Dheivam Ilaiyo Lyrics Meaning Aalaap Raju | Kenatha Kanom
Mohan Rajan pens lines like, ‘Is there no God? You’ve faded away like a dream,’ capturing the pain of a village desperate for rain. The poet describes the earth’s dryness and the people’s tears, creating a vivid image of their suffering and hope for change.
Dheivam Illayo Kanavodu Ponai Oy NeeyeIs there no God? You’ve faded away like a dream.
Enna Vazhkaiyo Valiyodu Vazhndhai Oy NeeyeWhat kind of life is this? You’ve lived through such pain.
Eeram Parthida Oor Vazha VendiyeJust to see some moisture, so this village can survive,
Neeyum Neenginai Mazhai Neerai Vendiyeyou’ve left us, desperately longing for the rain.
Indha Mannum Endru Maarum Nenjam KetkindradheyMy heart keeps asking, when will this dry land ever change?
Dheivam Illayo Kanavodu Ponai Oy NeeyeIs there no God? You’ve faded away like a dream.
Enna Vazhkaiyo Valiyodu Vazhndhai Oy NeeyeWhat kind of life is this? You’ve lived through such pain.
Mazhaiyin Varugai NadakadhoWill the arrival of the rain never happen?
Vizhiyin Azhugai KuraiyadhoWill the tears in our eyes never stop falling?
Irulum Orunaal VidiyadhoWon’t this darkness turn into dawn one day?
Valigal Adhupol MudiyadhoWon’t our suffering end just like that too?
Megam Irangadho Sogam OdhungadhoWon’t the clouds descend? Won’t this sorrow finally leave?
Kangal Sindhum Eeram Mattum Mannai ThodugindradheyOnly the moisture from our weeping eyes touches the earth.
Indha Mannum Endru Maarum Nenjam KetkindradheyMy heart keeps asking, when will this dry land ever change?
Dheivam Illayo Kanavodu Ponai Oy NeeyeIs there no God? You’ve faded away like a dream.
Eeram Parthida Oor Vazha VendiyeJust to see some moisture, so this village can survive,
Neeyum Neenginai Mazhai Neerai Vendiyeyou’ve left us, desperately longing for the rain.
Indha Mannum Endru Maarum Nenjam KetkindradheyMy heart keeps asking, when will this dry land ever change?
