Ponnambili Kaathunilkkum (From ''Golanthara Vartha'')

Ponnambili kaathu nilkkum,
Kunnin cherivil
Kaathil kulir peythathaaro kaanaa kuyilo
Paadunnen kinaavin kili paithal
Priya maanasaa varille nee

Ponnambili kaathu nilkkum,
Kunnin cherivil
Kaathil kulir peythathaaro kaanaa kuyilo

Kaathorthu ninnival kali cholli vannilee nee
Kai neetti vannival nizhalaayi maanjoo nee

Kaathorthu ninnival kali cholli vannilee nee
Kai neetti vannival nizhalaayi maanjoo nee

Yaamini than maanasamaam raakkiliyo paadee
Kaathirikkum oru gopee hrudayamaay
Kulur mullakal poothu nilaavaay
Malar sayyayorungukayaayi

Ponnambili kaathu nilkkum,
Kunnin cherivil
Kaathil kulir peythathaaro kaanaa kuyilo

Paadunnen praananil pranayaardranaay neeyinnum
Vannaalum njaanoru vana venuvaay nilppoo
Paadunnen praananil pranayaardranaay neeyinnum
Vannaalum njaanoru vana venuvaay nilppoo

Neeyunaraan vaikumoru naalu mani poovo
Kaattu poovin manamariyaa madhupano
Kuliraathira raavinu moham
Ilam chudilalinju mayangaan

Ponnambili kaathu nilkkum,
Kunnin cherivil
Kaathil kulir peythathaaro kaanaa kuyilo
Paadunnen kinaavin kili paithal
Priya maanasaa varille nee...

Ponnambili Kaathunilkkum (From ''Golanthara Vartha'')

My golden-eyed love awaits,
By the pond on the hill
The wind whispers cool, my darling cuckoo of the grove,
I've dreamt of your song, my beloved nightingale
When will you come, my dearest?

My golden-eyed love awaits,
By the pond on the hill
The wind whispers cool, my darling cuckoo of the grove,

I've come here, enticed by your promise,
And I've stretched out my arms to shield you from the sun.

I've come here, enticed by your promise,
And I've stretched out my arms to shield you from the sun.

My heart has found solace in your songs, my beloved,
I wait here like a devoted cowgirl,
Under the moonlight's embrace, amidst blossomed jasmine,
On a bed of fragrant flowers.

My golden-eyed love awaits,
By the pond on the hill
The wind whispers cool, my darling cuckoo of the grove,

My beloved, I sing to you, my heart filled with love's longing.
And even if you delay, I'll remain here, a humble flute in the forest.
My beloved, I sing to you, my heart filled with love's longing.
And even if you delay, I'll remain here, a humble flute in the forest.

Your love, my beloved, is a fragrant flower,
Like a wildflower in the breeze, my darling bee.
Your love soothes the night's fever,
Like a gentle breeze on my burning skin.

My golden-eyed love awaits,
By the pond on the hill
The wind whispers cool, my darling cuckoo of the grove,
I've dreamt of your song, my beloved nightingale
When will you come, my dearest?
