Era
Era/Florence Dedam Lyrics

Yo! Irudhi varaiyil indha sollisai kalaiyum, Isai mattum en thunai
Hey! From morning till night, this art of music is my companion

Ini thuvakkam kalai thuraiyil, paaka mattum than sulabam, Aatam kaatidum ulagam
Now, it's easy to witness this art on the big stage, where it makes the world dance

Saadhithavargal kuraivu, paadhiyil vittu vilagiyadhaal
Abandoning half way due to lack of patience deprives the world of great artists

Oru moota katti vekka sonan kanavugala
I had dreamt of breaking a huge wall

Ada aasai ellam moodi vechen manasu kulla
All my aspirations, I had kept locked in my heart

Naanum kaathuruken varusham full-ah
I have also grown old full year

Bayathil, oru vela nenachadhu nadakalana
If I had feared, I wouldn't have walked this path

Ethana varusham? ethana kanavu
How many years? How many dreams?

Nanum thodangunen en siru vayadhil
I have also started in my young age

Inum vida villai aasaigal manadhil
Even now, there are unfulfilled desires in my heart

Dhinam thorathuren vinnai thodum vara thaan
Every day, dawn brings a ray of hope

Varum kaalame inge yennoda era
My time will come here, this is my era

Nambikka? Nambikka ilana kaathu irundhu paaru
Do you have faith? If not, watch from the corner

Kanda kanavellam nejathil nadakum da
All the dreams I've seen, I'll walk towards them truthfully

Nanum erakki vekkuren nenjil ulla baaram
I will also remove the burden in my heart

Pazhasa maraka, uyara parapen, vazhkai uru maarum
I will break the old shackles, I will take the leap, life will prosper

Enadhu kaayam aarum, nan vandha vazhiyil yaavum
My soul will wander in the path that I have chosen

Udhavi ena yaarum kai kodukka villai indha samudhayam
No one in this society will give help without wanting anything in return

Pala iravugal urakkam ilamal uzhaithaal
If you don't rest in many nights, you will succeed one day

Pala madanga than uyarvu varum da oru naal
One day, small steps will lead to big success

Bayathil, oru vela kanavugal nadakalana
If I had feared, I wouldn't have walked towards my dreams

Ethana kozhappam manadhil, dhinamum pozhappa nenach
No matter how many worries in my heart, I think positively every day

Enoda valarchi, edhuku unmaya marachu
Why should I lose hope when my growth is true?

Makkal-in nanmaya parikkum, kevalam panatha madhikkum, vela thevai ila
Serving the public makes your soul pure, not just the money earned, no need to work hard for things that are not necessary

Perusa kaasuku aasai illa
I don't have any dreams to become rich

Sethadhum ellarum mannu kulla
Everyone falls down at some point

Mothathil mathavanukaaga vaazhndhu yaaruku enna laabam
What is the point of living your whole life prioritizing someone else's happiness?

Yen thani isai kalai ku indha saabam? Ini
Why is this perfume for my music art? Now

Tamizh sollisai ku pirandhidum oru kaalam, edhir kaalam
A time will come when Tamil music will prosper

Indha nilai ini maarum, oru alai uruvaagum, tamizh Ulaginai aazhum
This value will continue, a wave will rise, Tamil will rule the world

En kadhaigalai naanum ezhudhi, dhinam naan sindhum kaneer thuli
I write my stories, every day I shed tears

Kaagidhathil vizhundhida vaarthai ellam thee
Words that fell on paper have now turned to ashes

Iniyum bayam ilai kanavugal nadandhidum paar
Now, without fear, let dreams walk

Ezhundhaalum kanavugal azhiyadhu
Even if I wake up, the dreams won't disappear

Vizhundhalum en kadhai mudiyadhu
Even if I fall, my story won't end

Irangaamal, uzhaikaamal kidaikaadhu, oru podhum nadakadhu
If we don't stay still or move, we won't get anywhere, we have to take a step forward

Uyir pogum andha nilamaiyil kuda vana vilangu ena naan muzhangida
Even in that ground where life dies, I become a forest fire

Yaar thaduppinum en kaal thadam nilai aagum, nigal kaalam enadhaagum
My feet will stop for anyone, but time won't stop for me

Yen na, idhu yennoda yennoda ERA
Why not? This is my era
