Yaar Intha Peigal Lyrics English Translation by Ilaiyaraaja | Yuvan Shankar Raja

Pa. Vijay contrasts wilting flowers with unseen tears to illustrate silent victimization. The lyricist shifts to direct instruction: ‘Become fire with righteous anger’ when facing unknown wrongdoing.

Yar Indha PeigalWho are these demons?
Nee AriyamalWithout you even knowing,
Theemaiyin Kai Konduwith hands of pure evil,
Theendudhoodo they touch you?
Pookal SarugagumA flower becomes a withered leaf,
Adhan Kanneerand its tears,
Pirar Kanamal Karainthodumdissolve and flow away, unseen by anyone.
Veenai ViragallaA ‘veenai’ isn’t just firewood,
Isai Padumit sings out a melody,
Adhu Idhamaga Vilaiyadumplaying on so pleasantly.
Anjadhe AnbeDon’t be afraid, my love.
