Chandrikayil Aliyunnu Chandrakantham – Lyrics in English with translation

Chandrikayil aliyunnu chandrakaantham

Moonstone is dissolving in Moonlight

Nin chiriyil aliyunnen jeevaraagam

The tune of my life melts in your smile

Neela vaanil aliyunnu dhaahamegham

The thirsty cloud melts in the blue sky

Nin mizhiyil aliyunnen jeevamegham (Chandrika)

The cloud of my life melts in your eye

 

Thaarakayo neela thaamarayo

Is it (Female) star or blue lotus

Nin thaarani kannil kathir chorinju

Who showered rays in your beautiful eyes?

Varna mohamo poya janmapunyamo

Are they colourful desires or virtue of previous birth

Nin maanasathil prema madhu pakarnnu (Chandrika)

Which poured the nectar of love in your heart?

 

Maadhavamo nava hemanthamo

Can spring or the new winter

Nin manikavil malaraay vidarthiyenkil

Bloom your pretty cheeks as flowers?

Thanka chippiyil, ninte thenalar chundil

Inside the golden shell, in your honey lips,

Oru sangeetha bindhuvaay njaan unarnnuvenkil (Chandrika)

If only I could wake up like a dot of music!
