Oru Manju Thulliyil Song from Akasha Ganga – Lyrics in English with Translation

Oru manju thulliyil

Suvarnna marivillu veenalinjuvo

Did a golden rainbow fell down &

Dissolved in a dew drop?

Oru kunju poovil varshamegham

Umma vachu peythozhinjuvo

Did a rain cloud kissed a small flower,

& Dissolved, pouring down?

Jadayirangi malayirangi maramirangi mannirangi

Amara ganga ozhuki ethum pralayam

Akasha ganga vannu moodum pulakam

Alighting *Jada (Long hair of Shiva),

Alighting mountain,

Alighting tree and earth,

This love is like

Immortal Ganga flowing down as flood,

And is a tingle

Which fully wraps like Akasha Ganga (Milky Way)

Sundaram sughakaram

Ee madhura nimishamallee jeevitham

Beautiful… pleasure…

Isn’t it this sweet moment, the real life?

 

Kadarinju puzhayarinju

Kadal arinju thira niranju vaa

Letting know forest & lake,

Come as a filling wave, letting know the sea

Kattarinju mazhayarinju

Manthrakodi nanananaju

Kathirunna kanni mannil vaa

Letting know wind & rain,

And drenching your wedding dress

Come into the waiting soil (which is dry)

Chippi kandu muthu kandu

Mungi neernnu vaa

Watching shells & pearls,

Come, after having bath

Swargavathil nee thurannu –

Swarnna veena tha

Open the door of heaven &

Give me golden veena

Sundaram sughakaram

Ee sukritha nimishamallee jeevitham

Beautiful… pleasure…

Isn’t it this blissful moment, the real life?

Oru manju thulliyil

Suvarnna marivillu veenalinjuvo

Did a golden rainbow fell down &

Dissolved in a dew drop?

Oru kunju poovil varshamegham

Umma vachu peythozhinjuvo

Did a rain cloud kissed a small flower,

& Dissolved, pouring down?

 

Onnilonnaay chernnalinju

Mizhi niranju thuzha thuzhanju vaa

Dissolving in each other,

Come, filling eyes & rowing waters

Mannil veena minneduthu

Madiyilittu mudiyazhichu

Taking the mangalsutra locket that fell on earth,

Placing in lap & unlocking the hair,

Manthravaada sandhyayayi vaa

Come as the magical dusk.

Devadharuvil padarnnu poothirangi vaa

Devathe enikku ninte daahaveena tha

Spread in *Devadaru tree,

Blossom & come down.

Hey Devatha (Goddess),

Give me your veena of thirst

Sundaram sukhakaram

Ee pralaya lahariyalle jeevatham

Beautiful…pleasure…

Isn’t it this flooding intoxication, the real life?

Oru manju thulliyil

Suvarnna marivillu veenalinjuvo

Did a golden rainbow fell down &

Dissolved in a dew drop?

Oru kunju poovil varshamegham

Umma vachu peythozhinjuvo

Did a rain cloud kissed a small flower,

& Dissolved, pouring down?

Jadayirangi malayirangi maramirangi mannirangi

Amara ganga ozhuki ethum pralayam

Akasha ganga vannu moodum pulakam

Alighting *Jada (Long hair of Shiva),

Alighting mountain,

Alighting tree and earth,

This love is like

Immortal Ganga flowing down as flood,

And is a tingle

Which fully wraps like Akasha Ganga (Milky Way)

Sundaram sughakaram

Ee madhura nimishamallee jeevitham

Beautiful… pleasure…

Isn’t it this sweet moment, the real life?
