Alai Theendatha Karai IrukkuThere are shores untouched by the ocean’s waves,
Mazhai Thodadha Karai Irukkuand lands left unkissed by the falling rain.
Isai Thoda Manasu Onnu IrukkaBut is there a single heart that music hasn’t touched?
Niram Illadha MozhirukkuThere are languages that lack vibrant colors,
Manam Illa Malar Irukkuand flowers that bloom without any fragrance.
Sugam Illa Pattu Onnu IrukkaBut is there a single song that doesn’t bring us joy?
