Music of the yazh (ancient harp), sweetest taste,
Flower-soft wings, vast open sky,
As I melt and sing this way,
Come seek my soul, so I
May overflow and flow free.
Endless dream of magic,
Deepest memory,
High above in the sky, endless horizon,
For me to live in this world only for you,
Come join me,
So I can truly come alive.
Floating along in a freshwater spring,
Just like a leaf,
I will keep following only you,
I will cross through time just for you.
Weaving softly through the breeze,
Just like a brilliant light,
I will stay bound to you across every lifetime,
I will blend even into your dreams.
I am the lotus,
And only because of you, my sun,
I live upon this earth.
Like Andal (poet-saint devoted in love) in a village,
As long as love exists,
I will love you that long.
As your heart desires,
Come, shape me for days on end,
Craft me like a story.
Come, oh come, sweet longing,
You who protect me,
Come, blooming even in fire.

Uruvagam (Metaphor)

Thamarai naane naane / Aadhavan unnal thaane

Metaphorically compares the speaker to a lotus that blooms solely because of her beloved, who is metaphorically the sun.

Iyaipu (Rhyme / End Rhyme)

Unai matum thaane thodarnthu iruppen / Unakkena kaalam kadanthu iruppen

The end of consecutive lines rhyme using 'iruppen' (I will remain).

Oxymoron / Paradox

Vaa neruppil pookkum
