Paal nilavu sooriyan pol suttathenna niyaayam
Pachcha kili thola koththi vanthathintha kaayam
Odi vantha vaigai nadhi kaanjathenna maayam
Kooda vazhi illai endrae aanathu penn paavam

Oru maalai Chandhiran malarai theduthu Malayadivaaraththilae
Ila maanai kandida kaanam paaduthu Manmatha raagaththilae

Kulir veesum maasiyilae oru aasai mogamadi
Adhu pesum paashaiyilae oru kadhal viragamadi
Oru thegam vendhathu moga theeyinilae aaaa

Oru maalai Chandhiran malarai theduthu Malayadivaaraththilae
Ila maanai kandida kaanam paaduthu Manmatha raagaththilae

Vennilavil thedugiraen kanni mugam kaanom
Punnagaiyum naan izhanthaen en manathil sogam
Chiththiraththai paarkka vanthaen karkuviyal kandaen
Then malaiyai pol irunthaen thennilangai aanaen

Chella kuyil koova mella varum megam
Sollil varum sogam gangai nadhi aagum

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song is a poignant expression of intense longing, separation, and the pain of unrequited or lost love. The lyrics use vivid imagery and metaphors to convey the protagonist's deep sorrow and yearning. The opening lines question the injustice of nature's elements turning against him (moon burning, river drying), symbolizing the world reflecting his inner turmoil. He feels wounded and lost, comparing his search for his beloved to an evening moon seeking a flower or a young deer, singing a song of love and despair. The recurring theme is a desperate search for a lost love, with the protagonist feeling consumed by passion and sorrow.

The song delves deeper into the protagonist's emotional state, describing how he has lost his smile and found only sorrow. He feels his existence has been reduced to ruins, like a mountain turning into a burnt Lanka. The imagery of a cuckoo's song bringing clouds and sorrow turning into a river highlights the overwhelming nature of his grief. His quest for his beloved is likened to diving for pearls in the deep sea, where he risks everything but still finds nothing. The lyrics powerfully convey a sense of incompleteness and burning desire, emphasizing that his very being depends on the return of his beloved, without whom his body feels like fire.
