I struggled in the land
and returned back to my ocean]

One day i smiled,
other day felt frustrated
I buried you without killing
Will you forgive me?

I struggled to walk
I became a rain made out of thread
I became an artist because of you
You are like a light in distance
and draw me towards you
melum melum urugi urugi

unai enni yengum
idhayathai enna seiven
What do i do with the heart that
melts at the thought of you

You are the moist within me
I missed the boon that i got

to start and end with love

Why did you come into my life my dear
Will you disappear like a mirage
Night is the time when everyone sleeps
But I wet the pillows with tears in nights
