Sharreth • From “Nalpathiyonnu”
What is the meaning of Ayyanayyanayyan Lyrics from Nalpathiyonnu?
Rafeeq Ahammed describes life as a road journey. The poet notes, ‘We’re weary travelers living in rented sheds by the roadside.’ He shows greed hoarding coins for tomorrow.
Ayyanayyanayyan AyyanayyanayyanLord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa…
Ayyanayyanayyan AyyanayyanayyanLord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa…
Njanennoru Bhaavam AliyukayaayThe sense of ‘I’ is slowly dissolving away.
Neeyenna Vichaaram OzhiyumaathmasarassilIn the lake of the soul, thoughts of ‘you’ fade into nothing.
Sakalathum Nee Sakalathum NjaanYou are everything, and I am everything.
Paramasathyathin PorulathonnarywooRealize that the essence of ultimate truth is one.
Kaananullathu Kandariyum KanninappuramaayeeExisting beyond the eye that only sees the visible world.
Kaanum Kanninu Kaazchayaakum KaaranapporulaayeeBecoming the source that grants sight to the seeing eye.
Ayyanayyanayyan AyyanayyanayyanLord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa…
Munnilullathakhilam IndriyaandhanadanamEverything before us is just a blind dance of the senses.
Kaalapperumpaampin VaayilirunnittumEven while trapped in the mouth of Time’s great python,
Thinapekshikkum PoleWe still beg for scraps of food.
Paanthar Thaantharaay Paathavakkile Vaadakappura VaazhumWe’re weary travelers living in rented sheds by the roadside.
Rakurakkathil Croorasarppathe Thaan ThalayinayaakkiIn our sleep, we rest our heads on a cruel serpent.
Naale Ravile Nedivekkenda Naanayakkothi KollumWe’re consumed by greed, hoarding coins for tomorrow morning.
Thaanaam Midhyaye Thaalolikkunnu Tholil MruthyuvumaayiWe pamper the illusion of ‘self’ while carrying death on our shoulders.
Thirichoral Pogilla Thanupporal ThookillaNo one returns, and no one can take your place,
Chithaykku Naam OonaakaveWhen we eventually become food for the funeral pyre.
Ayyanayyanayyan AyyanayyanayyanLord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa…
Ayyanayyanayyan AyyanayyanayyanLord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ayyappa…

Peedayoralkkum VaruthaathirikkuvaanTo ensure we cause no pain to anyone,
Thedalee JeevithasaaramSeeking this path is the true essence of life.
Swaamiye Kaanukayaarilum AthaanathmadarshanamoolyamSeeing the Lord in everyone is the true value of self-realization.
Jaathibhedangal Maayakal Neengi Njanamaam Mala KereeClearing the illusions of caste, I’ve climbed the mountain of the self.
Thaazheyethumbol Naam Marakkarutheka JeevithabhaavamWhen we return, we mustn’t forget that all life is one.
Naanaajeevakulangalithottayaam Noolaal BandhithamaamDiverse species are all bound together by a single thread.
Thanichoralaalalla Thanikku Thaan PorillaWe aren’t meant to be alone; we aren’t enough on our own.
Parasparam VunnaakaneLet us be the sustenance for one another.
