Vaaya Ey Karasaami Lyrics English Translation – Kara | Anthony Daasan, Arunraja Kamaraj

Nenjoram Kanneera
Tears flood the edges of our hearts,

Ninaippellam Venneera
Thoughts surge and burn like scorching waters.

Kannadiyanama Naan Arugiduche
A heart once clear as glass lies broken and bare,

Nee Engeya
Where are you now, my lord? Are you there?

Manjatha Valaiveesi
Casting wide a treacherous net of deceit,

Sondhathai Vilaivesi
Setting a cruel price on our blood for gain.

Kazhuthu Vara Kalaiyellam
The weeds have risen up to clutch our throat,

Nerukkuthappa Thangaiya
They choke our breath, my lord, with growing strain.

Vidhaichatha Arukkava Vaaya
Come, reap what was sown.

Vilaichala Kodukkavaaya
Come now, claim what has grown.

Uruthuna Kuruthai Ellam Kolithida Thuninjuvaaya
All the wounds carved deep in bone, come burn them clean till they are gone.

Kulasami
O guardian deity.

Karasami
Karasaami, hear our plea.

Kulasami
O guardian deity,

Karasami
Karasaami, set us free.

The hour of harvest draws near. Come forth, Karasaami.

Aattatha Mudichu Vaikka Kelambidiya Kulasami
Step in and end this wicked game, our guardian Kulasaami.

Sadhi Senja Koottatha Kadhi Kalanga Nerikkavida
To let those who schemed in treachery scatter in fear and dismay.

To avenge the one who came to dig our graves, drive him away.

Step in and end this wicked game, our guardian Kulasaami.

Pagaiya Vilakki Vangipputten Paraiyal Poda Mendhukkitten
The foe is already bound for sacrifice. A vow is made for the offering; he’ll pay the price.

If you claim your justice as true, I have my own justice too.

Irukka Pora Vaazhkaiyil Edhukku Marana Kanakkuda
With whatever life is left to live, why count the dead we cannot revive?

Kaasa Mattum Mattum Pudunguna Kanavu Pona Ninaippudhaan
Had they usurped only money, it would only feel like theft.

Kanavai Koduthu Pudungitta Usuru Poga Velai
But dreams given and then stolen back, that pain cuts deeper yet.

Thurathi Thurathi Adikkum Podhu Odi Ozhiya Vazhiyilla
Chased and beaten again and again, I had nowhere to run.

Thirumbi Ninnu Muraikkum Podhu Thuninji Evanum Nerungala
Now, when I turn and face them, no one dares come, not a single one.

Valiyai Koduthu Vazhiya Varaikkum Pootta Onnum Pudhusulla
Those who block your path and bring you pain are nothing new.

Kanakka Mudichu Kodukkum Podhu Kavalai Theerum Manasula
When the score is settled, the heart finds its peace, too.
