Aavanipponnoonjaal Song from Kottaram Veettile Apputtan – Lyrics in English with Translation

Aavani ponnoonjal adikkam nine njan
Aayilyam kaavile vennilave
I shall swing the Onam swing for you,
The white moonlight of *AyilyamKavu (Sacred mangrove with this name)
Paathira mullakal thaali poo choodumbol
Poojikkam nine njan ponnu poley
When night jasmines adorn wedding flowers
I shall worship you dearly
Machaka vaathilum thaane thurannu
Pichaka poomanam kattil niranju
Vannallo neeyen poothumbiyay
The door of the terrace opened
And the fragrance of jasmine spread everywhere,
You came as my dragonfly
Aavani ponnoonjal adikkam nine njan
Aayilyam kaavile vennilave
I shall swing the Onam swing for you,
The white moonlight of *AyilyamKavu
Veruthey veruthey parathum mizhikal
Vezhambalaay nin nada kaathu
My searching eyes
Waited for you like a hornbill
Veruthey veruthey parathum mizhikal
Vezhambalaay nin nada kaathu
My searching eyes
Waited for you like a hornbill
Chandanakkuri neeyaninjathilente
Peru pathinjilley
The sandalwood adorned by you,
Isn’t my name imprinted on it?
Mandhahasa palnila puzha
Ente marilalinjilley
Didn’t you fill my heart
With your lake of milky smiles?
Varnnangal vana valli kudilayi
Janmangal malar mani kuda choodi
Colours turned a hut of wild flowers
And births wore a beautiful umbrella of flowers
Aavani ponnoonjal adikkam nine njan
Aayilyam kaavile vennilave
I shall swing the Onam swing for you,
The white moonlight of *AyilyamKavu

Valam kaal punarum kolusin chiriyil
Vaidooryamaayi thaarangal
In the smile of the anklet –
Embracing your right leg,
Stars turned into precious gems
Valam kaal punarum kolusin chiriyil
Vaidooryamaayi thaarangal
In the smile of the anklet –
Embracing your right leg,
Stars turned into precious gems
Nin manasu vilakku vachathu
Minnalayi virinjille
The lamp lit by you,
Didn’t it flower as lightning?
Ponkinavukal vannu ninnude
Thanga meni punarnnille
Didn’t golden dreams
Embrace your golden body?
Neeyinnen swayamvara vadhuvalle
Neeradaan namukkoru kadalille
Are you not my bride today?
To bath,
Don’t we own an ocean?
Aavani ponnoonjal adikkam nine njan
Aayilyam kaavile vennilave
I shall swing the Onam swing for you,
The white moonlight of *AyilyamKavu
Paathira mullakal thaali poo choodumbol
Poojikkam nine njan ponnu poley
When night jasmines adorn wedding flowers
I shall worship you dearly
Machaka vaathilum thaane thurannu
Pichaka poomanam kattil niranju
Vannallo neeyen poothumbiyay
The door of the terrace opened
And the fragrance of jasmine spread everywhere,
You came as my dragonfly
Aavani ponnoonjal adikkam nine njan
Aayilyam kaavile vennilave
I shall swing the Onam swing for you,
The white moonlight of *AyilyamKavu
