யாரோ யாரோ இதுவோ
இதயம் தனில்
புதிதாய் திறவும் கதவோ
Who is this, who is this?
Within the heart,
Is this a door opening anew?
உலரும் உலரும் மனதில்
புரியாவிதம் பரவும் ஈரம் எதுவோ
In a heart that rambles in dryness,
In an incomprehensible way,
What is this moisture that is spreading?
அளவும் இல்லை உன் வயதும் இல்லை
உன் அன்பே உந்தன் உயரம் சொல்லும்
There is no measure,
Nor is there an age limit for you,
Only your love speaks of your stature.
சொந்தம் இல்லை உன் ரத்தம் இல்லை
ஆனாலும் உள்ளம் பாசம் கொள்ளும்
There is no kinship,
No shared blood,
And yet, the heart feels affection.
கடும் கரும் பாறைக்குள்
புகுந்திடும் வேரொன்று
எதிர் எதிர் பார்க்காமல்
துளிர் விடும் ஆனந்த கண்ணீராய்
மாறா தூறா
Inside a hard, dark rock,
A root penetrates,
Unexpectedly,
It sprouts like tears of joy,
Unchanging,
Drizzling continuously,
உயிரின் பொருள் அறியாமல்
பொருளின் உயிர் அறிந்தாயா
இதனை இனிமேல் இவன் என்பாயோ
Without knowing the meaning of life,
Did you understand the life within an object?
Will you refer to 'this' as 'him' from now on?
தனிமை எனும் சொல் இல்லை
இனிமேல் அதில் பயன் இல்லை
இவனும் இனி உன் மகன் என்பாயா
The word 'solitude' exists no more,
From now on, there is no fear in it.
Will you call him too,
Your son from now on?
மரபணு தரவில்லையெனில் மகன் இல்லையா
அவனது மின் உணர்வுகள் உணர்வில்லையா
If he didn't give DNA,
Is he not a son?
Are his electrical feelings,
Not real feelings?
மண்ணோடு உண்டாகி மண் சேர்வது
யார் உண்மை யார் பொம்மை யார் சொல்வது
Formed from the earth,
And returning to the soil,
Who is real, who is a doll,
Who can say?
தலை கோதிடும் தாயாக
விளையாடிடும் சேயாக
துயரில் துணையாய் இவன் ஆனானோ
Like a mother stroking your hair,
Like a playful child,
A companion in sorrow,
Has he become all this?
அறிவூட்டும் தீயாக
வால் ஆட்டிடும் நாயாக
தோழன் தோளாய் இவன் ஆனானோ
Like an enlightening fire,
Like a dog wagging its tail,
A friend's shoulder,
Has he become all this?
கடவுளின் உருவத்தில் ஒரு சேவகனாய்
உனக்கென உயிர் தரும் ஒரு காவலனாய்
In the image of God,
As a servant,
Giving his life for you,
As a guardian,
அதிகாலை கீற்றாக துயில் நீக்குவான்
விழி மூடி தலை சாய தாலாட்டுவான்
Like a ray of early morning light,
He dispels sleep,
When you close your eyes and lay your head,
He sings a lullaby.
யாரோ யாரோ இதுவோ இதயம் தனில்
புதிதாய் திறவும் கதவோ
Who is this, who is this?
Within the heart,
Is this a door opening anew?
உலரும் உலரும் மனதில்
புரியாவிதம் பரவும் ஈரம் எதுவோ
In a heart that rambles in dryness,
In an incomprehensible way,
What is this moisture that is spreading?
Yaro yaro idhuvo
Who is this, who is this?
Idhayam thanil
Within the heart,
Pudhithaai thiravum kadhavo
Is this a door opening anew?
Ularum ularum manadhil
In a heart that rambles in dryness,
Puriyaavidham
In an incomprehensible way,
Paravum eeram edhuvo
What is this moisture that is spreading?
Alavum illai
There is no measure,
Un vayadhum illai
Nor is there an age limit for you,
Un anbe unthan uyaram sollum
Only your love speaks of your stature.
Sondham illai
There is no kinship,
Un raththam illai
No shared blood,
Aanalum ullam paasam kollum
And yet, the heart feels affection.
Kadum karum paaraikul
Inside a hard, dark rock,
Pugunthidum verondru
A root penetrates,
Edhir edhir paarkkaamal
Unexpectedly,
Thulir vidum aanandha kanneeraai
It sprouts like tears of joy,
Maaraa
Unchanging,
Thooraa
Drizzling continuously,
Uyirin porul ariyaamal
Without knowing the meaning of life,
Porulin uyir arindhaaya
Did you understand the life within an object?

Will you refer to 'this' as 'him' from now on?
Thanimai enum sol illai
The word 'solitude' exists no more,
Inimel adhil bayan illai
From now on, there is no fear in it.
Ivanum ini un
Will you call him too,
Magan enbaaya
Your son from now on?
Marabanu tharavillaiyenil
If he didn't give DNA,
Magan illaiya
Is he not a son?

Are his electrical feelings,
Unarvillaiya
Not real feelings?
Mannodu undaagi
Formed from the earth,
Man servathu
And returning to the soil,
Yaar unmai yaar bommai
Who is real, who is a doll,
Yaar solvathu..
Who can say?

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Yaro Yaro Idhuvo' from Koogle Kuttappa explores the unexpected emotional bond formed between a lonely elderly man and a humanoid robot. It raises deep philosophical questions about family, affection, and consciousness, asking whether love and parenthood are strictly defined by genetics and blood, or if an artificial creation capable of empathy and care can truly be embraced as a son.

Metaphor & Role Reversal
“Uyirin porul ariyaamal / Porulin uyir arindhaaya”
Plays on 'uyir' (life/soul) and 'porul' (object/meaning), contrasting the robot's physical nature as an object with its unexpected capacity to exhibit life and soul.
Simile (Uvamai Ani)
“Thalai kodhidum thaayaaga / Vilaiyaadidum seyaaga”
Compares the robot's supportive and loving gestures to that of a mother caressing her child and a playful toddler.
Monai (Initial Rhyme / Alliteration)
“Yaro yaro idhuvo / Idhayam thanil”
Repetition of the initial vowel sound 'I' ('idhuvo' / 'idhayam') across consecutive lines.
Ethugai (Second-letter Rhyme)
“Sondham illai / Un raththam illai”
The second consonant sound 'th' ('so-n-dham' / 'ra-th-tham') rhymes between the lines.
