Elamalakaadinullil Song from Pathaam Valavu – Lyrics in English with Translation
Ela malakkaadinullil
Oru naalumani poo virinje
Naalumani poovarikil
Then thumbikalum koottirunne
A 4 O’ clock flower
Blossomed in the cardamom hill forests.
Near the 4 o’clock flower
The honey flies guarded
Thennaludayaada thanne
Mani chinthumozhiyothi vanne
Melleyathu naadarinje
The breeze gave a dress
Came that way singing a beautiful tune
Slowly, the countryside came to know about it
Vaanam dhooreyathu kandunarnne
Amma mukilin ulluniranje
Mazhayaay pozhinje
Afar, the skies woke up seeing it….
The heart of the mother cloud
Filled and poured down as rain
Ela malakkaadinullil
Oru naalumani poo virinje
Naalumani poovarikil
Then thumbikalum koottirunne
A 4 O’ clock flower
Blossomed in the cardamom hill forests.
Near the 4 o’clock flower
The honey flies guarded
Anpaakum thanalil aananda kudilil
Annavaronnirunnu mizhivode
In the shade of love
In the coolness of joy
A swan sat, with beauty
Ullaake thurannum novellaam marannum
Snehathin niramulla chiriyode
With an open mind, forgetting all pains
And with a smile coloured with love,
Omalppoonkurunnin mizhivaadaathe
Venalppaadakale maranje
Not withering the eyes of tender sprout,
The shades of summer disappeared far.
Vaanathin madiyil athirillaathe
Mohathin chirakil paranne
Ennumivide vannu niranje naruthen madhuram
In the lap of skies, without boundaries,
Wings of desire flew.
Every day, came filling in
The sweetness of fresh honey
Ela malakkaadinullil
Oru naalumani poo virinje
Naalumani poovarikil
Then thumbikalum koottirunne
A 4 O’ clock flower
Blossomed in the cardamom hill forests.
Near the 4 o’clock flower
The honey flies guarded
Vellaaram veyilil kunnoracherivil
Ponnaada neythidunna pakalaavaam
In the beautiful sunlight
In the slope of the hill
Let’s become the day
Which weaves the golden cloth
Munnaazhi kanavil moovanthichimizhil
Ambilikkala kandu mizhimoodaam
In the 3 o’clock hour (early morning) dream
In the beauty of setting dusk,
We shall close our eyes(sleep)
Seeing the crescent moon.
Pandathe kanalum mizhineer kadalum
Innathe kuliril maraye
While embers of yesterdays
And the ocean of tears,
Disappear in the coolness of today,
Neeyillaathulakil enikkaay valaraan
Veraarum iniyilluyire
In a world without you, for me,
There is no one else to grow here after, dear.
Ullileriyum kunjumezhukin
Thiriyaanini nee
Hereafter,
You are the wick of the little candle
Which glows inside me
Ela malakkaadinullil
Oru naalumani poo virinje
Naalumani poovarikil
Then thumbikalum koottirunne
A 4 O’ clock flower
Blossomed in the cardamom hill forests.
Near the 4 o’clock flower
The honey flies guarded
Thennaludayaada thanne
Mani chinthumozhiyothi vanne
The breeze gave a dress
Came that way singing a beautiful tune
Melleyathu naadarinje
Slowly, the countryside came to know about it
Vaanam dhooreyathu kandunarnne
Amma mukilin ulluniranje
Mazhayaay pozhinje
Afar, the skies woke up seeing it….
The heart of the mother cloud
Filled and poured down as rain
