Venuvai Vachanu Lyrics Translation – Matrudevobhava Soundtrack
Veturi’s lines compare physical existence to a flute’s temporary music and the soul to eternal wind. Chitra’s vocals reinforce the idea that parental and teacher bonds outlast seven lifetimes.
Venuvai Vachanu BhuvananikiI came to this world as a flute.
Gaalinai Pothanu GagananikiI’ll leave for the heavens as the wind.
Venuvai Vachanu BhuvananikiI came to this world as a flute.
Gaalinai Pothanu GagananikiI’ll leave for the heavens as the wind.
Mamathalanni Mouna GaanamAll these affections are but a silent melody.
Vanchalanni VayuleenamEvery desire has merged into the ‘eternal breeze’.
Venuvai Vachanu BhuvananikiI came to this world as a flute.
Gaalinai Pothanu GagananikiI’ll leave for the heavens as the wind.
Matrudevobhava MatrudevobhavaRevere the mother as a ‘divine being’, revere the mother as a ‘divine being’.
Pitrudevobhava PitrudevobhavaRevere the father as a ‘divine being’, revere the father as a ‘divine being’.
Aacharyadevobhava AacharyadevobhavaRevere the teacher as a ‘divine being’, revere the teacher as a ‘divine being’.
Edu Kondalakaina Banda TaanokkateFor all the ‘seven hills’, the underlying rock is just one.
Edu Janmala Theepi Ee BandhameThis bond’s the sweetness of seven lifetimes.
Edu Kondalakaina Banda TaanokkateFor all the ‘seven hills’, the underlying rock is just one.
Edu Janmala Theepi Ee BandhameThis bond’s the sweetness of seven lifetimes.
Nee Kantilo Nalatha Lo Veluguni KaanakaSince I didn’t see the light within the speck in your eye,
Nenu Menanukunte Yadaa CheekateI thought I was just this body, and my heart stayed in the dark.
Hari Hari Hari HariOh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord.
Raayinai Unnanu Ee NaatikiI’ve remained as a stone until this very day.
Raama Paadamu Raaka E NaatikiWaiting for the touch of Lord Rama’s feet.
Venuvai Vachanu BhuvananikiI came to this world as a flute.
Gaalinai Pothanu GagananikiI’ll leave for the heavens as the wind.
Venuvai Vachanu BhuvananikiI came to this world as a flute.
Gaalinai Pothanu GagananikiI’ll leave for the heavens as the wind.
