Thee mootti thee mootti
Nenjaankootta paththa vechcha
Kaattuppaechi nee kaattuppaechi nee
Thaalaatti thaalaatti
Pachchapulla yenga vechcha
Paattuppaechchi nee paattuppaechchi nee
Rasaththi un nenappu
Karuvakkaattu mullaachudi
Adi aaththi un siripu
Puliyaankaattu poovaachudi
Pora nee vaakkapaattu
Udanjen naan yekkaapattu
Marudhaani needhaandi
Manaselaam un niramdhaandi
Adiye podi…
Nee podi
Unna thedi enna thedi
En usurum odudhu
Udambo veguthu
Manjanathi adiye manjanathi
Nee theekkoluthi theekkoluthi
Theekkoluthi theekkoluthi
Adiye machi veettu mayile
En manasu podum maaraappu melae
Un paasam yeriyuthadi
Adhula en aasa thudikkuthadi
Adiye machi veettu mayile
Un thavippu podum thandaara osa

Lighting a fire, lighting a fire,
You set my chest ablaze.
You wild spirit, oh wild spirit,
Singing lullabies, singing lullabies,
You left this innocent heart aching.
You song enchantress, oh song enchantress.
My princess, the thought of you
Wears wild jasmine from the thorny woods.
Oh goodness, your smile
Wears blooms from the tamarind grove.
You are leaving, married away to another,
And I broke apart in yearning.
You are like henna, girl,
My whole heart is stained in your color.
Oh girl, go on...
Just go.
Searching for you, searching for myself,
My soul is running away,
And my body is burning up.
Manjanathi (folk tree), oh Manjanathi,
You are a flame, setting fires,
Setting fires, setting fires.
Oh peacock of the upstairs home,
Over the veil cast across my heart,
Your love burns fiercely,
And inside it, my longing throbs.
Oh peacock of the upstairs home,
The ringing chime of your restless ache
Shatters the cage of my chest,
And your scent slips inside.
Your scent slips inside,
Shattering the cage of my chest.
My desire bursts open,
While your love burns on.
Your scent slips inside,
Shattering the cage of my chest.
My desire bursts open,
While your love burns on.
My adorned gem with a forehead mark,
My living portrait painted so fine,
As you walk away with flowers in your hair,
I catch fire and die inside.
I catch fire and die inside.
I catch fire and die inside.
You climb up the mountain and leave,
While I sink into the soil.
You reach the shore and walk away,
While I drift into the ocean.
Blending like wind into the wind,
Like a dream into a dream,
Like light blending into light,
Like pain joining with pain,
You are going somewhere far away,
Going somewhere far away,
Going somewhere far away.
My princess, the thought of you
Wears wild jasmine from the thorny woods.
Oh goodness, your smile
Wears blooms from the tamarind grove.
You are leaving, married away to another,
And I broke apart in yearning.
You are like henna, girl,
My whole heart is stained in your color.
Oh girl, go on...
Just go.
Searching for you, searching for myself,
My soul is running away,
And my body is burning up.
Manjanathi (folk tree), oh Manjanathi,
You are a flame, setting fires,
Setting fires, fire, fire, setting fires,
Fire, fire, setting fires.
Oh graceful girl of a single word,
Over the veil cast across my heart,
Your love burns fiercely,
And inside it, my longing throbs.
Oh graceful girl of a single word,
The ringing chime of your restless ache
Shatters the cage of my chest,
And your scent slips inside.
Your scent slips inside,
Shattering the cage of my chest.
My longing throbs inside,
While your love burns on.
Your scent slips inside,
Shattering the cage of my chest.
Your love burns on,
And my longing throbs inside... yeah yeah yeah...
