Evano Oruvan...


Evano oruvan vaasikkiraan...iruttilirundhu naan yaasikkiraen

Someone is playing (the flute), in the dark I am loving

Thavam poal irundhu yoasikkiraen adhaith thavanai muraiyil naesikkiraen

Like a meditation I am thinking, and I am loving those thoughts in the sequence

Kaettu kaettu naan kirangugiraen kaetpadhai avanoa ariyavillai

I am continuously listening and falling for thee and he does not know I am listening

Kaattu moongilin kaadhukkullae avan oodhum ragasiyam puriyavillai

Not understanding the secrets which he blew into the ear of the bamboo from the woods


Pullaanguzhalae poonguzhalae neeyum naanum oru jaadhi 

My bamboo flute, my flowery flute you and I are the same race

Ullae urangum aekkaththilae unakkum enakkum sari paadhi

The eagerness that sleeps inside is equally divided for you and me

Kangalai varudum thaenisaiyil en kaalam kavalai marandhiruppaen

In the soft music that touches my eyes I forget my lifetime of pain

Innisai mattum illaiyendraal naan endroa endroa irandhiruppaen

If there wasn't soft music I would have died long ago


Urakkam illaa munniravil en ul manadhil oru maarudhalaa

In these sleepless nights is there a change in my mind?

Irakkam illaa iravugalil idhu evanoa anuppum maarudhalaa

In these loveless nights is this a change sent by him?

Endhan sogam theervadharku idhu poal marundhu piridhillaiyae

To cure my sadness there isn't a medicine like that

Andhak kuzhalaippol azhuvadharku aththanai kangal enakkillaiyae

To cry like the flute I don't have that many eyes! ( the holes in the flute)
