Pulayanar Maniyamma Song from Prasadam – Lyrics in English with Translation

Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
Aalimaarothu koodi aambalpookkadavinkal
Aayilyappoonilaavil kulikkaan poy
Along with friends,
On the banks of the lily pond,
She went to take a bath,
In the moonlight of Ayilyam star day
Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
Aralikal pookkunna karayilappol ninna
Malaveda cherukkante manam thudichu
On the riverbank where neriums blossom,
A hunter boy standing there then,
His heart started beating
Aralikal pookkunna karayilappol ninna
Malaveda cherukkante manam thudichu
On the riverbank where neriums blossom,
A hunter boy standing there then,
His heart started beating
Avalude paattinte lahariyil avan mungi
Ilam kaatililakunna valli pole
He sank in the intoxication of her song,
Like a vine moving in a gentle breeze
Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
Kelineeraattinu kalichirangee aval
Thaalathil paattu paadi thudichirangee
For the royal bath, she went down in a fun mood,
Singinga song in rhythm, she went down, swimming
Kelineeraattinu kalichirangee aval
Thaalathil paattu paadi thudichirangee
For the royal bath, she went down in a fun mood,
Singing a song in rhythm, she went down, swimming
Avalude netiyile varamanjal kuriyaale
Aruviyil chemponnin podi kalangee
In the turmeric on her forehead,
The golden powder dissolved in the stream
Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
Aalimaarothu koodi aambalpookkadavinkal
Aayilyappoonilaavil kulikkaan poy
Along with friends,
On the banks of the lily pond,
She went to take a bath,
In the moonlight of Ayilyam star day
Pulayanaar maniyamma poomullakkaavilamma
Kalamaante mizhiyulla kalithathamma
Pulayanar Maniyamma,
The lady of the flowering jasmine mangrove,
Playful parrot with the eyes of a doe…
