Nazrethin Lyrics Translation (from “Priest”)
B K Harinarayanan frames Mary as ‘Nasrethin Naattile Paavane’ (sacred one from Nazareth), grounding theological concepts in earthly imagery. ‘Mannakeyakam Kaakkuvaan Omanappaitthal Vanne’ spotlights the prophesied child’s protective role. ‘Peedaanomparam Thaandunnole’ shifts focus to Mary’s endurance amidst cosmic events.
Nasrethin Naattile PaavaneO, holy one from the land of Nazareth,
MerimaatheMother Mary.
Yeshayyavin Mozhi BhoomiyilThe prophecy of Isaiah, here on earth,
MaarippoovaayHas bloomed into a flower.
Venmaalakha Nin Naamam VaazhthiA holy angel praised your name,
KanyavanashaakhiyilkkaalamorunnippoovaayAnd on the branch of your youth, time prepared a new blossom.
Mannaakeyum KaakkuvaanTo protect the entire world,
Omanappaitthal VanneA beloved child has come.
Maarthe Paarithin Pettammakkanne OhOh, the mother who bore a child for this world,
This Marian hymn’s lyrics translation of Nazrethin positions Mary as both historical Nazareth resident and eternal intercessor. Harinarayanan’s verses connect biblical prophecy with human struggles, mirroring Priest album’s spiritual themes through accessible Malayalam poetry.
