Thani Maramai
Pavithra Ramesh | Santhosh Narayanan • From “Buffoon”
Uma Devi uses tree imagery to represent solitary existence. Her line ‘the sun never leaves the sky’s embrace’ frames commitment as natural law. Aditya Ravindran’s delivery reinforces unbroken attachment despite separation.
Thani Maramai IrundhenI’ve been standing like a lonely tree,
Thunai Varave Ninaithen ParandhaiHoping for a companion, but you flew away.
Vennil Kalam Paalai KattilIn this moonlit time, on this desert bed,
Padagai Vendam AnbeI don’t need a boat, my love.
