Njano adhabilaanu sonaI’m caught in a struggle, dear
Ennum sidrathaanu thonaIt always feels like I’m at the ‘spiritual limit’
Vannal barbaraann thaanaIf you show up, it’s bound to be wild,
Thannal kalappilaanu vendaaand if it’s given, it’s a mess I don’t want
Njano adhabilaanu sonaI’m in quite a fix, my dear
Ennum sidrathaanu thonaIt always feels like I’ve reached the ‘heavenly boundary’
Vannal barbaraann thaanaIf you come around, it’s just chaotic,
Thannaal kalappilaanu vendaand if it’s provided, it’s a conflict I don’t need
Aa aaaAh, ah
Olonnu chirikkumbo noorinte chovappuWhen she smiles, there’s a glow of ‘divine light’,
Badakkittu povum billyaakante karaland the big man’s ‘heart’ is gonna get torn apart
Khalbinte ullil theninte ghazalInside my ‘soul’, there’s a honey-sweet song
Ummaante kuttiyinte polivuThe radiance of a mother’s child
Untheettu nokkada aisoonte powerGive it a push and witness ‘Aisu’s’ power
Chaayippi thekkin chandana kamarA southern moon made of ‘sandalwood’ tilting,
Vainneram poyile thyakkaante naravudidn’t the evening fade, like an old man’s graying hair?
