Ponnoonjal Aaduthu Lyrics Translation Sirpy | Vaali | Amman Kovil Vaasalile
Vaali frames the moon as both witness and obstacle to romance. The golden swing imagery contrasts with direct requests like ‘Oru Pothum Piriyatha Varam’ – a plea against separation. K. S. Chithra’s delivery emphasizes anticipation of marital union.
Ponnoonjal Aaduthu Pal NilaA golden swing sways in the milky moonlight.
Paniyil Nanaiyum PennilaA moon-like maiden is drenched in the morning dew.
Sangeetham Paduthu Then NilaThe honey-sweet moon sings a soft melody.
Tharaiyil Thavazhum VennilaA bright, white moon crawls across the ground.
Mandram Varum Intha Manjal NilaThis golden moon will arrive at the royal court.
Mannan Madi Dhinam Konjum NilaIt’s a moon that the king cherishes on his lap each day.
Intha Kannana Kadhalan Kalyana NayaganThis handsome lover, this husband-to-be,
Munnalum Pinnalum Muththadum Malai Nilais a garland of moonlight, showering kisses from every side.
Ponnoonjal Aaduthu Pal NilaA golden swing sways in the milky moonlight.
Paniyil Nanaiyum PennilaA moon-like maiden is drenched in the morning dew.

Tharaiyil Thavazhum VennilaA bright, white moon crawls across the ground.
Azhagana Thegam Muzhuthaga ParkkaTo gaze upon your beautiful form completely,
Thadai Podum Thanga Nilathis golden moon keeps getting in the way.
