Mavale Mavale Lyrics Translation – Theerpugal Virkapadum Soundtrack
Srikanth Varadan writes the father declaring his daughter gave him purpose. The line ‘Thaye Illa Kalangavillai’ states she replaces maternal absence through companionship.
Edhukkaga PoranthennuYou’ve shown me clearly why I was born,
Thelivaga Puriya Vachaand you’ve helped me understand it all.
Enakkana MugavariyaYou’ve helped me recognize my own identity,
Adaiyalam Theriya Vachaand you’ve shown me where I belong.
Idhama Imsai PannuraYou tease me with such gentle mischief,
Tharama Thalatturaand you soothe me with a perfect lullaby.
Ariva Pesi PinnuraYou weave wonders with your wise words,
Ulagatha Azhagakkuraand you make the whole world beautiful.
Mavale MavaleMy daughter, oh my daughter.
Enna Petha MavaleYou’re the daughter who gave me life.
En Seiyum AvaleShe’s my precious little child,
Thayum Avaleand she’s a mother to me too.

Thaye Illa KalangavillaiI didn’t worry about being motherless,
