Ithale Ponnithale Iniyee PoomadiyilOh petal, golden petal, in this lap of flowers
Pulari Tharakamaay PoothunaraaloWill you awaken, blooming like the morning star?
Mazhaye Manjalaye Kulirinnu UmayumaayOh rain, oh mist, with a gentle, cooling kiss
Kanavinnee Vazhiyil Kaathu NilkkaamoCan you wait for me on this path of dreams?
Mukiloru Vaarmazhavil MenyukayaayarikayeAs the clouds are painting a rainbow in the sky
