Theerndhu Pona Lyrics Translation Justin Prabhakaran | Sathyaprakash | Irugapatru
Karthik Netha compares withered love to a fragrance-less bloom. One lyric describes verbal conflict as swords made of words. This exchange results in isolated withdrawal after mutual injury.
Theerndhu Pona ThuralA drizzle that’s ended,
Thirumbaathadiwon’t come back again.
Kaaindhu Pona PoovilIn a flower that’s dried up,
Manam Yedhadiwhere’s the fragrance?
Theerndhu Pona VaanilIn a sky that’s spent,
Pagal Yedhadiwhere’s the daylight?
Veezhndhu Pona AnbilIn a love that’s fallen,
Parakkadhadidon’t try to fly.
Naan Thedum KaadhalThe love I’m searching for,
Unnil Illayoisn’t it within you?
Unn Anbil YedhumIn your love,
Unnmai Illayoisn’t there any truth?
Kaalanthorum MaarbilTo hold you against my chest forever,
Unai Thaangaveand support you,
Thedi Thedi KattrenI’ve searched and learned;
Adhu Paavamais that a sin?
Vaarthaigalaal VaaleduthuYou took a sword made of words,
Veesivitte Pootikkondaaistruck me, and then locked yourself away.
Kaayangalaal Naan AzhuthenI cried from the wounds you caused,
Vesham Endre Koorivittaaibut you just called it an act.
Nee Paarkum PaarvaiThe way you look at me,
Koondil Yethutheytraps me in a cage.
Nee Paarkum PaarvaiThat gaze of yours,
Koondil Yethutheykeeps me imprisoned.
Ennai Ketkum KelviThe questions you ask me,
Theeyil Veesutheythrow me into the fire.
Ennai Ketkum KelviEvery question you pose,
Theeyil Veesutheycasts me into the flames.
