Sonnaalum vetkam aiyaa Vaazhkkai enna vaazhkkai
Sollaadha dhukkam aiyaa Innum enna thaevai
Yaaridam povaen en kadhai solvaen Illaram nallaram enbadhae poiyaa
Sonnaalum vetkam aiyaa Vaazhkkai enna vaazhkkai
Sollaadha dhukkam aiyaa Innum enna thaevai
Thirumanam enbadhae iru manam saervadhu
Oru manam maarinaal vaazhvu enna aavadhu
Paarvaigal maarinaal kaatchiyum maaralaam
Kangalae maarinaal paadhai engae povadhu
Anbudan naan vaazha thaedi vandha devi
Indru naan poraada saedhi sonna paavi
Illaram nallaram enbadhae poiyaa
Sonnaalum vetkam aiyaa Vaazhkkai enna vaazhkkai
Sollaadha dhukkam aiyaa Innum enna thaevai
Aa…aa…aaa…aa…
Oru vazhi paadhaiyil selbavar manadhilae
Suyanalam valarumae sondha bandham maraiyumae
Pagalinil kanavugal kaanbavar vaazhvilae
Unmaigal puriyumaa nanmai theemai theriyumaa
Otrumai naan kaana yaetri vaittha dheepam
Vaetrumai thaan kaana ponadhae laabam
Illaram nallaram enbadhae poiyaa
Sonnaalum vetkam aiyaa Vaazhkkai enna vaazhkkai
Sollaadha dhukkam aiyaa Innum enna thaevai
Yaaridam povaen en kadhai solvaen Illaram nallaram enbadhae poiyaa
Sonnaalum vetkam aiyaa Vaazhkkai enna vaazhkkai
Sollaadha dhukkam aiyaa Innum enna thaevai
Song Meaning & Analysis
This song delves into the profound sorrow and disillusionment of a man whose marital life has turned bitter. He expresses deep shame and unspoken grief over the state of his relationship, questioning the very essence of what life has become. The lyrics poignantly reflect on the traditional ideal of marriage as a union of two hearts, contrasting it with the painful reality when one partner's feelings or intentions change, leading to a complete loss of direction and purpose. He laments the betrayal by the one he once considered a 'goddess,' now a 'sinner' who has brought him immense struggle.
The song further explores the themes of selfishness and its corrosive effect on relationships, suggesting that those who pursue a 'one-way path' lose sight of genuine connections and moral clarity. The protagonist's initial hope for unity, symbolized by a lit lamp, has tragically yielded only discord. He repeatedly questions the adage that domestic life is inherently good, finding it to be a lie in his own experience. The song is a heartfelt cry of despair, seeking solace and understanding in a world where his most cherished bond has shattered.
