Oru puzhayarikil, cheru thanalukalil
ninnidaam oru nimisham
[On a river bank, under light shades
let me stand for a moment]
Mizhi nirayuvathum kaanaathe, chiri vidaruvathum kaanaathe
pakalukal raavukal maayumbol,…
[Without seeing my eyes fill (with tears), without registering my smiles
when the days and nights pass by,…]
oru puzhayarikil cheru thanalukalil
Ninnidaam oru nimisham
[on a river bank, under light shades
let me stand for a moment]

Veenu maayunna nilaavil mukil jaalakathinu pinnil
doore saagaram nokki oru mooka thaaravum nilppu
[Under the slowly disappearing moonlight, behind the window of clouds
and looking at the ocean afar, stands a silent star]
Idavazhiyil, ilayaal moodi
marayum oru en kaalppaadundo?
[In the bylanes, covered by leaves
are there my footsteps concealed underneath them?]
Kaanaathe…
Kaanaathe karuthiya karivala than chirikalaal maravilundo?
[Hiding…
Are they(footsteps) hiding along with the giggles of the black bangles (I wear) without showing anyone?]

Aadya laalanam aelkke, hridayaantharaalam ulanjum
Aarudeyo kinaavil, udalaake mungi alinjum
[With the first caress, shaking me deep inside
In some random dream, dissolving the whole of me]
maravikalil, panineer thooki
kulirum en neduveerppundo?
[in forgotten memories, exuding fragrance
offering pleasant chills, my sighs(are they)?]
Ariyaathe…
aekaantha nishakalil punar janikkum smrithikalaal kadavilundo?
[Without realizing…
with the memories which take birth again on lonely nights, are they(sighs) staying on the river banks?]

Oru puzhayarikil cheru thanalukalil
Ninnidaam oru nimisham
[On a river bank, under light shades
let me stand for a moment]
