Ezhilam Paala Poothu




Presenting a popular Malayalam duet ... this happens to be my first Malayalam song in the blog..I want to express my sincere thanks to Thinkal ji for giving me the opportunity to sing this, for mixing it so wonderfully and for all his guidance with lyrics and expressions in the song.

I hope you all will enjoy this. Happy Onam to all of you!!
Thank you all very much in advance.

English Translation:

In full blossom are the seven-leaved Paala trees!
Up are the umbrellas of the flowering woods!
On the silver-peaked hills, on the Veli hills!

Calls out in cheer the arriving flock of yodelling cuckoos!
On the silver-peaked hills, on the Veli hills!

||Interlude||

In the flowery garden of my golden dreams
Fully bloomed are the Paarijaata florets


Adorns the row of my mind’s hillocks!
Blooming Ashoka’s golden flowers!


From the sky like a lotus
You fell on my lap Oh my soul-mate!
Oh my companion of life!


||Interlude||

 

To unite with you perpetually
Took to penance my longing heart!


On lonely nights of melancholy
In your thoughts I wept and wept!


To see you when I yearned
Came in front of me like a beautiful poem
Oh my soul-mate! Oh my companion of life!
