Chaver’s Poomale Pothiyamme Lyrics Translation

The lyrics later question the fairness of something so carefully nurtured being torn away from its stem. Another line speaks of the death-bringer, “Kaalan Kuliyan,” whose arrival no one can foresee. This adds a sense of powerlessness against fate.

Poomale Pothiye Poopole MaloruMy treasured flower, another one like a blossom,
Vadunne Veevunnu Novunnamme NovunnammeIs wilting and falling, it hurts, mother, it hurts.
Kannunnu Mayumbam Mannunnu PovumbamAs her eyes begin to close, as she goes into the earth,
Kannethra Vevunnu Kaavilamme KaavilammeHow my own eyes burn with sorrow, oh goddess of the grove, oh goddess.
Potti Molachathum Nattu NanachathumThe one who sprouted from a seed, the one I planted and nurtured,
Njettattu Povandu Nyayamille NyayamilleTo be torn from the stem like this, is there no justice? Is there none?
Poomale Pothiye Poopole MaloruMy treasured flower, another one like a blossom,
Vadunne Veevunnu Novunnamme NovunnammeIs wilting and falling, it hurts, mother, it hurts.
Kaalan Kuliyante Kaalavum KaaryavumThe hour and the ways of the death-bringer, ‘Kaalan Kuliyan’,
Aarikum Chollaano Aavathille AavathilleNo one can ever predict them, it’s impossible, it’s impossible.
Mukkannan Daivame Mukkodi DevereOh, three-eyed god, oh, you countless deities,
Munnottu Povaano Koode Vene Koode VeneTo keep moving forward, I need you with me, I need you with me.
Tharaatti Paalootti Potiya PonnunniMy precious golden child, whom I rocked with lullabies and fed with milk,
Poovudal Polinnu Veenu Ponnu Veenu PonnuHer body, like a flower, has now fallen, it has fallen.
Petta Vayarinte Novundo TheernnuDoes the ache of the womb that gave birth ever fade?
Ponnammme Poomale Pothiyammme PothiyammmeOh, golden mother, my flower goddess, my treasured mother, my treasured mother.

The song directly asks the goddess if the pain of the womb that gave birth ever fades. This turns the music into a ritual-like chant directed at local deities. The meaning of the “Poomale Pothiyamme” lyrics is a mother’s raw questioning of divine justice after a profound loss.
