Vellam’s Oru Kuri Composers Version Malayalam Lyrics English Translation
Harinarayanan’s words describe a heart left behind in a lover’s eyes during farewell. Bijibal emphasizes the locked eyelids metaphor, translating hope into permanent exclusion. The doorstep image underscores abandonment without melodrama.
Oru Kuri Kandu Naam Piriyunna Neram NinWhen we met that one time and then parted ways,
Mizhikalilen Manam Marannu VechuI unknowingly left my heart inside your eyes.
Thirike Vannetukkuvan Nokkiyappol Neeyo Imayude Vathilum Pootti VechuWhen I came back to retrieve it, you had locked the doors of your eyelids.
Ninte Padiyarikil Njano KaathuninnuAnd so, I stood waiting at your doorstep.
Irulonnu Veluthille Imachimmi ThurannilleHasn’t the darkness faded? Haven’t your eyes fluttered open?
Iniyenthe Thamasam Palunku PenneWhy is there still a delay, my crystal girl?
Manassinte Kinnam Nee Thirichu ThannillenkilIf you won’t return the vessel that holds my soul,
Marannavayokke NjanorthedukkumI’ll be forced to recall everything I had tried to forget.
Nin Mukhamallathe MattullathellamennilEverything within me, except for your face,
Vellathil Varacha Varapol Maanju PoyiHas faded away like a line drawn in water.
Palavattam Thiranjille Imavetti KudanjilleDidn’t I search so many times? Didn’t you blink and flutter your lashes?
Evidennude Manasam Parayu PenneTell me where my heart is, girl.
Mizhikkuyalolathil Mashikkatta PolayoIs it like a clump of mascara lost in the ripples of your eye?
Thirichingu Kittathe VeenalinjoDid it fall and dissolve without ever coming back to me?
Enthini Cheyyano Niyenna ChinthakkullilWondering what to do, trapped inside thoughts of you,
Jeevitham Muzhuvanum NjanirikkamI will spend my entire life waiting right here.
Oru Kuri Kandu Naam Piriyunna Neram NinWhen we met that one time and then parted ways,
Mizhikalilen Manam Marannu VechuI unknowingly left my heart inside your eyes.
Thirike Vannetukkuvan Nokkiyappol Neeyo Imayude Vathilum Pootti VechuWhen I came back to retrieve it, you had locked the doors of your eyelids.
Ninte Padiyarikil Njano KaathuninnuAnd so, I stood waiting at your doorstep.
