Palavattam Pookkalam Song from Manichitrathaazhu – Lyrics in English with Translation

Palavattam Pookkalam lyrics

Palavattam pookkalam

Vazhithetti poyittangorunaalum pookkaamankombil

Priyamulloralaro varuvanundennu

Poonkuyilonnu padipparanju

Poonkuyilonnu Padipparanju

Many times, spring lost its path

And reaches the branch of the mango tree –

Which never blossoms…

In that tree branch,

Sitting one cuckoo, singing & saying,

Someone dear is to come

 

Ninayathanerathen padivathilil

Oru padavinyasam kettapole

Varavayalorunalum piriyatha madhumasam

Oru mathra konduvannallo

Oru mathra Konduvannallo

At an unexpected moment,

I felt like,

Someone’s footsteps at my doorstep

Is it that *Madhu month,

That a single moment brought in,

Which never goes if in case comes in?

Today, did that single moment bring the *Madhu month??

 

Kothiyode odippoy padivathilil chennen

Mizhirandum neettunna neram

Niraye thalirkkunnu pookkunnu kaaykkunnu

Kanavinte thenmavin komb

Ente karalile thenmavin komb

The moments when I run with desire,

Reach the front door

And extend both my eyes,

Is fully sprouting, blossoming & bearing fruits,

The mango tree branch of dreams

The branch of the mango tree in my heart

 

*Madhu month – March-April, when the mango tree blossoms
