Sinam’s Nenjellam Tamil Lyrics English Translation
Karky writes of a fragrance that never speaks yet rushes inward, altering everything. The comparison to an umbrella in storm winds shows how love upends stability without warning.

Idhan Munne Nilladha NodiyeOh moment that has never stopped before,
Yugam Ondrai Yen Neelgiraiwhy are you stretching into an entire era?
