Mohan Rajan’s verses declare ‘You are my life, body, existence.’ Mahalingam sings of pain absorbed like a vital organ, reinforcing the blood pact’s permanence.
Moochaangoodae VeguthingaeMy breath’s burning within me.
Kangal Rendil KanneereThere’re tears in both my eyes.
Ye Moochaangoodae VeguthingaeOh, my breath’s burning within me.
Kangal Rendil KanneereThere’re tears in both my eyes.
Sottangalla SozhaluthingaeIt’s spinning around like a top.
En Nenju Koodu ThannaleMy heart’s cage turns all on its own.
Sottangalla SozhaluthingaeIt’s spinning around like a top.
En Nenju Koodu ThannaleMy heart’s cage turns all on its own.
Ennoda Jeevanum NeeyaeYou’re my very life.

Oh Unakkae Ellam SeivenaeOh, I’ll do everything just for you.
Unai Endhan Kannaai KaappenaeI’ll protect you as if you’re my own eye.
Oh Thookanangkuruvi KoodaeOh, like a ‘weaver bird’s nest’.
