Raavin Nilaakayal Song from Mazhavillu – Lyrics in English with Translation
Ravin nila kayal
Olam thulumbunnu
Nanam mayangum ponnambal
Premardramakunnu (F)
The deep lake of night is spilling waves
The shy lily is turning romantic
Pallitheril ninnekkanan
Vannethunnu vellithinkal
In the royal chariot, to see you
Is coming, the silver moon
Rajani geethangal pole
Veendum kelpoo…
Sneha veenanaadham…
Like night melodies, again heard
Romantic tunes in Veena
Azhakin ponthoovalil neyen
Kavithayo..pranayamo..
In golden feather of beauty,
Are you a poem?
Are you love?
Ravin nila kayal
Olam thulumbunnu
Nanam mayangum ponnambal
Premardramakunnu
The deep lake of night is spilling waves
The shy lily is turning romantic
Olathumbil olanjaali
Thengi virahardram
In the leaf tip treepie bird sobbed
In separation
Odakombil olam thulli
Kattin kuralaram
In a tree branch,
Wind’s *Kolaralam spilled waves
Neeyevide…..
Neeyevide Chaithraravin
Omalale poru nee
Where are you…..
Where are you,
The sweetheart of Chaithram night,
Come please
Ravin nila kayal
Olam thulumbunnu
Nanam mayangum ponnambal
Premardramakunnu
The deep lake of night is spilling waves
The shy lily is turning romantic
Peelikavil varnnam peythu
Engum poomazhayaay
Colours rained in *Peelikavu
Flowers rain everywhere.
Ninne thedi neelakaasham
Minni pon tharam
Blue sky searched for you,
A star twinkled for you
Eni varumo…..
Eni varumo shyama sandhya ragame
En munnil nee
Will you come again…
Will you come again
The black *Sandhyaragam,
In front of me?
Ravin nila kayal
Olam thulumbunnu
Nanam mayangum ponnambal
Premardramakunnu
The deep lake of night is spilling waves
The shy lily is turning romantic
End note:
*Kolaralam – Ornaments worn in the bosom by female characters in Kathakali
*Peelikavu – A sacred mangrove with the name Peelikavu
*Sandhyaragam – Can be an evening tune, or evening love, or a tune named ‘sandhya’/dusk
