Oru Srilankan Sundari Inauh’s Anjalikooppi Nin Munnil Lyrics Translation

The verses shift from asking forgiveness for “aparaadham,” or failings, to wishing for a physical change. Later lines describe a longing to become a peacock feather caressing Krishna’s hair. This shows a desire for closeness rather than just pardon.

Anjalikooppi Nin Munnil KrishnaWith hands folded before you, Krishna
Karppoora Deepamaay UrukiyenLike a camphor flame, it has dissolved
Manavum KannaMy very soul, oh Kanna
Mizhikalil Nirayum Poykayil ViriyumBlooming in the pond that fills my eyes
Kamalam Ninakkaay Arppichu KannaIs a lotus I’ve surrendered to you, Kanna
En Aparaadhamellam PorukkenamePlease forgive all of my trespasses
KrishnaKrishna
Thulasi Maalayaay AninjirunnenkilIf only I had been the Tulasi garland you wear
Saraseeruhamaay Paadam PulkiyenkilIf I could have graced your feet like a lotus
Hari Naama KeerthanamaayAs a hymn praising the name of Hari
ShravichirunnenkilIf only you had listened
Aparaadhamellam PoruthenYou would have forgiven all my failings
Kanmaniye Anugraha ShankhileMy beloved, from the conch of your blessings
Naadhamaayi Maattoo Kanna KannaTransform me into its sacred sound, oh Kanna, Kanna
Karakasalayathil AlinjoruIf I had melted in the palm of your hand
VennayaayiJust like butter
Ghana Saara GandhiyaayLike the rich scent of camphor
Meyyil PadarnnenkilIf only I had spread across your body
Churul Mudi ThazhukumCaressing your curly hair
Mayilpeeli AayenkilIf only I had been a peacock feather
Aparaadhamellam PoruthenYou would have forgiven all my failings
Kanmaniye AnugrahamuraliMy beloved, from the flute of your blessings
Naadhamaayi Maattoo Kanna KannaTransform me into its sacred melody, oh Kanna, Kanna
Anjalikooppi Nin Munnil KrishnaWith hands folded before you, Krishna
Karppoora Deepamaay UrukiyenLike a camphor flame, it has dissolved
Manavum KannaMy very soul, oh Kanna
