Rumaal Ambili Lyrics Translation (from “Lalbagh”)
Mamta Mohandas and Zia Ul Haq ask if the white sky leans down and the wilderness disappears. Rahul Raj’s music underscores lines about tears that never dry and a heartache that lingers.
Venmanam ChayunnoIs the white sky leaning down?
Kantharam MayunnoIs the wilderness fading away?
Enganen TheerameHow will I ever reach the shore?
Kanneerum ThoratheWith tears that never dry.
Nenchoram MayatheWith a heartache that never fades.
Ninnalum TharameEven if you remain, O star.
Rumaal Ambili Jalalin Kili‘Handkerchief moon’, bird of divine glory.
Ivalkkayi RoohithekidamFor her sake, I would give my soul.
Kedathin MizhiA light that never dims.
Mannizhal Madiyilorunal ThaniyeyidamOne day, we sit alone in the shadow of the earth.
Kantodum Pulari Veyilay Thiraye ManamMy mind searches like morning sunlight racing to see.
Vinneram Penthooval Ini Ee NovumennazhamayIn this sky-time, soft as a feather, this pain becomes my depth.
Kannoram Nin Yaanam Ini Ennalum SancharamayYour journey in my sight becomes an eternal wandering.
Rumaal Ambili Jalalin Kili‘Handkerchief moon’, bird of divine glory.
Ivalkkayi RoohithekidamFor her sake, I would give my soul.
Kedathin MizhiA light that never dims.
Venmanam ChayunnoIs the white sky leaning down?
Kantharam MayunnoIs the wilderness fading away?
Enganen TheerameHow will I ever reach the shore?
Kanneerum ThoratheWith tears that never dry.
Nenchoram MayatheWith a heartache that never fades.
Ninnalum TharameEven if you remain, O star.
Rumaal Ambili Jalalin Kili‘Handkerchief moon’, bird of divine glory.
Ivalkkayi RoohithekidamFor her sake, I would give my soul.
