What is the meaning of Engey Needhi Lyrics from Nenjuku Needhi?
Yugabharathi asks why societal hierarchies persist under divine watch. Lyrics state ‘Aren’t all of us your children?’ to challenge perceived indifference. Ananya Bhat’s delivery amplifies the frustration in ‘Even fire has become impure’.
Enge Needhi KanamaWhere has justice gone?
Thembuthe BoomiThe earth is sobbing.
Unnai Thandi Kai YendhumWhy’s there a life where we must beg,
Vazhkai Yen Samieven beyond you, my God?
Yedhedho ThadangaleThere are so many obstacles.
Engeyum EdanjaleThere’s trouble everywhere.
Kanneeril MuzhginalumEven when we’re drowning in tears,
Kathidamal Parpathodo you just watch without protecting us?
Ellarum Un PullaAren’t we all your children?
Kanakku PuriyathaDon’t you understand the count?
Yar Mela Yar KeezhaWho’s above and who’s below,
Unakkum Theriyathadon’t you know that either?
Nithamum Unnai VendiyumEven though we pray to you every day,
Vali Theerave Illaiour pain hasn’t ended.
Ethanai Vaga SangiyumNo matter how many rituals we’ve performed,
Senja Podhume Nee Varlayou didn’t show up.
Theindama ParkuraYou witness ‘untouchability’ or social exclusion.
Aala Nee Kaval KakkathaDon’t protect those who oppress us.
Kathoda NathamaLike a stench in the wind,
Engala Neeyum Mathathadon’t discard us like we’re nothing.
Thee Kooda TheetacheEven fire has been made ‘impure’.
Kan Moodi NikkadhaDon’t just stand there with your eyes closed.
Enge Needhi KanamaWhere has justice gone?
Thembuthe BoomiThe earth is sobbing.
Unnai Thandi Kai YendhumWhy’s there a life where we must beg,
Vazhkai Yen Samieven beyond you, my God?
Yedhedho ThadangaleThere are so many obstacles.
Engeyum EdanjaleThere’s trouble everywhere.
Kanneeril MuzhginalumEven when we’re drowning in tears,
Kathidamal Parpathodo you just watch without protecting us?
Kanneere Illatha Kalam PorakkathaWon’t an era without tears ever be born?
Kai Meerum Agasam Kana KidaikathaWon’t we ever see the sky that’s out of our reach?
Kanneere Illatha Kalam PorakkathaWon’t a time without tears finally arrive?
Kai Meerum Agasam Kana KidaikathaWon’t we get to see the heavens that are beyond us?
Persistent inequality forms the core message of this 2022 release. English lyrics translations of ‘Engey Needhi’ document protests against systemic neglect. Dhibu Ninan Thomas’s composition frames unresolved spiritual dilemmas.
