Madharasapattinam Movie’s Pookkal Pookkum Lyrics (English Meaning)
Oh, my sweetheart, no one has ever seen a moment when flowers are blooming.
Ularum Kalai Pozhuthai Muzhumathiyum, Pirinthu Povathillaiaye,
When the morning dawns, the moon does not leave completely.
Netruvarai Neram Poga Villaiye,
It didn’t seem to move until yesterday.
Unathu Aruge Neram Pothavillaiye,
Time is never enough when you’re next to it.
Ethuvum Pesavillaiye Indru Yeno,
I didn’t say anything about it.
Ethuvum Thondravillaiye
Today, I didn’t feel anything for some reason.
Ithu Ethuvo,
What’s that feeling, huh?
Iravum Vidiyavillaiye Athu Vidinthal,
It wasn’t the night that broke into dawn.
Pagalum Mudiyavillaiye,
Even if it broke into dawn, the day did not come to an end.
Poonthalire,
O budding flower,
Varthai Thevaillai Vazhum Kalam Varai,
Words are not required for as long as we live.
Pavai Parvai Mozhi Pesume,
Damsel’s eye is going to speak in volumes.
Netru Thevaillai Nalai Thevaillai,
No need for yesterday, no need for tomorrow,
Indru Intha Nodi Pothume,
just this very moment is enough.
Verindri Vithaindri Vinthoovum Mazhai Indri,
Without roots, without seeds, without rain from the sky,
Ithu Enna Ivan Thottam Poopookuthuthe,
how are these flowers blooming in his garden?
Valindri Porindri Valikindra Yutha Mindri,
Without a sword, without a struggle, without a painful battle.
Ithu Enna Ivanukkul Ennai Velluthe,
What’s this? His love has conquered me.
Idhayam Muzhuthum Irukum,
This hesitation is going to fill the whole heart.
Intha Thayakam Engu Kondu Niruthum,
Where is it going to lead us?
Ithai Ariya Engu Kidaikum Vilakam,
To know this, where am I going to get an explanation?
Athu Kidaithal Solla Vendum Enakum,
If you’ve ever found that, tell me that, too.
Poonthalire,
Oh, my budding flower.
Oh where would I be, without this joy inside of me.
It makes me want to come alive.
It makes me want to fly into the sky.
Oh where would I be?
If I didn’t have you next to me?
Oh where would I be? Oh where oh where? Oh! Where?
Entha Megam Ithu Enthan Vasal Vanthu,
What cloud is this, which has come to my doorway?
Engum Eera Mazhai Thoovuthe,
There’s cool rain sprinkling all over.
Entha Uravu Ithu, Ethuvum Puriyavillai
What kind of relationship is it? I can’t understand anything.
Endrapothum Ithu Neezhuthe,
Even then, it continues to grow.
Yarendru Ariyamal Perkooda Theriyamal,
Without knowing who it is,
Ivalodu Oru Sontham Uruvanathe,
without even knowing the name of a relationship with him.
Yenendru Ketkamal Thaduthalum Nirkamal,
Without asking why, without stopping when hindered,
Ivan Pogum Vazhiyengum Manam Poguthe,
My heart continues to follow wherever it goes.
Pathai Mudintha Piragum,
Even when the path comes to an end,
Intha Ulagil Payanam Mudivathillaiye,
the journey does not end in this world.
Katril Paranthe Paravai Marainthu Piragum,
Flying in the sky, even after the bird disappears,
Ilai Thodangum Nadanam Mudivathillaiye,
the dance started in the leaves does not end.
Ithu Ethuvo,
What a wonder this is!
Pookal Pookum Tharunam Aruyire, Parthatharum Illaiye,
Oh, my sweetheart, no one has ever seen a moment when flowers are blooming.
Ularum Kalai Pozhuthai Muzhumathiyum, Pirinthu Povathillaiaye,
When the morning dawns, the moon does not leave completely.
Netruvarai Neram Poga Villaiye,
It didn’t seem to move until yesterday.
Unathu Aruge Neram Pothavillaiye,
Time is never enough when you’re next to it.
Ethuvum Pesavillaiye Indru Yeno,
I didn’t say anything about it.
Ethuvum Thondravillaiye,
Today, I didn’t feel anything for some reason.
Enna Puthumaii,
What’s that feeling, huh?
Iravum Vidiyavillaiye Athu Vidinthal,
It wasn’t the night that broke into dawn.
Pagalum Mudiyavillaiye,
Even if it broke into dawn, the day did not come to an end.
Athu Ethuvo,
What a wonder this is!
