Mounangal mindum oru ee nerathu
Mohangal peyyum oru ee theerathu
[In this time where silences speak
On this shore where wishes shower from above]
Ithu vare thirayuvathu ellam
Manassin ithalil ariya shalabhamaayi varavaayi..
[Till now all that I was searching for,
in my mind’s petals, are arriving as beautiful butterflies]
Innu en nenjam neelakasham…
[Today my mind is like the vast blue sky]
Mounangal mindum oru ee nerathu
Mohangal peyyum oru ee theerathu
[In this time where silences speak
On this shore where wishes shower from above]
Ithu vare thirayuvathu ellam
Manassin ithalil ariya shalabhamaayi varavaayi..
[Till now all that I was searching for,
in my mind’s petals, are arriving as beautiful butterflies]
Innu en nenjam neelakasham…
[Today my mind is like the vast blue sky]
Parichitham etho parimalam aayi,
ariyukayaayi njaan, ennil ninne
[Like a familiar fragrance,
I’m feeling you in me]
Veruthey alanju… ennal arikilithaa nee
enne thazhuki unarthaan, engo ninnum
[I was wandering… but here you are
to caress me awake, from somewhere]
Premathaal maathram mizhikalil vidarum
Peru illa pookkal kaanukayaayi njaan
[With only love, blooming in my eyes
these nameless flowers, I’m starting to see]
Ariyuvathu aaru aanu aadyam…mozhiyuvathu aaru aanu aadyam
Anuragathin maaya manthram kaathil
[Who will realize first?…who will confess first?
this love’s magic endearments in the other’s ears?]
Innu en nenjam neelakasham…
[Today my mind is like the vast blue sky]
Hrithayam ithu etho, pranaya nilaavil*
aliyukayaayi, ven megham aayi
[My heart, in some love daze,
is dissipating as a white cloud]
Oru cheru sooryan, pole minungi
Hima kanamaam en, moham melle**
[Like a tiny sun, did twinkle,
the snow flake that my desire is]
Aazhathil, meenayi, neenthi varoo nee
Aakaasham neele, paari varoo nee
[In the deep waters, like a fish, swim to me
In the vast skies, (like a bird,) fly to me]
Padaruka aanu engum, theliyuka aanu engum
mizhiyorathil ninnu ee raagonmaadam
[It (Love) is spreading everywhere, it is revealing all over
starting from the eyes, like some crazy music]
Innu en nenjam neelakasham…
[Today my mind is like the vast blue sky]
Mounangal mindum oru ee nerathu
Mohangal peyyum oru ee theerathu
[In this time where silences speak
On this shore where wishes shower from above]
Ithu vare thirayuvathu ellam
Manassin ithalil ariya shalabhamaayi varavaayi..
[Till now all that I was searching for,
in my mind’s petals, are arriving as beautiful butterflies]
Innu en nenjam neelakasham…
[Today my mind is like the vast blue sky]
* Pranayam is love and nilaavu is moonlight. pranaya nilavu is used figuratively to compare the feeling to a beautiful moonlit night.
** Desire(likened to a snow flake) is twinkling, like a tiny sun.
