Ellam nadaga medai Idhil engum nadigar kottam
Uruvam therivadhu pola Avar ullam therivadhu illai
Ellam nadaga medai Idhil engum nadigar kottam
Uruvam therivadhu pola Avar ullam therivadhu illai
Ellam nadaga medai Idhil engum nadigar kottam
Parppadhai ariyaen paarkka vaithaaiyae
Paal pol manadhai keduthaval neeyae
Paaduvadhariyaen paada vaithaaiyae
Paadalai paadhiyil nee mudithaaiyae
Ellam nadaga medai Idhil engum nadigar kottam
Uruvam therivadhu pola Avar ullam therivadhu illai
Ellam nadaga medai Idhil engum nadigar kottam
Vedikkai ulagam selvargal illam Vedikkai ulagam selvargal illam

Song Meaning & Analysis
This song, "Ellam Nadaga Medai" (All is a Stage Play), is a profound philosophical reflection on life's deceptive nature and societal inequalities. Penned by the legendary Kannadasan, the lyrics portray the world as a grand theatrical stage where everyone is an actor, their true intentions and feelings hidden behind a facade. The singer laments how he was drawn into this 'play,' his innocent heart corrupted, and his journey abruptly cut short by someone. It speaks to the disillusionment one feels when faced with the superficiality of human interactions, where outward appearances rarely reflect inner truths.
The song further highlights the stark contrast between the lives of the rich and the poor, describing the wealthy's world as one of amusement and the poor's as one of sorrow. It touches upon the changing dynamics of relationships, where a friend might be seen as a queen in ignorance, but once reality sets in, she becomes merely a companion to a true queen, implying a loss of equal standing or innocence. The poignant lines about truth and falsehood, and a small heart being broken, convey a deep sense of betrayal and resignation. The song concludes with a plea for forgiveness and a farewell, urging the 'palace statue' (perhaps a metaphor for a beautiful but unfeeling beloved or society) to forget the past, encapsulating a melancholic acceptance of life's harsh realities.
