Ennodenthini Pinakkam Song from Kaliyattam – Lyrics in English with Translation
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me? (Why are you upset with me?)
Today also (Still now), what’s your gripe with me?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Orupaadu naalay kaathirinnu
Nee oru nokku kaanan vannilla
I have been waiting so long for many days
Why didn’t you come to have a single glance of mine?
Chandana thennalum poonilavum
Ente karalinte nombaram cholliyille
That air with the fragrance of sandalwood & that moonlight
Didn’t they tell you the pain of my heart?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Maikkannezhuthi orungi
Innum vaalkkannadi nokki
I drew kohl and got ready
And looked at my hand mirror
Kasthoori manjal kuri varachu
Kannil kaarthika deepam koluthi
Put Kasturi turmeric on my forehead
Lighted Kartika lamp in my eyes
Ponkinaavin oonjalil enthe
Nee maatramaadan vanilla
But to swing in my golden dreams
Why you only didn’t come?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Kaalperumaattam kettal
Njan padippurayolam chellum
When I hear any footstep reverberating
I run to reach the front doorstep
Kaalthala kilungathe nadakkum
Aa viliyonnu kelkkan kothikkum
I walk without my anklet making noise
And, desire to hear you calling me once
Kadavathu thoni kandilla
Enthe enee nee thedi vanilla
But your boat didn’t appear at the shore
Why didn’t you come searching me?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
What’s this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Orupaadu naalay kaathirinnu
Nee oru nokku kaanan vannilla
I have been waiting for so many days
Why didn’t you come to have a single glance of mine?
Chandana thennalum poonilavum
Ente karalinte nombaram cholliyille
That air with the fragrance of sandalwood & that moonlight
Didn’t they tell you the pain of my heart?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Ennodenthinee pinakkam
Innumenthinaanennodu paribhavam
Why is this discordance with me?
Today, also, what’s your gripe with me?
Trivia: Debut song of Bhavana RadhaKrishnan, which won her state award for best female playback, too. Perfect ghost voice for Manju Warrier, absolutely! Despite the song being so popular at the time, this extremely talented artist didn’t get any further opportunities. Chitra won state awards in a row, 1985-95. Sujatha broke it in 1996 & Bhavana won in 1997.
