April mayilae Pasumaiyae illae
Kaanji pochuda Indha oorum pudikkalae
Ulagam pudikkalae Boru boruda

Idhu thevaya Ada pongayya
June july yaa…

Pattaamboochigal Parakkudhu parakkudhu
Kannaamoochigal Nadakkudhu nadakkudhu
Pachai pasumaigal Theriyudhu theriyudhu
Azhagu kiligal Namadhu vizhiyil valam varudhae

April mayilae Pasumaiyae illae
Kaanji pochuda Indha oorum pudikkalae
Ulagam pudikkalae Boru boruda

Kurta maxiyum Salwar kameezum
Sumandha pengalae Ha ha ha ha

Engae endruthaan Ingae indruthaan
Varundhum kangalae Haiyo haiyo haiyo haiyo

Veettil nirkura Kaaval kaararum
Morachi paarkuraar Aam …aamaaa

Solakkollayin Bommai polavae
Verachi pogiraar Ada da da da da da

Drive-in hotel-um Santhom beach-um
Dull-aai thondruthae paarungal Panneer pookkalai paarkathindru
Kanneer vaarkirom naangal

Nenjam thaanguma Kangal thoonguma
Thunbam neenguma

April mayilae Pasumaiyae illae
Kaanji pochuda Indha oorum pudikkalae
Ulagam pudikkalae Boru boruda

College azhagiyum Convent kumariyum

Taxi driver-um Paarthu paathudhaan
Meter poduvaar Dududoo doo doo

Kaalai maalaithaan Velai paarppavar
Magizhchi kolgiraar Hahahahaaaa

Vaalai kumarigal Saalai kadakkayil
Vaayai pilakuraar Ada da da da da da

Stella mary’s-um Queen mary’s-um
Thendral veesidum poonthottam Vanji paavaigal thondrum pothu
Nenjam poduthae aattam

Engal paaduthaan Sakkai poduthaan
Badaa joruthaan

April mayilae Pasumaiyae illae
Kaanji pochuda Indha oorum pudikkalae
Ulagam pudikkalae Boru boruda

Idhu thevaya Ada pongayya

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song vividly captures the ennui and longing experienced during the summer months of April and May, particularly from the perspective of young men. The lyrics lament the lack of greenery, the perceived dullness of the city, and a general sense of boredom, expressing a strong dislike for the season. This feeling is amplified by the absence of young women, who are typically away from colleges and public spaces during these months, leaving popular spots like beaches and hotels feeling empty and unappealing.

The mood shifts from despair to anticipation and eventual joy as the song progresses. It initially paints a picture of an ideal, vibrant natural world with butterflies and parrots, perhaps a dream or a longing for better times. Later verses celebrate the return of college and convent girls, whose presence revitalizes the city, bringing excitement to theatres, making taxi drivers happy, and causing hearts to dance. The song concludes with a triumphant declaration that the dull period is over, and life, along with its youthful charm, has returned, making everything fun and successful again.
