Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en kaadhali
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un kan vazhi
Nillaamalae nee povadhaen
Sollaamalae naan novadhaen yen
Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en vaasalil
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un paarvaiyil
Maan thullum malaiyaalathin
Ezhil chithiramae chithiramae
Vaazhaiyum ilaneeraiyum konda
Nannilamae nannilamae
Kerala kuyil koovidum
Isai thitthithadho thitthithadho
Aavani thiruvonathil
Unnai sandhitthadho sandhitthadho
Ponnallo siru poovallo
Mella thodavo ennai tharavo
Thaenallo pasum paalallo
Pakkam varavo naan tharavo
Semmeengal thulludhae
Ingum angum kan odaiyil
Sandhosham pongudhae
Munnum pinnum un koodalil
Naan sollavao chinna poo allavo
Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en kaadhali
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un kan vazhi
Nillaamalae nee povadhaen
Sollaamalae naan novadhaen yen
Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en kaadhali
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un kan vazhi
Nee vara edhir paarthadhu
Indha nandhavanam nandhavanam
Nee thoda ingu poothadhu
Indha sengamalam sengamalam
Kaamanin kalai kaanbadhu
Indha andhappuram andhappuram
Poo mara kuyil koovudhu
Ingu saptha swaram saptha swaram
Manjamae intha nenjamae
Sugam panjamo ingu konjamo
Ullamae inba vellamae
unnai allavo alli chellavo
Andraadam saervadhu
Mannaa mannaa un pon madi
Ennaalum inbamae
Neeyae neeyae en paingili
Poo mangaiyae pongidum gangaiyae
Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en vaasalil
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un paarvaiyil
Nillaamalae nee povadhaen
Sollaamalae naan novadhaen yen
Nillaadha vennilaa
Nillu nillu en vaasalil
Sollaadha pon mozhi
Sollu sollu un paarvaiyil
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop, my beloved!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your eyes!
Why do you walk away without stopping?
Why must I ache in pain without you saying a word? Why?
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop at my doorstep!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your gaze!
From the Kerala land where deers leap,
Oh beautiful painting, lovely painting!
Rich with banana groves and tender coconuts,
Oh fertile land, fertile land!
Did the melody sung by the Kerala cuckoo
Taste so sweet, so sweet?
During the Onam festival in the month of Aavani,
Did it meet you, did it meet you?
Aren't you precious gold? Aren't you a little flower?
Shall I gently touch you? Shall I give myself to you?
Aren't you sweet honey? Aren't you fresh cow's milk?
Shall I come close? Shall I offer my love?
Red fishes are leaping
Here and there in the streams of your eyes!
Joy overflows
Before and after in our sweet union!
Shall I speak my heart? Am I not a delicate flower?
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop, my beloved!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your eyes!
Why do you walk away without stopping?
Why must I ache in pain without you saying a word? Why?
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop, my beloved!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your eyes!
Waiting for your arrival
Was this flower garden, this flower garden!
What blossomed here at your touch
Is this red lotus, this red lotus!
What witnesses the art of the love god
Is this private chamber, this private chamber!
The cuckoo in the flowering tree sings
The seven musical notes here, all seven notes!
This heart of mine is a soft bed,
Is pleasure scarce or lacking here?
My heart is a flood of sweet joy,
Is it not you that I should scoop up and carry away?
The place where I rest every day
Is your golden lap, oh my king, my king!
It is pure happiness every single day,
You and you alone are my sweet parrot!
Oh beautiful flower, oh overflowing river Ganga!
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop at my doorstep!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your gaze!
Why do you walk away without stopping?
Why must I ache in pain without you saying a word? Why?
Oh restless white moon,
Stop, please stop at my doorstep!
Words of gold left unspoken,
Speak them, speak them through your gaze!
