Kondotti Pooram’s Mazhavillin Lyrics Translation
A child finds peace in a lullaby sung from a wounded heart. Later, the lyrics ask to become one with the wave on the mother’s chest. This desire for closeness appears again in the wish to hear her whispered prayers.
MazhavillinazhakaanuYou are the beauty of the rainbow
MadhurakkaniyaanennummaMy mother, you are a sweet fruit
Umma EnnummaMother, my own mother
Karal Nonthu Paadunna ThaarattilIn the lullaby you sing from a wounded heart
Ozhukaam NjanLet me drift away
Umma Umma EnnummaMother, mother, my own mother
Ee Madithattil NjanRight here in your lap
