Karunai ullamae illaiyaa Jagaththinil kanintha
Nenjamae illaiyaa Karunai ullamae illaiyaa
Jagaththinil kanintha Nenjamae illaiyaa
Karunai ullamae illaiyaa
Thanthai thaai izhanthu Vaattam kollum
Siru pillaigal Puvikkae paaram aavathaa
Thanthai thaai izhanthu Vaattam kollum
Siru pillaigal Puvikkae paaram aavathaa
Karunai ullamae illaiyaa Jagaththinil kanintha
Nenjamae illaiyaa
Komaathaathaan paalloottum maathaa Poodevithaan thaalaattum maathaa
Komaathaathaan paalloottum maathaa Poodevithaan thaalaattum maathaa
Sooriya chandhirarae panthukkalae Sooriya chandhirarae panthukkalae
Intha jegamellaam Piriyamaana illangal thaanae
Karunai ullamae illaiyaa Jagaththinil kanintha
Nenjamae illaiyaa
Aasai paasam pesunth thendralae Anaathai kisikkalin sinegithanae
Aasai paasam pesunth thendralae Anaathai kisikkalin sinegithanae
Niththirai thaayin Miruthu karangalitho
Niththirai thaayin Miruthu karangalitho
Thunbam maranthidum thunaigalae
Karunai ullamae illaiyaa Jagaththinil kanintha
Nenjamae illaiyaa
Aakarunai ullamae illaiyaa…
Song Meaning & Analysis
This poignant song from the 1955 film 'Jaya Gopi' is a heartfelt plea for compassion and humanity, particularly towards orphaned children. The lyrics question the absence of kindness in the world, asking if there are no sympathetic hearts left to care for those who have lost their parents. It highlights the vulnerability of these children and challenges the notion that they should become a burden to society, emphasizing their inherent right to care and belonging.
The song beautifully extends the concept of motherhood and kinship beyond human relations, portraying Mother Cow as a provider of sustenance, Mother Earth as a nurturer, and even the Sun and Moon as relatives. It suggests that the entire world should be a loving home for everyone. The lyrics then invoke the gentle breeze as a friend to orphans and personify sleep as a comforting mother whose soft hands can make sorrows disappear, offering a glimmer of hope and solace amidst the despair.
