Aaro Arikeyitharo Lyrics Translation (from “Grrr”)
B.K. Harinarayanan compares the presence to wind closing a door without leaving. He asks if ‘we’ will flow like two riverbanks—separate but always together on the same journey. The song portrays love as a silent connection that transcends physical distance.
Aaro ArikeyitharoIs someone drawing near?
Kaana Kadhayude ChaareyBeside an untold story,
Mizhi Nerthu Nerthu Veenu Poya Neramjust as my eyes slowly drifted shut.
Piriyaathe Vaathil Chaari Vanna KaatteOh wind, you came and closed the door without ever leaving,
Oru Vaakkume Parayaathewithout saying even a word.
ArikayethunnathaareWho is it that’s drawing near?
Hridhaya Thaalagal Nira Nila OnnuUpon my heart’s rhythms, like a full moon,
Thalodunnathaaranewho is it that’s gently caressing them?
Ee Himagalo NanayaatheyWithout getting soaked by this winter mist,
Iravilo Veenidaathewithout falling in the night,
Iru Thalam Pole Ozhukumo Nammalwill we flow on like two riverbanks,
Nizhal Paathayaagaveywith our shadows becoming the path?
Vijaaragalagi Ninmugham ThoovumnilaIn my thoughts, your face is a sliver of moonlight,
Ethetho Konil Mooghamaayi Ninnidavestanding silently in some forgotten corner.
Ariyathe Nee AdaraatheYou stay close without me even knowing,
Novirul Neeraveas the darkness of my pain begins to spread.
Chiri Naanam VeenudayatheA shy smile falls and shatters,
Dhoore Maayathey Neebut you don’t fade into the distance.
JeevanazhagalaageyAll the beauty of my life,
Nee Nirajeyithayou’ve filled it all.
Then Nilaavaya MounamA silence like moonlit honey,
Moodi Ninnu Nammewrapped itself all around us.
Oru Vaakkume ParayaatheWithout saying even a word.
ArikayethunnathaareWho is it that’s drawing near?
Hridhaya Thaalagal Nira Nila OnnuUpon my heart’s rhythms, like a full moon,
Thalodunnathaaranewho is it that’s gently caressing them?
Ee Himagalo NanayaatheyWithout getting soaked by this winter mist,
Iravilo Veenidaathewithout falling in the night,
Iru Thalam Pole Ozhukumo Nammalwill we flow on like two riverbanks,
Nizhal Paathayaagaveywith our shadows becoming the path?
