Hridayapoorvam’s Karayathe Lyrics Translation

The lyrics ask where else a father would go besides being near his child. He promises that even when she grows as tall as the sky, she can sleep in the cradle of his hands. This assurance defines his role as a constant protector.

Ennomal PoonkurunneMy precious little bud,
Novenni Parayaathe Nee NjaanDon’t you speak of your pain.
Verengum PoyillalloI haven’t gone anywhere else, you know,
Nee Ariyaathe ArikeyilleAren’t I right here, even when you can’t see?
Nin ChaareyallaatheOther than right by your side,
Njaanengu ChennirikkaanWhere else would I possibly go?
Nin Kanmunnil NjaanillayoAren’t I right here before your eyes,
Achante PonmakaleMy precious daughter?
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
Kunjupoovin PaadamA little flower’s feet,
Picha Vekkum NaalilTaking their first steps,
Kunnolam SwapnangalaayBecame a mountain of dreams for me.
Thaaraatteennam KettuHearing the rhythm of a lullaby,
Kankal Chimmum NeramThe moment your eyes closed,
Raavaake ThaarangalaayThe whole night filled with stars.
Thullimazhapol ChirimaniyaalWith a laugh that chimed like a raindrop,
Nee Ullil Thullum VellikkolusaayYou became a silver anklet, dancing in my heart.
Vaanolam ValarnnaalumEven when you grow as tall as the sky,
En Kaithan Kumpilkkootil UranguYou can sleep in the cradle of my hands.
Ennum Thanalaavaan EeTo always be your shade,
Kanalaattum KuliraakuvaanTo be the coolness for your burning embers,
Nin Kanmunnil NjaanillayoAren’t I right here before your eyes,
Achante PonmakaleMy precious daughter?
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
Ennomal PoonkurunneMy precious little bud,
Novenni Parayaathe NeeDon’t you speak of your pain.
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
Karayaathe KarayaatheDon’t cry, don’t cry.
