Mura’s Veenurukiyo Lyrics Translation

The lyrics continue by describing the day as orphaned and incomplete. An approaching storm is asked if it is the physical arrival of sorrow. Another line compares this internal feeling to a heavy downpour of blood.

Veenurukiyo TheeveileyDid you fall and melt away, O fiery sun?
Kenuuzhariyo KaarmukileyDid you weep and trickle down, O dark cloud?
Nigoodam Vimookam Varum Kodum IrulilIn the immense darkness that comes, mysterious and silent,
Anaatham Apoornnam Viraamamo PakaleyOrphaned, incomplete… is this just a pause, O day?
Parayoo Vrithaa Alayoo PozhiyooSpeak, wander in vain, pour down
Pemazha Pol Rudhiram PolLike a downpour, like blood
Manasaam MukileyO cloud of my own mind,
Aarthu Varum Azhalo NeeAre you the sorrow that comes roaring in?
AaAh…
Aarthu Varum Mazhayayi NeeYou come roaring in as the rain
AaAh…
Veenurukidoo TheeveileyHave you not yet fallen and melted, O fiery sun?
Kenuuzharidoo KaarmukileyHave you not yet wept and trickled down, O dark cloud?
