Ah, what really is happiness?
எதுதான் இங்க சந்தோஷம்
அட எது தான் சந்தோஷம்
எதுதான் இங்க சந்தோஷம்
அட எது தான் சந்தோஷம்
In a colorless life,
finding a way forward is happiness.
On a parched land gazing at the sky,
the falling of rain is happiness.
வண்ணமில்லா வாழ்க்கையில
வழி கிடச்சா சந்தோஷம்
வானம் பாத்த பூமியில
மழ விழுந்தா சந்தோஷம்
For bees that go searching,
finding flowers is happiness.
When all unnecessary baggage,
gets cleared away, that itself is happiness.
தேடிப்போகும் தேனிக்கெல்லாம்
பூக்கள் கிடச்சா சந்தோஷம்
தேவையில்லா ஆணியெல்லாம்
களஞ்சாலே சந்தோஷம்
Ah, what truly is happiness here?

அட எதுதான் இங்க சந்தோஷம்
அட எதுன் சந்தோஷம்
அட எதுதான் இங்க சந்தோஷம்
அட எதுதான் சந்தோஷம்
While traveling over rough, uneven paths,
in an old, creaky cart,
if you detach the alignment pin,
carrying just one wheel brings no benefit.

Everyone here has their own version of justice,
if you keep listening to everyone, how can you live?
Above everyone here, there is only one sky,
if you close your eyes, you won't even see that.
மேடு தாண்டி போகயில
பாண்டா முட்டும் வண்டியில
கோட்டர் அத வீட்டவிட்டு
ஓரெடுத்தா லாபம் இல்ல
If everything you wished for came true,
why would God be needed here?
Just cherish whatever you have been blessed with,
that alone is enough to live your life.
ஆளுக்கொரு நியாயம் இங்க
அத கேட்டிருந்தா வாழ்வதெங்க
யாருக்கும் மேல இங்க ஒன்னுதான் வானம்
கண்ண நீ மூடிக்கிட்டா அத கூட காணும்
This is a brand new happiness,
this is an inexplicable happiness,
a unique kind of happiness that has arrived,
from now on, every day is happiness!
நினெச்சதெல்லாம் நடந்து புட்டா
ஆண்டவன் இங்கெதுக்கு
கிடச்சதெல்லாம் நினச்சிபாரு
அது போதும் வாழ்வதற்கு
In a life full of colors,
finding a way forward is happiness.
On a parched land gazing at the sky,
the falling of rain is happiness.
இது புதுசா வந்த சந்தோசம்
இது புரியாத சந்தோஷம்
ஒரு தினுசா வந்த சந்தோஷம்
இனி தினந்தாம் சந்தோஷம்
For bees that go searching,
finding flowers is happiness.
When all unnecessary distractions,
are cleared away, that is happiness.
வண்ணமில்லா வாழ்க்கையில
வழி கிடச்சா சந்தோஷம்
வானம் பாத்த பூமியில
மழ விழுந்தா சந்தோஷம்
Ah, what truly is happiness here?
Ah, what really is happiness?
Ah, what truly is happiness here?
Ah, what really is happiness?

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Yedhudhaan Inga Sandhosam' from the movie Lucky Man (2023) is a philosophical yet upbeat song that explores the simple, practical definition of happiness. It ponders what truly constitutes joy in everyday existence, concluding that happiness is found in basic realizations and perspective—like rain falling on dry earth, bees finding flowers, or simply clearing away unnecessary worries ('thevaiyilla aani'). The song reminds us that life doesn't require perfection; appreciating what we already have brings true contentment. The lyrics advise ignoring conflicting societal opinions and avoiding overthinking. It subtly asserts that if every human wish came true instantly, divine force would lose its significance. Blending wisdom with a cheerful folk-pop tempo, the track conveys a lighthearted perspective on fate, resilience, and finding daily peace.
