Kalippu’s Manushya Nee Malayalam Lyrics English Meaning
Jessen Joseph writes about the transient nature of human existence. The lines, ‘Or are they merely tear-stained sketches fading away?’ highlight how memories and desires vanish over time. The poet uses vivid imagery like ‘stone statue’ to symbolize the lasting impact one leaves behind.
Manushya Nee Pokayaano Paralokam PookayanoOh human, are you leaving; are you entering the world beyond?
Ihaloka Mohangal Ee Loka MithrangalAre your worldly desires and friends of this earth,
Ini Padarunna Kaanaa Chithrangal AanoNow just unseen pictures spreading into the void?
Nanavaarnna Rekhaa ChithrangalanoOr are they merely tear-stained sketches fading away?
Janmam Nalkiya Vidhi Kala MaathrakalThe fleeting moments that fate bestowed upon this life,
Ini Aaro Meettum KalroopamaayHave now turned into a stone statue for someone else to find.
Aaradimanniladangum NimishathinAt the moment of resting within six feet of soil,
Janmakarmam Nivarthi Vacha KaazhchakkaaranoIs he a spectator who has fulfilled his life’s duties?
Ivan Puthrante Yaathrakkoru KaazhchakkaranoIs he just a witness to his son’s journey now?
Innu Njaan Naale Nee Enna GrahanavumThe eclipse that teaches, ‘Today it’s me, tomorrow it’s you.’
Neele Neele Urulenda VazhiyilOn this path that rolls on endlessly,
Orkka Nee Orkka Nee Orkka NeeRemember, oh remember, you must remember.
Gareebin Paramangal Srishticha ManujaaOh human, who created the ultimate plight of the helpless soul.
