Rain is main

2

Vaan Sirappu

Par excellence the rain

Vaanindru ulagam vazhangi varuvathal
Thanamizhtham endrunara paatru

Earth to sustain life
Rain plays fife

Thupparaku thuppaya thuppakki thupparku
Thuppaya thoovum mazhai

Rainfed board to lives
With plants fives

Vinnindru poippin virineer viyanulathu
Ulnindru udatrum pasi

Rain failing pain prevails
Ocean surrounded wails

Erin uzhaar uzhavar puyalennum
Vaari valankundi kaal

Rains diminishing ryots shirk
Subjects starve, quirk

Kedupathuvum kettarku charvaimatr aangay
Eduppathuvum ellam mazhai

More rain loss vegetation
Cycle restores, agitation

Visumbin thuliveezhin allalmatra angay
Pasumpul thalailanbu tharithu

Not one drop green
Grass not seen.

Nedunkadalum thanneermai kundrum thadinthezhili
Thaannalga thagi vidin

Dry will be ocean
Not set motion

Sirappodu poosanai sellathu vaanam
Varakkumel vaanorkum eendu

Water matters Gods hailed
Doesn't rains failed

Dhanam thavamirandum thanga viyanulagam
Vaanam vazhaga thenin.

Beauty disappears of earth
Bounty pours dearth

Neerindru amaiathu ulagenin yaryarkum
Vanindru amaiyathu ozhukku

Rain fails toils waste
Life doesn't taste
