Andhala Rakshasi’s Manasa Marchipo Telugu Lyrics English Translation
Lakshmi Bhupala structures the ultimatum: ‘Forget or die.’ Sathyaprakash questions existence, comparing life to flowers with thorns and eyes with tears. Bhargavi Sridhar describes a journey without direction, where love feels like a lost sun.
Vedana Shodhana Oopiraage BhavanaAnguish and trial, a feeling where my breath stands still.
Dveshama Pranama Cheruvaithe NeramaIs it hatred? Is it life? Is it a crime if you come near?
Mulle Undani PuvvulundavaDo flowers cease to exist just because thorns are there?
Kanneeru Undani Kallu LevaDo eyes stop existing just because they hold tears?
Alalu Undani SandramundadaDoes the ocean vanish just because the waves rise?
Ye Kalalu Undani Janma LedhaDoes life end just because some dreams remain?
Manasa Marchipo Ledante ChachipoOh heart, forget it all, or else simply cease to beat.
Gathama Kaalipo Marujanmaki Aasha ThoOh past, burn away now, with hope for a life reborn.
Gamyame Ledani Telisina PayanamaIs this a journey where I know there is no destination?
Cheekate Lokama Chukkallo Soorida PremaIs my world just darkness? Is love a sun lost among the stars?
Bhoomi Paathalam LothunaBuried deep within the earth’s abyss.
Pichi Vaadnai Swargaanni VethakanaLike a madman, am I searching for a heaven?
Unna Aakasham AnchunaOn the very edge of the sky that remains.
Nuvvu Leni Naa Kosam BrathakanaShall I try to live for myself, in a world without you?
Pranale Pothunna NindinchalekunnaEven as my life slips away, I cannot place the blame.
Nalone Naathone Nenu UndalekunnaI can no longer bear to exist within my own self.
Gathame Theeyaga Baadhinche Haayi Lo LoThe past torments me sweetly, with a comforting sort of pain.
Parada Theeyaga Kanipinche NijamilaLike a harsh truth revealed when the curtain is pulled aside.
Etu Choodanu Iru VaipulaWhere am I supposed to look, trapped on both sides?
Pranayale PralayamaiWhen love transforms into a catastrophic storm.
Ventaadithe Em Cheyanu Nene LenugaIf it hunts me down, what can I do when I am already gone?
Ye Theeram Cherali Chukkane LekundaWhich shore can I reach without a rudder to guide me?
Naadantu Naakantu Undokate NarakamThe only thing that is truly mine is this solitary hell.
Manasa Marchipo Ledante ChachipoOh heart, forget it all, or else simply cease to beat.
Gathama Kaali Po Marujanmaki Aasha ThoOh past, burn away now, with hope for a life reborn.
Radhan’s Telugu track offers no compromise between memory and oblivion. The ‘Andhala Rakshasi’ lyrics translation identifies self-erasure as the sole escape from relentless despair.
