Translation of Oru Kadhal Devadhai Boomiyil Lyrics
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Oru kaadhal kaviyam
A poem of love
Kaiyodu thandhaal
She placed into my hands
Kallurum kaalai velaiyil
In this dew-fresh morning time
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Oru kaadhal kaviyam
A poem of love
Kaiyodu thandhaal
She placed into my hands
Kallurum kaalai velaiyil
In this dew-fresh morning time
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Pookkalin karuvaraiyil
In the womb of flowers
Pirandhaval neeya
Were you the one who was born?
Poovukkoru poojai seiyya
To worship that flower
Pirandhavan naan illaiya
Wasn’t I the one born for that?
Idhayathin thamaraiyil
In the lotus of my heart
Iruppavan neeya
Are you the one who lives there?
Thamaraikul veedukatti
Building a home inside that lotus
Thandhaval naan illaiya
Wasn’t it me who gave it to you?
Ododi vandhadhaal
Since you came running to me
Ulmoochu vaangudhu
My breath is catching inside
Un moochil allavaa
Isn’t it within your breath
En moochum ulladhu
That my breath also exists?
Ondranadhu
They have become one
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Oru kaadhal kaviyam
A poem of love
Kaiyodu thandhaal
She placed into my hands
Kallurum kaalai velaiyil
In this dew-fresh morning time
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Yaarukku yaar uravu
Who belongs to whom
Yaar arivaro
Who really knows?
En peyaril un peyarai
Within my name, your name
Eyarkaiyum ezhuthiyadho
Did even nature write it?
Pon magal moochu vittal
When the golden girl breathes out
Poo malaraadho
Won’t the flowers bloom?
Poo magalin vaaimozhiyae
The words of that flower-like girl
Poojaikku vedhangalo
Are they not sacred hymns of worship?
Kalluri vaazhkaiyil
In this college life
Kaadhal yen vandhadhu
Why did love arrive?
Agayam engilum
Even in the sky
Eeram yaar thandhadhu
Who gave this moisture?
Iyalbanadhu
It happened naturally
Oru kaadhal devathai
An angel of love
Boomiyil vandhaal
Has come down to this earth
Oru kaadhal kaviyam
A poem of love
Kaiyodu thandhaal
She placed into my hands
Kallurum kaalai velaiyil
In this dew-fresh morning time
Lala lala laala laa…
Lala lala laala laa…
Laaa lala laaa laaa…
Laaa lala laaa laaa…
Lala lala laala laa…
Lala lala laala laa…
Laaa lala laaa laaa…
