Sthanarthi Sreekkuttan’s Enthanu Enthanu Lyrics Translation
The lyrics later ask when others will see them as grown-ups instead of just kids. This confident question dismisses small worries, claiming harsh sun feels like grass. Their ambition is to carve a path through any crowd and cross any distance.
Enthanu EnthanuWhat is it? What is it?
Chiri PadaranathenthanuWhy is this laughter spreading?
Muttayi Thundonnaliyana PolaanuIt’s like a piece of candy melting.
Enthanu EnthanuWhat is it? What is it?
Kan VidaranathenthanuWhy are these eyes opening wide?
Ullaake Poothiri Kathana ChelaanuIt’s the sight of a sparkler igniting deep inside.
Podipaarana NeramIn a moment that kicks up dust,
Thudi Kotti Payyewith the soft beat of a thrill,
Mudiyizhayathu Kothi Minukkiya Pokkaanuit’s the way you go, after styling a single strand of hair.
Eri Veyilathu PullaannuThe scorching sun is just grass to us.
Adi ThadayillayyaaA single blow won’t stop me.
Mani Mazhayathu Vazhiye Peythaa VeezhoolaaI won’t fall if a sweet rain pours down on the path.
Kai ThattikottaanTo clap our hands,
Pada Vetti Pokaanto carve a path through the crowd,
Tholattam Mutti Dhooram Thaandaamwe can cross any distance, bumping shoulders all the way.
Ullam Kaal VachaalOnce I’ve put my foot down,
Pinnottonnillathere’s no turning back.
Cheru Thottaavadi ThandallaI’m not some fragile ‘touch-me-not’ stem.
Ellarum Chollunne Pilleraanennu!Everyone says we’re just kids!
Ennaano Chollunne Moothoraayennu?So when will they say we’ve finally grown up?
Ennennum Ellorum Onnenna CholluThe saying goes that we’re all one forever.
Ellaam Innezhuthi Koottaan Kadalaassin ThunduA slip of paper is enough to write it all down today.
Mele Vinnilaay Minni Maayumaa Minnalil Ninnu KoothaaduDance in the lightning that flashes and fades high in the sky.
Kanthurannu Nee KaanmpathokkeyumEverything you see with your eyes wide open,
Ninteyennu Nee Chollidudeclare that it is yours.

Paaraake PaarenamMust fly across the whole world.
Bhoolokam KaanenamMust see the entire globe.
Ee Naado ChuttenamMust wander this whole country.
Thari Manalathilila VeyilaadenamMust bask in the sun on a single grain of sand.
Vaanolam ValarenamMust grow as high as the sky.
Rasamaayi PaadenamMust sing with delight.
Puthu Vazhiye PaayenamMust rush down a brand new path.
Cheru Chirimazha Niramazha NanayenamMust get drenched in a light rain of smiles, a downpour of joy.
Maanathe Pooram KaanenamMust see the grand festival in the sky.
Paal Chundil Choolam MoolenamMust hum a whistle on milk-sweet lips.
Oru Vennilaave ThottuTouching a sliver of the moonlight,
Cheru Koottil Kettanothuas if to trap it in a small cage,
Athinunnam Pidichittutaking aim right at it,
Iniyoottam Konde NinnuI stood there, ready for another race.
Minni MaanjidumFlashing and then vanishing,
Kanneerukkidummaking my eyes squint,
Thaaragangale NokkeedumI will watch the distant stars.
Kai Koduppathum ChaanjurangidumGiving a hand and leaning to rest,
Maarivilline Mutheedumwe’ll go and touch the rainbow.
Panjippolora MeghamaalayeA garland of clouds like cotton,
Enni Nokkidaan Kothiyaavumyou feel a deep desire to count them all.
Minnalinte Pada VaalithethidaanTo reach for the lightning’s own battle sword,
Chattam Ketti Porumwe’ll leap up and fight for it.
Ammaanam Chemmaanam NokkaatheppozhumNever looking at this sky or that one,
Aadunne Paadunne Kunji Kaattennumthe little wind is always dancing, always singing.
