ezhu swarangalukkul enthanai paadal

 Yezhu swarangalukkul – a fantastic song, apparently done in five minutes. 


Yezhu swarangalukkul, ethanai paadal 

Idhaya surangathul ethanai kelvi 

Kaanum manidharukkul ethanai salanam 

Verum karpanai sandoshathil

avanadhu gavanam 


How many songs in seven notes

How many questions in the tunnel that’s one’s heart

How many temptations in the people you see

In empty imaginary pleasures lies his attention 


Kaalai ezhundha vudan 

naalaiya kelvi

Adhu kayyil kidaitha pinbum

Thudikkudhu aavi

Yaen endra klei ondru 

Endraikkum thangum

Manidhan inba thunbam edhilum

Kelvi than minjum


The moment you wake up in the morning

There is the question of tomorrow

When it (the answer) comes into your hand

Heart yearns for more

‘Why’ is a question that will linger forever

In every sorrow and happiness

Question is all that will remain


Yenakkaga nee azhalam iyarkail nadakkum 

Nee enakkaga unavu unna eppadi nadakkum

Namakendru boomiyile kadamaigal undu 

Adhai namakkaga nam kayyal seivadhu nandru 


You can cry on my behalf, it’s possible (in nature)

How can you eat for me? 

We all have our duties to perform 

It is best if we do

them ourselves with our hands


Aarambathil pirappum un kayil illai 

Pinbu aduthaduthu nadakkum, un kayil illai 

Paadhai vagutha pinbu bayanddhenna laabam

Adhil payanam nadhi vidu, maraindhidum paavam 

In the beginning, birth isn’t in your hands 


Then one thing happens after another, that’s not in your hands either

Once you’ve decided on a path, what’s the point in getting scared?

Walk that path and the sins will disappear



Naalai pozhudhondru undu adhu namakkena vaazhgha 

Adhai nadatha oruvanundu koilil kanga 

Velai pirakkum endru nambikkai kolga 

Endha

vedhanayum maarum megathai pole 


There is tomorrow, live in the belief that it’s for us

There’s someone to guide it, find Him in the temple 

Believe that your time will come 

Because every sorrow is like the shifting clouds
