Idi Mazha Katt’s Aazhathil Lyrics Translation
The meaning of the lyrics develops this comparison, stating that minds are filled with countless treasures. These valuables are described as hiding deep down, where no one can see them. The song directly addresses those who are blind to this inner worth, unable to distinguish treasure from trash.
AndakadahamA cosmic cauldron
AthinteyadiyilAt its very bottom
Ettavumadiyilulla Oru AndakadahamA cosmic cauldron at the deepest core
Angane CheruthonnumallaIt’s not some small thing
Oru Valiya Niraye Niraye Ulla OnnuA vast one, filled to the absolute brim
EnthullathuWhat’s inside it?
NidhiTreasure
Palarudeyum Vendathum VendaathathumThe wanted and unwanted things of many
Kittiyathum Eduthondu OdiyathumThings that were found and things that were snatched away
Anganeyangane SarvvasampannamaayaAnd so, an all-abundant
Oru AndakadahamCosmic cauldron
Manushyante ManassupoleJust like the human mind
EnganeHow so?
ManassuThe mind
Niramulla Nidhi Niramillatha NidhiTreasures with color and treasures without
Valuthu Cheruthu Pazhayathu PuthiyathuThe large and the small, the old and the new
The track builds through a repeating refrain about things buried deep in the earth. This sung chorus alternates with the spoken-word sections. This structure reinforces the idea of searching through internal layers to find value.
