The poet mentions jeweled frangipani flowers on the sheets, creating a fragrant blanket for the soul. ‘This night’s dissolving into moonlight wine’ is a line that lingers, painting a dreamy escape.
Kaattil Ee Jaalakam Paathi ChaarunnuThis window in the woods is closing halfway now
Mullakal Poomanam ThuvinilkkunnuJasmines are standing still, showering their perfume
Devadaaruvine ManjunarthunnuThe morning mist is waking the cedar tree
Mezhuthiri Naalamaay SwasamulayunnuMy breath’s flickering like a candle’s flame
Kaattil Ee Jaalakam Paathi ChaarunnuThis window in the woods is closing halfway now
Mullakal Poomanam ThuvinilkkunnuJasmines are standing still, showering their perfume
Virikalil Vitharumee Manimalar ChempakamThese jeweled Frangipani flowers strewn on the sheets
Udalukal Pothiyuvaan Surabhiyaam CombalamA fragrant blanket to wrap around our souls
Neehaaranizhalukal Uthirnnu VeezhaveAs the misty shadows shed and fall down
Ee Ravin Saubhagam ThulumpininnuvoDid the night’s blessing overflow its cup?
NilaanaalamaadininnuvoDid the moon’s golden flame dance in delight?
Vennilaa Veenjil Ee RavumaliyunnuThis night’s dissolving into moonlight wine
Chanchalam Thaarakal KannuchimmunnuThe restless stars are blinking their eyes
Mazhaviral Thazhukumaa Harithamaam SaanuvilOn the green valley that the rain’s finger strokes
Kuthirumo Shilakalum Himaakanam PolaveyWill even the stones get soaked like tiny snowflakes?
Souvarnabhoomiye Thalodi NeenguvaanTo drift away after caressing the golden earth
Aashaadamukilukal IrangivannuvoDid the monsoon clouds descend from the sky?
Kina JwaalayaadininnuvoDid the flame of dreams keep dancing?
Theruthere Nanunane ManjuveezhunnuSoftly and steadily, the mist’s falling down
Vennilaa Veenjil Ee RavumaliyunnuThis night’s dissolving into moonlight wine
Devadaaruvine ManjunarthunnuThe morning mist is waking the cedar tree
Mezhuthiri Naalamaayi SwasamulayunnuMy breath’s flickering like a candle’s flame
Kaattil Ee Jaalakam Paathi ChaarunnuThis window in the woods is closing halfway now
Mullakal Poomanam ThuvinilkkunnuJasmines are standing still, showering their perfume
