Ponnitta Pettakam Song from Pranaya Nilavu – Lyrics in English with Translation
Ponnitta pettakam poottalle
Ath thannathenikkee muthalle
Kanninum kannayi vannille
Ilam kanni nilavin vilakkalle
It’s a box with gold, with a lock
What it gave me is this pearl.
It came as precious even more than eyes
Is it not the lamp of tender moonlight?
Kanikaanaan oru poomottu
Kathil oru thaaratt
Kannaam thumbi thenoott
A flower bud to see *kani (first sight)
A lullaby for ears
Hey dragonfly, feed with honey
Ponnitta pettakam poottalle
Ath thannathenikkee muthalle
Kanninum kannayi vannille
Ilam kanni nilavin vilakkalle
It’s a box with gold, with a lock
What it gave me is this pearl.
It came as precious even more than eyes
Is it not the lamp of tender moonlight?
Thankam ninne kaanaan
Innu thamara pookal vannu
Konchum paalmozhi kelkkan
Oru panchavarnnakkili vannu
Hey, gold, to see you
Lotus flowers came today
To listen to your sweet words
A bird with five colours also came.
Kai viralaal nee thodumbol
Manchiradil pon velicham
Ente punyam polaa sindhooram
When you touch with your finger
Golden flame in an earthen lamp
That shade, like my blessings
Ponnitta pettakam poottalle
Ath thannathenikkee muthalle
Kanninum kannayi vannille
Ilam kanni nilavin vilakkalle
It’s a box with gold, with a lock
What it gave me is this pearl.
It came as precious even more than eyes
Is it not the lamp of tender moonlight?
Thaazhampoove ninne
Mizhi thenmazhayil njan moodum
Neeradum nin munnil
Mani thaarakal kaaval nilkkum
Hey *Thazhampoo (Fragrant screw pine flower)
I shall wrap you in the honey rain of my eyes
While you are bathing,
Beautiful stars will guard in front of you
Annamaayi nee punchirikkum
Ammaye pol snehamoottum
Nira pournamiyallo neeyennum
You will smile like a swan
Will feed love like a mother
Are you not full moon every day?
Ponnitta pettakam poottalle
Ath thannathenikkee muthalle
Kanninum kannayi vannille
Ilam kanni nilavin vilakkalle
It’s a box with gold, with a lock
What it gave me is this pearl.
It came as precious even more than eyes
Is it not the lamp of tender moonlight?
Kanikaanaan oru poomottu
Kathil oru thaaratt
Kannaam thumbi thenoott
A flower bud to see *kani (first sight)
A lullaby for ears
Hey dragonfly, feed with honey
Ponnitta pettakam poottalle
Ath thannathenikkee muthalle
Kanninum kannayi vannille
Ilam kanni nilavin vilakkalle
It’s a box with gold, with a lock
What it gave me is this pearl.
It came as precious even more than eyes
Is it not the lamp of tender moonlight?
