Cheera Poovukalkkumma Song from Dhanam – Lyrics in English with Translation
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Thennalariyathe annarakkannanariyathe
Without letting know the breeze,
Without letting know the squirrel,
Vingikkarayana kaana poovinte
Kanneeroppamo…oonjaalatti urakkaamo
Can you wipe the tears of that crying flower,
Can you swing her & make her sleep?
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Thekke muttathe muthanga pullil
Muttiyurummiyurummiyirikkana
Pachakkuthirakale…
In the nut grass, on the south side of the courtyard,
Hey grasshoppers (pair), sitting together,
Touching each other
Thekke muttathe muthanga pullil
Muttiyurummiyurummiyirikkana
Pachakkuthirakale…
In the nut grass, on the south side of the courtyard,
Hey grasshoppers (pair), sitting together,
Touching each other
Vettila naambu murikkan vaa
Kasthoori chunnambu theykkan vaa
Come to pinch off the stalk of the betel leaf,
Come to apply *kasturi lime,
Kocharippallu murukki chuvakkumbol
Muthassiyammaye kaanan vaa
When your small & tender teeth turn reddish,
Come to visit the old lady
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Mele varyathe poovaali payyu
Nakki thudachu minukkiyorukkana
Kuttikkurumbukaari…
Hey, *Poovali(name) cow in *Melevaryam (a neighbour’s home),
The mischievous young one (calf),
Nursed by mother
Mele varyathe poovaali payyu
Nakki thudachu minukkiyorukkana
Kuttikkurumbukaari…
Hey, *Poovali(name) cow in *Melevaryam
The mischievous young one (calf),
Nursed by mother
Kingini maala kilukkan vaa
Kinnari pullu kadikkan vaa
Come to shake the bell chain
Come to bite tender grass
Thoovelli kindiyil paalu pathayumbol
Thulli kalichu nadakkan vaa
When milk foams in a white *Kindi (a container),
Come to jump and play
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
Thennalariyathe annarakkannanariyathe
Without letting know the breeze,
Without letting know the squirrel,
Vingikkarayana kaana poovinte
Kanneeroppamo…oonjaalatti urakkaamo
Can you wipe the tears of that crying flower?
Can you swing her & make her sleep?
Cheerappovukalkkuma kodukkana
Neelakkuruvikale…
Hey, blue sparrows, kissing spinach flowers
