Nalla veenai idhae Nalla veenai idhae
Mannilae nalangeda erivaayo Ammaa allaal vaazhvinilae
Allaal vaazhvinilae Anbenum amuthai arulvaayo
Amma nalla veenai idhae
Vanthathu vasantham Vaazhvin kuyil paaduthae
Vaiyaththil kaalam Vaanil vilaiyaaduthae
Vanthathu vasantham Vaazhvin kuyil paaduthae
Vaiyaththil kaalam Vaanil vilaiyaaduthae
Enthanin nenjamo Yaengiyae vaaduthae
Yaengiyae vaaduthae Iravum pagalum
Kanneeraal oduthe
Amma nalla veenai idhae
Velli nilaavinilaeaa… Velli nilaavinilae
Kalangam veedhiyunil mun jolikkum
Mullin naduvinilae Mullin naduvinilae
Rojavum mugam kaattiyae Thaen suvai oottiyae sirikkum
Nalla veenai idhae Anbin dheepam idhae
Kurudaai anaivatho kaattrinilae
Chinnajchiru padake Chinnajchiru padake
Vellam saervatho aattrinilae
Nalla veenai idhae Mannilae nalangeda erivaayo
Nalla veenai idhae
Song Meaning & Analysis
The song "Nalla Veenai Idhe Mannile" is a poignant and philosophical reflection on life, love, and the human condition. The singer metaphorically refers to life or the human body as a 'good veena' (a musical instrument), questioning if such a precious gift will simply waste away in the earth without fulfilling its purpose or experiencing true love. It expresses a deep yearning for affection and meaning, contrasting the vibrant, joyful passage of time and nature (spring, singing cuckoos) with the personal sorrow and longing felt by the individual.
The lyrics further explore themes of hope and resilience, noting how even imperfections can be highlighted (blemish in moonlight) and how beauty and sweetness can emerge from adversity (rose amidst thorns). Despite these observations, there's an underlying anxiety about the fragility of love and existence, likening it to a lamp of love being extinguished by the wind or a tiny boat being overwhelmed by a flood. The song is a heartfelt plea for love and purpose, asking if this 'good veena' will be blessed with the nectar of love or simply perish without it.
