Shehnai Moolunnundi AanandaraavuThe Shehnai hums a tune, and the night is filled with joy.
Kanavaay Thonnunnundi SalkkaramThis grand reception feels just like a dream to me.
Aniyaan Ponnum Konde Porum PallakkuThe palanquin arrives, carrying the gold ornaments I’m to wear.
Koode Avanum Vannethunne ChaarathuAnd along with it, he’s arriving right by my side.
Pathivaay Pathiye Pothiyum ManjaayLike the mist that softly wraps around you.
Eniyenninayaay NeeyeYou’ve become my partner for all time to come.
Karalil Kuthirum Pirishathin PaattilIn this song of love that drenches my heart.
Othiri Punchiri Poothiri KathanithaaCountless smiles light up like sparklers all around.
Mazhavillolam Uyarum PanthalThe wedding canopy rises high, touching the rainbow.
Athileeneram AagoshikkaamaadippadaamLet’s celebrate this moment, dancing and singing together.
Gasalinneenam Ishalin ThaalamWith the melody of Ghazals and the rhythm of ‘Ishals’.
Kasaraan Koode Pettippaattum Daffin MuttumTo dazzle us, there’s the ‘Pettippaattu’ and the beat of the ‘Daff’.
Mehandikayyaem Kayyil Murukecherum MelleMy henna-adorned hand gently holds yours tighter.
Kulirum Kaaryangal ChollaanundeI have so many sweet, thrilling things to tell you.
Ninakkaay Khlbil PookkumFor you, deep inside my heart…
Poomullakombil Kettum…on a blooming jasmine branch…
Kooteran Naanikkanenthaanu…why are you so shy to come and build our nest?
Kasavin Thattam NeekkiPushing aside my gold-bordered veil.
Kavilil NullunnoneYou’re the one who gently pinches my cheek.
Madiyil Maankunjaay Veezhum NeramWhen I fall into your lap like a little fawn.
Mizhiyil Mutham NalkaamI’ll place a soft kiss upon your eyes.
Ponthooval Konde NinneWith a golden feather, I’ll cover you…
Mooteedaamaaraarum Kaanathe…hiding you away so no one else can see.
Parayaamohangal ThirayaayUnspoken desires rise up like waves.
Athilaayaavolam NanayaamLet’s immerse ourselves in them completely.
Mylaanchippennaayoru ManavaattipennaayAs a henna-adorned girl, and now as a bride…
