வழியென யாராடி சொன்னது
தீ விழும் பாதைக்கு காலடி தந்தது
நேற்றெல்லாம் காற்றிலே கோலமாய் சேந்தது
நாளை உன் பிம்பமாய் கூடவே வந்தது
Who said to you
That it is a path where flowers fall?
Your feet stepped onto
A path where fire falls.
Yesterday all dissipated in the wind
Like a temporary pattern,
Tomorrow as your reflection
It came along with you.
யாரையோ நீக்கிட நீ இன்று கூண்டிலே
வாழ்க்கையோ பாசமாய் போடுதே தூண்டிலை
உன் மனம் பாரடி தீயினில் காந்தலே
உன்னை நீ சேரடி ஓவிய பாடலே
To distance someone,
You are in a cage today.
Life, with affection,
Casts a fishing hook.
Look at your heart, girl,
It burns in fire like a magnet.
Rejoin with yourself, girl,
Oh picturesque song!
எதையடி நீ அடைந்தாய்
எதையடி நீ துறந்தாய்
எதையடி நீ கறந்தாய்
உன் மனசினை அடைவாய்
What is it, girl, that you attained?
What is it, girl, that you renounced?
How far have you traversed?
You shall reach your own heart.
ஏதோ உன் பாதையோடு முட்கள் போடும்
ஏதோ உன் கால்தடத்தில் உன்னால் ஓடும்
நீ கொண்ட ஆசையெல்லாம் தூரம் போகும்
பூ நெஞ்சில் நாடகத்தில் ஊமையாகும்
Something along your path
Lays down thorns.
Something in your footsteps
Runs because of you.
All the desires you held
Will go far away.
In the drama inside a flower-like heart,
It becomes mute.
இது நீயா இது நீயா
இல்லை அடையாளமே
இது நீயே
மறையாத உன் புதுக்கோலமே
Is this you? Is this you?
Or just an identity?
This is indeed you,
Your unvanishing new form!
இது நீயா இது நீயா
இல்லை அடையாளமே
இது நீயே
மறையாத உன் புதுக்கோலமே
Is this you? Is this you?
Or just an identity?
This is indeed you,
Your unvanishing new form!
நிஜமாகவே துணை சேர
இனி வழிகள் கிடைக்காதே
நிழல் போலவே உனை உணரவே
ஒரு மாயம் நடக்காதோ
To truly find a companion,
Will there be no ways left now?
To feel yourself like a shadow,
Will a miracle not happen?

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song reflects a deeply emotional introspection of a woman facing existential confusion, personal struggle, and heartbreak. The narrator questions her journey—asking what she gained, what she sacrificed, and where her choices have brought her. It highlights her inner conflict as she tries to distance herself from feelings and relationships, feeling trapped in a metaphorical cage of her own making while navigating life's unexpected trials.
