Ohh Cinderella’s Kattuchembakam Malayalam Lyrics English Translation
Suji Bava describes nature’s celebration: ‘In the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.’ He paints the river preparing to cradle the wind’s child and honey oozing on mango trees. Nature becomes a playful gathering of parrots and dragonflies.
Kaattu Kunjinu Charadu Kettan PuzhayorugunneThe river prepares for the naming ceremony of the wind’s child.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaathuvechoru Chakkara Maavilu Then KinijenneOn the long-awaited sweet mango tree, honey has begun to ooze.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaathuvechoru Chakkara Maavilu Then KinijenneOn the long-awaited sweet mango tree, honey has begun to ooze.
Etha Kombilu Thottilu Kettan Kadanna KoodorukkuOn which branch to tie the cradle? The hornet readies its nest.
Ettu Varan Koottuporadi KaattuthathammeCome along and join the effort, oh, wild parrot.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaathuvechoru Chakkara Maavilu Then KinijenneOn the long-awaited sweet mango tree, honey has begun to ooze.
Uduthu Kettan Idavapathikku KudukkapopraneTo get dressed for the monsoon rains, the umbrella flowers are blooming.
Pazhakudagale Minnaloruthan Pidichu ThallunneA flash of lightning snatches and throws away the old umbrellas.
Puthiraavininnambili Thilakkam PorunneFor this new night, the moon’s glow is not enough.
Urakkatta Ittinnodivaayo ChaarathumbikaleOh sleepless, beautiful dragonflies, come rushing over.
Kaattu Kunjine Charadu Kettan PuzhayorugunneThe river is preparing for the naming ceremony of the wind’s child.
Manjorukki Malayiragi MuthukilungunneThe mist readies the path, the mountain descends, jingling its pearly anklets.
Kakka Koottam Kalapilakkum KanakkuvakkunneThe flock of crows, with their chatter, is keeping a tally.
Chila Chilannu Chirichu Paadadi Kariyila PenneLaugh and sing with a rustle, oh maiden of the dry leaves.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaattu Vechoru Chakkaramaavilu Then KinijenneOn the sweet mango tree touched by the wind, honey has begun to ooze.
Etha Kombilu Thottilu Kettan Kadanna KoodorukkuOn which branch to tie the cradle? The hornet readies its nest.
Ettu Varan Koottuporadi KaattuthathammeCome along and join the effort, oh, wild parrot.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaathuvechoru Chakkara Maavilu Then KinijenneOn the long-awaited sweet mango tree, honey has begun to ooze.
Kaattu Chembaka Poomarathilu Kaattu PettanneIn the wild Champak flower tree, a wind was born.
Kaathuvechoru Chakkara Maavilu Then KinijenneOn the long-awaited sweet mango tree, honey has begun to ooze.
