{Enn thaayennum kovilai Kaakka maranthitta
Paaviyadi kiliyae Enn vaayum vairaiyum
pottri valarthitta Paaviyadi kiliyae} (2)
Enna thottaalum paarthaalum Thoshamadi kiliyae
Enakku ezhezhu jenmathilum Motcham illai kiliyae
Enn thaayennum kovilai Kaakka maranthitta
Paaviyadi kiliyae Enn vaayum vairaiyum
pottri valarthitta Paaviyadi kiliyae…
{Buththimathi sollayilae Thatti sendra paaviyadi
Vittuvittu ponapinnae Veguthu enn aaviyadi} (2)
Ododi paadupatten Naalellaam yaar yaarkko
Seraamal ponathadi Serththathu thaayaarkko
Peththa manam Ennavendru thonaliyae
Pogaiyilae sollivittu pogaliyae Ini aatridavum thettridavum
Annai pola yaaru
Enn thaayennum kovilai Kaakka maranthitta
Paaviyadi kiliyae Enn vaayum vairaiyum
pottri valarthitta Paaviyadi kiliyae…
{Than vayira pattini pottu Enn uyira valaththavalae
Thannanthaniyaa irunthu Enna karai serththavalae} (2)
Noyaalae naan paduththa Nonbirukkum aaththaa
Theemoondu theernthidumaa Namm kanakku aaththaa
Peththavala thallivacha Paavaththukkae
Pakkamvanthu kollivaikka koodaliyae Ennai aatridavum thettridavum
Annai pola yaaru
Enn thaayennum kovilai Kaakka maranthitta
Paaviyadi kiliyae Enn vaayum vairaiyum

{Enna thottaalum paarthaalum Thoshamadi kiliyae
Enakku ezhezhu jenmathilum Motcham illai kiliyae} (2)
Song Meaning & Analysis
The song "En Thaayenum Kovilai" from 'Aranmanai Kili' is a poignant lament of a son filled with deep regret and guilt over his neglect of his mother. The lyrics portray the mother as a sacred temple, whose protection the son failed to uphold, instead prioritizing his own selfish needs. He acknowledges his sinfulness, believing that he is cursed and will find no salvation even in countless future lives. The song vividly describes the mother's sacrifices – starving herself to feed him, raising him alone, and fasting for his well-being – contrasting them with the son's ingratitude and eventual abandonment.
The emotional core of the song lies in the son's profound sorrow after his mother's passing. He regrets not heeding her advice, the burning anguish of his soul after she left without a word, and the realization that all his hard work never benefited her. The ultimate tragedy is his inability to perform her last rites, a consequence of his past actions. The repeated plea, "Who is there to console and comfort me like a mother now?", underscores his irreplaceable loss and the eternal void left by her absence, making it a powerful ode to maternal love and a cautionary tale of filial duty.
