Kaadu medu thedi odi
Running through forests and hills in search
Iru vizhi iru vizhi tholaithu vitten
I lost both my eyes along the way
Ingae ingae nee varuvaai endru
Believing you will come here, here

From the tiny eyes that spill
Thuligalil thuligalil uyir valarpen
In those drops, I will nurture my life
Tholainda en kangalai parthathum koduthu vittai
You returned my lost eyes when you saw them
Kangalai koduthu idhayathai eduthuvittai
But by giving eyes, you took my heart
Ithayathai tholaithadharka en jeevan edukkirai
For losing my heart, will you take my life too?

Oodal vendam odalghal vendam
No sulking, no quarrels
Osaiyodu naadham pola
Like sound blending with melody
Uyirilae uyirilae kalandhu vidu
Mix into my soul, into my life
Kaneer vendam kaayangal vendam
No tears, no wounds
Aaru matha pillai pola
Like a six-month-old child
Madiyilae madiyilae urangividu
Sleep peacefully in my lap
Nila varum neram natchathiram thevai illai
When the moon appears, stars aren’t needed
Nee vandha neram nenjil oru oodal illai
When you came, there was no conflict in my heart
Vanna pookal verkkum munne varachollu thendralai
Call the breeze before the colorful flowers wilt
Varachollu thendralai
Call the breeze to come
Thamarayae thamarayae neeril oliyaadhae
O lotus, O lotus, don’t hide in the water
Nee neeril oliyaadhae
Don’t conceal yourself in the water
Dhinam dhinam oru sooriyan pola varuven varuven
Every day, like the sun, I will come
Anudinam unnai aaryiram kaiyyal thoduven thoduven
Each moment, I will touch you with a thousand hands
Sooriyanae sooriyanae thamarai mugavari thevai illai
O sun, O sun, the lotus needs no address
Vinnil neeyum irundukondae viral neeti thirakkirai
You stay in the sky and open it by stretching your rays
Marangothiyae marangothiyae manadhai kothi thulai iduvai
O woodpecker, you peck and pierce the heart
