Maanathe Mazhamukil Song from Kannappanunni – Lyrics in English with Translation

Maanathe mazhamukil maalakale

Chelotha maadappiraavukale

Hey, the beautiful rain cloud garlands of sky

Hey, beautiful doves

Thulunaadan kalariyil poyvaraamo ente

Kurimaanam kondu nee nalkaamo

Can you go once to *Thulunadan Kalari?

Can you give him my message?

Maanathe mazhamukil maalakale

Chelotha maadappiraavukale

Hey, the beautiful rain cloud garlands of sky

Hey, beautiful doves

 

Mullappoobaananeppol meyyazhakulloren

Like the cupid with jasmine arrow,

Someone with beautiful body,

Mullappoobaananeppol meyyazhakulloren

Like the cupid with jasmine arrow,

Someone with beautiful body,

Kalyaana muracherukkanavideyallo

My marriage groom is there.

Kandaalo sundaran ente maaran

He is handsome, my groom

Karavaaleduthaalum karalalivullavan

Though he takes hand sword,

He is someone with melting heart

Maanathe mazhamukil maalakale

Chelotha maadappiraavukale

Hey, the beautiful rain cloud garlands of sky

Hey, beautiful doves

 

Ezhaamkadalodi vanna veeraalippudavayumaay

With bridal dress,

Like the seventh sea came running,

Ezhaamkadalodi vanna veeraalippudavayumaay

With bridal dress,

Like the seventh sea came running,

Ennavan varumennu chodikkaamo?

When will he come, can you ask please?

Poometha neerthi njaan kaathirikkum

Mattippaal pukachu njaan kaathirikkum

I shall spread flower bed & wait for him

I shall smoke perfumed stain (of *Matti)

And wait for him

Maanathe mazhamukil maalakale

Chelotha maadappiraavukale

Hey, the beautiful rain cloud garlands of sky

Hey, beautiful doves

Thulunaadan kalariyil poyvaraamo ente

Kurimaanam kondu nee nalkaamo

Can you go once to *Thulunadan Kalari?

Can you give him my message?

Maanathe mazhamukil maalakale

Chelotha maadappiraavukale

Hey, the beautiful rain cloud garlands of sky

Hey, beautiful doves

 

*Matti Paal – Stain from Matti tree

*Kalari is the place where Kalaripayattu taught
