Lyrics and translation S. P. Balasubrahmanyam - Malaril Malare

Malaril Malare

Malarae mounamaa mounamae vaedhamaa
Malargal paesumaa paesinaal oayumaa anbae

(Malarae)

Paadhi jeevan kondu dhaegam vaazhndhu vandhadhoa
Meedhi jeevan unnai partha poadhu vandhadhoa
Aedhoa sugam ulloorudhae aenoa manam thallaadudhae (2)
Viralgal thodavaa virundhaith tharavaa
Maarboadu kangal moodavaa

(Malarae)

Kanavu kandu endhan kangal moodik kidandhaen
Kaatru poala vandhu kangal mellath thirandhaen
Kaatrae enaik killaadhiru poovae ennaith thallaadhiru (2)
Uravae uravae uyirin uyirae
Pudhu vaazhkai thandha vallalae

(Malarae)

Malaril Malare

My flower, my silent one, my silent song,
My flowers bloom, bloomed from my song,

(My flower,)

I am alive as I carry this burden for half my life,
My life is yours as I met you over there
Is it because of the fake ease of the clouds, or the fickleness of my heart (2)?
I went in search of the roots, searching for the feast,
I fainted as I closed my eyes

(My flower,)

I dreamt of you, with my eyes half-closed,
You came when the breeze came and opened the eyes in my eyes,
O breeze, don't torment me, O flower, don't make me cry (2),
My soul, my soul, the breath of life,
My benefactor, who gave me a new life,

(My flower,)
