Manikinavin Kothumbuvallam (From "Pokkiriraja")

Manikkinavin kothumbu vallam thuzhanju vannu
Nee enikku vendi
Veyil pirakkal virunnu vannu pakal kinavil
Innenikku vendi
Chiyude kuliralakal athililakiya tharivalakal
Nee azhakinte kuliraruvi athilozhukiya muralika njan
Pranayini harimuraliyil innanuraaga raagamaalyamaayi nee

(Manikkinavin kothumbu vallam)

Ethrayo janmamaayi aa madhura pallavikal
Kelkkuvaan paduvaan kathirunna penkodi njan
Ethra naal ethra naal kathirunnu kanuvaan
Athramel athramel ishtamaanee mukham
Ente raaga sandhyakalil vere enthinu sooryan
Ente prema panchamiyil vereyenthinu thinkal
Ninneyorkkathe innenikkilla pulariyum iravukalum

(Manikkinavin kothumbu vallam)

Aaru nee aaru nee en hridhaya devathe
En manovaadiyil poovaninja charuthe
Vannu njan vannu njan ninnarikil en priyane
Ninnile ninnilekkozhikivarumaathirayaayi
Kattumaina kadha paryum kananangal pookkukayaayi
Orama pootha thazhvarayil onavillu viriyukayaayi
Ninnilaliyumbol aathma raagangal surabhilamozhukivarum

(Manikkinavin kothumbu vallam)

Manikinavin Kothumbuvallam (From "Pokkiriraja")

My decorative boat has come to the shore
For me, my love
It came before dawn, like the sun
In my daytime dream, for me
The coolness of your hair, those unforgettable waves
The beauty of your murmuring, my flute, in those waves
In the melody of your enchanting flute, my raga of love adorns you

(My decorative boat)

For how many lives have I waited
To hear your sweet verses and sing them for you
For how many days and nights have I waited to see
Your beautiful face in my dreams
In my passionate evenings, why would I need the sun
And in my loving nights, why would I need the moon
For me, there is no dawn or dusk without you

(My decorative boat)

You are my heart's beloved
My love has blossomed in my temple of the heart
I have come to you, my beloved
To be with you, my love
Let the stories we tell be as beautiful as the blooming flowers
Let our love be as bright as the rainbow that forms in the sky after the rain
When I remember you, my soul's melodies become fragrant words

(My decorative boat)
