Thaman S | Vijay Yesudas • From “Sabdham”
Sabdham’s Maaya Maaya Tamil Lyrics English Translation
Viveka describes pursuing a voice daily without knowing the cost. The central hook questions whether illusion acts like fire in drizzle form. Vijay Yesudas delivers these lines with immersive vocal layers.
Yaaro YaaroWho is it? Just who is it?
En Jennal KaatroduThey’re in the breeze at my window.
Yedho YedhoSomething… it’s just something.
En Saalai NizhaloduWalking with my shadow on the road.
Yeno YenoWhy? Just why?
Oor Neram NenjoduDeep in my heart, at some point.
Engo EngoSomewhere, just somewhere.
Sendrenae UnnoduI’ve wandered off with you.
Kural AzhagaiFollowing the beauty of that voice,
Dhinam Dhinam Thodarnthae PonenI’ve chased it day after day.
Ariya VilaiNot knowing the heavy price,
Muluvathum Tholaindhe PonenI’m completely lost now.
Narumanamaai KaatrinilLike a fragrance in the breeze,
Kalandhe PonenI’ve merged and disappeared.
Idhu NijamaaIs this reality?
Verum Nizhal KanavaaOr just a shadow in a dream?
Maaya Maaya MaayaIllusion, illusion, oh illusion.
Saral Veesum TheeyaaAre you a fire that sprays like a drizzle?
