Kadhali Lyrics English Translation by G. V. Prakash
Madhurakavi presents listeners as puppets holding their own strings. His ‘Paadham Sedhukkinal’ line asserts that paths extend when feet actively carve them.
Kaadhali Kaadhali UnnaiOh beloved soul, you’re the one.
Neeyingu Yarendru TheriyumYou know who you are here.
Kadhali Kadhali UlagaiOh beloved soul, the world,
Un Nokkame Yadhendru PuriyumIt understands what your purpose is.
Boologam EllorkkumThis earth belongs to everyone.
PodhuvanadhuIt’s shared by all.
Siru Erumbumdhan ManmeethuEven a tiny ant on this ground,
PoradudhuIt’s out there struggling.
Neeyum NaanumYou and I,
Ingu BommaidhaneWe’re just puppets here.
Nam Noolo Nam KaiyileBut our strings are in our own hands.
Aththu MeeriBreak the boundaries,
Achchamindri OduRun without any fear.
Boomiyengum Kaal PathiStep foot across the whole world.
Vaazhkai Kaana Ellai Koottai TheduSearch for the limits to truly see life.
Paadham SedhukkinalIf your feet carve the way,
Paadhai NeelumeThe path will stretch out before you.
Mannil Mulaikkum VidhaipolLike a seed sprouting in the soil,
Undhan Manadhil Mulaikkum ValigalThe pains sprouting in your mind,
Ettu Vaikkum KaalgalukkuFor the legs that take those steps,
Thembu MoottumeThey’ll provide the strength you need.
Tholvi Thodarum ManadhilIn a mind where failure follows,
Dhinam Velvi Neruppu ErindhalIf the ‘sacrificial fire’ of will burns daily,
Muyarchigal Vendru KaattumeYour efforts will prove your victory.
Kan ThirandhuOpen your eyes.
Kanavodu Uravaadu NeeGo and bond with your dreams.
Kadal Meedhum PayirEven upon the surface of the sea,
Seivaai NeeYou’ll sow your own crops.
Netri Vervai Sinthinaale MannilIf you shed sweat from your brow onto the earth,
Vetrip Pookkal PookkumeThe flowers of victory will bloom.
Neram Kandu Mundhinaale VaazhvinIf you race ahead of time itself,
Vaasal ThirakkumeLife’s door will swing open.
Thedal JeyikkumeYour search will end in success.
