The Descent of the Sky Man (Translation of Vaan Varuvan)


The Descent of the Sky Man (Translation of Vaan Varuvan)
-----------------------------
Composed by A.R Rahman
Original  lyrics by Vairamuthu
Translated by Madhavan Narayanan


He’ll come from the skies
He will He will He will
He’ll come from the skies
He will He will He will

From the skies
From the skies
From the skies
From the skies

He’ll touch me, the sky man
Fall like the rain, the sky man
He knows my secrets, the sky man
He’ll hide inside me, the sky man
He’ll stand proud beside me – the sky man
He’ll bow when he’s afar – the sky man!

When I strut in pride to the bone
He’ll freeze like a stone
He’ll freeze like a stone
Like a stone. Like a stone.

When love visits him to boot
He’ll soften as jelly, like a fruit
Tender to the root.
My secret lover, that lustful man!
He’ll come, he’ll come – the sky man!

He’ll touch me, the sky man
He falls like the rain, the sky man
He knows my secrets, the sky man
He hides inside me, the sky man
He’ll stand proud beside me – the sky man!

When I strut in pride to the bone
He’ll freeze like a stone
He’ll freeze like a stone
Like a stone. Like a stone.

When he's with me
He’ll think of some girl
And when he's with her
He’ll pine for me
He won’t forsake me
He won’t forget me
If he does forget
It will be his last breath!

When my eyes fall
He’ll spread like space - afar
When I open my eyes
He’ll vanish in a blink, by far!

He’ll touch me, the sky man
He falls like the rain, the sky man
He knows my secrets, the sky man
He hides inside me, the sky man
He’ll stand proud beside me – the sky man!

When I strut in pride to the bone
He’ll freeze like a stone
He’ll freeze like a stone
Like a stone. Like a stone.
