Madhan Karky writes specific confessions like choosing work over family—’Giving you screen time instead of my time was a mistake.’ The father admits broken promises caused lasting damage to his son’s trust.
Dear Son Dear SonDear son, dear son.
Yen Enna VerukkuraWhy do you hate me?
Dear Son Dear SonDear son, dear son.
Yen Enna ErukkuraWhy are you burning me?
Vidurennu SollittuI said I’d quit,
Smoke Pannadhu Thappu Thaanbut I kept on sm#king, and that was wrong.
Promise Ah PannittuI gave you my word,
Break Pannathum Thappu Thaanand breaking it was definitely wrong.
Dhaagam Edukkuthu Thangha MudilaI’m so thirsty, I can’t bear this anymore.
Please Show Some MercyPlease, show some mercy.
Nenju Valikkudhu Angara MudiyalaMy chest is aching, and I can’t even move.
Please Show Some MercyPlease, show some mercy.
Dear Son Dear SonDear son, dear son.
Yen Enna VerukkuraWhy do you hate me?
Velainnu SollittuI made work my excuse,
Unna Thaniya Vittadhu Thappu Thaanand leaving you all alone was wrong.
En Time Tharaama Unakku Screen TimeInstead of giving you my time, I gave you screen time,
Thandhadhu Thappu Thaanand that was truly wrong of me.
Vaanamum Kodhikuthu Boomiyum KothikuthuThe sky is boiling, and the earth is scorching.
Please Show Some MercyPlease, show some mercy.
Thalaiyum Polakkudhu Paadhamum VedikkudhuMy head is splitting, and my feet are cracking.
Please Show Some MercyPlease, show some mercy.
Dear Son Dear SonDear son, dear son.
Yen Enna VerukkuraWhy do you hate me?
