Sungsuvinte Sangharsha Ghadana’s Porilenthaa Kala Lyrics Translation

Later verses ask what happens when hope becomes a snare, leading only to ruin. The lyrics also question where a person can turn for help on the day the cruel world stabs them. These points suggest a deep sense of isolation.

Porilenthaa Kala?What’s the art in war?
Aarilenthaa Vela?What’s the value in a person?
Chorayattu Pokum NaalOn the day our blood runs dry,
Cherilekku Neengum NaamWe will sink into the mud.
Chuvarilenthaa Thola?What’s the hole in the wall?
Kuzhalilenthaa Puka?What’s the smoke in the barrel?
Veeramattu Veezhum NaalOn the day our valor is spent,
Thooliyaayi Maayum NaamWe will fade away as dust.
Kannilenthaa Ala?What’s the wave in the eye?
Nenchilenthaa Vala?What’s the net in the heart?
Aasha Paashamaakum NaalOn the day hope becomes a snare,
Naashameshi Veezhum NaamWe will fall into ruin.
Thorukille Mazha?Won’t this rain ever stop?
Theerukille Kola?Won’t this slaughter ever end?
Krooralokam Kuthum NaalOn the day the cruel world stabs us,
Aarilekku Chaayum Naam?Towards whom will we lean?
Aarithaara Ira?Who is this prey?
Chora Thorum ViraA finger dripping with blood.
Aaliyaali NeeriyaalIf it spreads and burns,
Chaaramaayitheerum NaamWe will all become ash.
Porilenthaa Kala?What’s the art in war?
Oh…Oh…

The song is a progression of stark questions about valor, hope, and survival. Each query concludes with the same outcome of human decay into mud, dust, or ash. The meaning of ‘Porilenthaa Kala’ lyrics is that all conflict is pointless.
