Pakalil Pathiyum Lyrics Translation – Mea Culpa Soundtrack
Anwar Abdullah describes a woman carrying separation’s fire as shadows disappear. The lyrics say her life melts like wax while hearing death’s soft song. Her fading shadow emphasizes complete solitude on this endless journey.
Pakalil Pathiyum Veyilin CheelukalShards of sunlight fall during the day,
Irulin Paathaye Punarum NeramaayIt’s time to embrace the path of shadows.
Evalekaakini VirahatheevaahiniShe’s a lonely woman, bearing the fire of separation.
Vaazhwin Kaamini Vazhi Thedum PaapiniA lover of life, a sinner who’s searching for her way.
Akalangal Kaanathe Avasaanamezhaa YaathraAn endless journey that never sees the horizon.
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
RaakkaattinnazhalThe grief of the night wind,
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
EalkkunneeyudalThis body’s enduring it all.
Ekaanthamanasaarnnalayum Shokaandha ThamassodaliyumWandering with a lonely heart, she’s merging with the darkness blinded by grief.
Thinkalthiraye Moodum Mukile Neeyee Nizhalum MaaykkukayoO cloud that shrouds the moon’s glow, are you erasing this shadow too?
Eniyee Irulil Thaara AthumaathramivalkkaamoIn this darkness now, can a star be her only companion?
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
Novum PraananilInside the aching soul,
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
Neerum OrmmakalMemories that continue to burn.
Mezhukaay Urukum Thanu Thaangum JeevanilIn a life supported by a body that’s melting like wax,
Mrduvaay Kelkkayo Maranathin GeethakamDo you hear the soft melody of death?
Nizhalum Maanjupoy Ariyoree KaalthalirEven the shadow’s faded from these weary, tender feet.
Thalarum Theeramaay Evidam Nin KaalvariThis tiring shore’s become your ‘Calvary – a place of ultimate suffering’.
Roouu Deepavumillathe ShubhathaarakamillatheWithout the lamp of the ‘soul’ and without a lucky star,
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
Neelum PaathayilOn the path that stretches forever,
Oaa OaaOaa Oaa
NeeyinnekayaayYou’re all alone today.
