Prayam Nammil Moham Nalki
Moham Kannil Premam Nalki
Age gave us desire
Desire gave us love in our eyes
Premam Nenchil Ragam Nalki
Ragam Chundil Gaanam Nalki
Love gave us music in the heart
Music gave song to our lips
Gaanam Moolan Eenam Nalki
To hum a song, a tune was given.
Eenam Thedum Eeranthandil
Kaatin Kaikal Thaalam Thatti
In the bamboo stem searching tune,
Winds’ hands gave beat.
Thalakombathoonjaaladi

Koode Aadu Chola Mayile
Swinging in the branch of beat
Please sing, myna
Dance along with me, peacock

Please sing once, myna
Dance along with me, peacock

Why, all these days,
Sun sprinkled kumkum on you?
Which lily flowered in the moonlight of your eyes?

Nenchile Kinavil Cherthathee Roopam
How many millions of births,
Silently waited for you, your lover!
In the dream of his heart,
He added this image.

The flower plate of love is being exchanged every day,
Unfolds in front of us

Paala Pootha Kaavil Nammal
Kandumutti Aadyam Thammil
We met for the first time,
In the sacred mangrove where *Pala flowered
Pankuvachathetho
Kavithayaay Maari
Whatever we exchanged,
Became a poem
Maaripaitha Raavil Pinne
Yaathra Cholli Poya Neram
Orthuvachathoro Kadhakalaay Maari
Later, in the night with pouring rain,
When we parted, saying good bye,
Whatever stayed in our memory
Became some stories.
Swargavaathil Paathichari
Devakanya Nee
Paattil Paranjathenthe
Hey celestial fairy,
Who half-closed door of heaven,
What did you tell in song?
Swargavaathil Paathichari

Hey celestial fairy,
Who half-closed door of heaven,
What did you tell in song?
Melemaanathe Nakshathra Pookal
Muthayi Pozhinjidum Theerathu (M/F)
On the shores where
Star flowers of sky upwards,
Poured down as pearls…
Onnu Paadu Naattu Maine
Koode Aadu Chola Mayile
Please sing once, myna
Dance along with me, hey peacock
Onnu Paadu Naattu Maine
Koode Aadu Chola Mayile…
Please sing once, myna
Dance along with me, hey peacock
Onnu Paadu Naattu Maine
Koode Aadu Chola Mayile (Chorus)
Please sing once, myna
Dance along with me, hey peacock
