Yaar vazhiyil yaar mozhiyil yaar thunaiyil
Vidaigal vandhu serumo
Yaar vidhiyil yaar sadhiyil yaar madhiyil
Thadaigal vandhu nerumo
Theervugal indriyae payanam thaan neezhumo
Thodarndhidum thunbathai idhayam thaan thangumo
Etthisai emakkena vidiyal thanai kaatumo
Evvazhi nambikai nammai vandhu serumo
Edhuvum kadandhu pogum
Ena ninaithom yaavum poidhaano
Vidhiyae vendru theerum
Ena padithom yaavum meidhaano
Yaaridam muraiyida yaarumillai vidaiyai sollida
Yaaro thodarndha vazhakku
Vidiyal dhanai tharuma namakku
Paavam namadhu izhakku
Nadai thalarndhu mudamaai kidakku
Munvinai enbadhu pinvinai thedumo
Oru vazhi padhaiyil vazhkai dhaan odumo
Kaaranam yaarendru kadavulai ketpadha
Kalathai ketpadha yaar ingu pesuvaar
Aagayam pola thaan adangadha kelvigal
Vidai theda theda thaan virisalgal nooru
Pala neram vazhkkaiku baliyaagum maanudam
Paripona yaavaiyum kidaikaadhu meendum
Naalaigal enbadhu edhuvaraiyil neezhumo
Nambikkai keetrugal adhu varaiyil vaazhumo
Silandhiyin koodena sindhanaigal yaavumae
Sikkalgalil adudhae sidhari dhaan pogudhae
Ezhudhadha nadagam iyakkuvadhu yaaringae
Mudivenna enbadhum yaar solvaro
Theriyaadha paadhaiyil puriyaadha thedalgal
Engengo pogudhae vidai ingu illayae
Edhuvum kadandhu pogum

Yaaridam muraiyida yaarumillai vidaiyai sollida
Yaaro thodarndha vazhakku
Vidiyal dhanai tharuma namakku

Yaar vazhiyil yaar mozhiyil yaar thunaiyil
Vidaigal vandhu serumo
Yaar vidhiyil yaar sadhiyil yaar madhiyil
Thadaigal vandhu nerumo
Through whose path, in whose words, with whose support,
will the answers ever reach us?
In whose fate, through whose plot, by whose mind,
do these obstacles come upon us?
Will this journey just stretch on without any resolution?
Can the heart endure this unending sorrow?
Which direction will show a dawn meant for us?
Along which path will hope ever find us?
"This too shall pass,"
we thought—was all of that a lie?
"Fate will surely win in the end,"
we read—is that the only truth?
Whom can we appeal to? There is no one to give an answer.
This trial started by someone else,
will it ever bring a new dawn to us?
Pity our destination,
it falters in its steps and lies crippled.
Does past karma come searching for its consequence?
Does life just run along a one-way street?
Should we ask God who is the reason for this?
Should we ask Time? Who will speak here?
Limitless like the open sky, questions never end.
The more we search for answers, a hundred cracks appear.
So often, human life becomes a sacrifice to fate.
Whatever has been lost can never be regained.
How far will these tomorrows stretch on?
Will the faint rays of hope survive until then?
Like a spider's web, all our thoughts
get tangled in knots and shatter apart.
Who is directing this unwritten play here?
And who will say what the ending will be?
On an unknown path, baffling searches
wander everywhere, yet there is no answer here.
"This too shall pass,"
we thought—was all of that a lie?
"Fate will surely win in the end,"
we read—is that the only truth?
Whom can we appeal to? There is no one to give an answer.
This trial started by someone else,
will it ever bring a new dawn to us?
Pity our destination,
it falters in its steps and lies crippled.
Through whose path, in whose words, with whose support,
will the answers ever reach us?
In whose fate, through whose plot, by whose mind,
do these obstacles come upon us?
