Ooo bujji kutty
Un paarva
Naan vaazha uyiraachu
Ye bujji kutty
Like a camphor flame flickering in the wind,
My life trembles, my love, without hearing your voice.
Like the bright moon covered by clouds,
Sorrow covers me, girl, without seeing your face.
Like a spark caught in a stormy wind,
I am completely scattered, my girl.
Your words,
Are the breath I need to live.
Oh, my darling Bujji Kutty,
Your gaze,
Has become my very life.
Hey, my darling Bujji Kutty.
Mmm mm mm
Like a river without water,
Like a root without soil,
I stand helpless without you.
You are killing me without ending my life.
I touch your feet and plead,
I swear upon my eyes,
I will never leave your side,
And I will protect you from any pain.
I sailed across the entire salty sea,
And came back without fear, my girl,
Yet in a single drop of your tears,
I am slowly drowning.
Your words,
Are the breath I need to live.
Oh, my darling Bujji Kutty,
Your gaze,
Has become my very life.
Hey, my darling Bujji Kutty.
You and I are so far apart,
A waterfall of tears flows from my eyes,
My whole heart is broken,
You are my only anchor.
How should I beg you?
How much should I coax you?
To melt your heart,
What more must I do?
There is no wind or drizzle of rain,
There is no pit beneath my feet,
Yet without knowing any reason,
I am sinking deep inside.
Your words,
Are the breath I need to live.
Oh, my darling Bujji Kutty,
Your gaze,
Has become my very life.
Hey, my darling Bujji Kutty.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This soulful romantic track expresses the protagonist's profound longing and emotional vulnerability when separated from his beloved. He compares his fragile state without her presence to camphor in the wind, a cloud-covered moon, and a river without water. Her voice, gaze, and love serve as his literal breath and foundation for living, making her sadness or distance unbearable for him. Despite braving harsh ocean storms in his profession, he finds himself completely overwhelmed and melted by a single tear from her eyes.
