Sithara brings a dreamy charm to ‘Manju Thulliyo,’ a song from the album ‘Lolans.’ Santhosh Kodanad writes poetic lyrics that mix nature with romance, while Anwar Aman composes a melody that feels like a gentle breeze. Together, they create a track that’s both soothing and enchanting.
Santhosh Kodanad describes love through vivid comparisons, asking, ‘Are you a dewdrop or a piece of white marble?’ The poet uses imagery like peacocks and moonlight to highlight the beauty and grace of the beloved. The lyrics also play with the rhythm of a racing heart, adding a layer of sweet confusion.
Manjuthulliyo VennakkalloAre you a dewdrop or a piece of white marble?
Meyyil Azhakilaay NinneYou’ve got beauty draped all over you.
Kaattupole Njaan ChuttumbozhoWhile I’m swirling around like the breeze,
Paayum MayilaayYou’re a peacock darting away.
Parayu Nee PenkodeeTell me, my lovely lady,
Rasame Nee Thaan ChundareeYou’re the one who’s truly charming.
Lavu Lavu Midikkumbol Ente NenjilWhen my heart beats fast with love, ‘lub-dub’,
Koluthitta Kanavoru SukhamalleIsn’t the dream you’ve sparked such a pleasure?
Thudikkathu En ManasMy heart’s pounding away,
Puriyalai Athin KanakkuBut I don’t understand its rhythm.
Manjuthulliyo VennakkalloIs it a dewdrop or white marble I see?
Meyyil Azhakilaay NinneThere’s such elegance in your form.
Kaattupole Njaan ChuttumbozhoWhen I circle you like the wind,
Paayum MayilaayYou’re a peacock in full flight.
Oru Chellakkutti NeeYou’re my precious little one,
En Vennilaavu NeeYou’re my bright moonlight.
Thenundu PoyidumEverything’s going to be dipped in honey,
MoharaagamellamAll these passionate melodies of mine.
Chuttivarum Ulakellam Nee Mozhiyum KuliraakumThe whole world turns cool with every word you speak,
Poomizhikal Naanathaal Premamazha VeenjaakkumYour flowery eyes pour down a rain of love from shyness.
Lavu Lavu Midikkumbol Ente NenjilAs my heart thumps ‘lub-dub’ with love,
Koluthitta Kanavoru SukhamalleIsn’t this dream you lit such a joy?
Thudikkathu En ManasMy heart’s beating fast now,
Puriyalai Athin KanakkuAnd I can’t quite grasp the count.
Manjuthulliyo VennakkalloCould you be a dewdrop or a sculpted stone?
Meyyil Azhakilaay NinneYour grace is truly something else.
Kaattupole Njaan ChuttumbozhoAs I drift around you like the air,
Paayum MayilaayYou’re like a peacock on the run.
Oru Sinkakkutti NeeYou’re a little lioness,
Nin Vennakkatti NjaanAnd I’m your block of white marble.
Doorangal Poyidaam KoottinethumengilWe’ll travel far if you’ll just join me.
Poomarangal Kondennil Neeyezhuthum SwapnangalThe dreams you write on me using flowering trees,
Nenjinullil AiyumbolWhen they’re etched deep inside my chest,
What does ‘Manju Thulliyo’ mean? The lyrics offer a heartfelt tribute to love’s elegance. Sithara’s voice, paired with Anwar Aman’s melody, makes this Malayalam track a timeless piece of musical art.
