Reflections

It is perhaps one of my favourite Malayalam songs.....indeed....actually...the one who understands Malayalam....will feel that he is blessed....for he can understand the meaning of this wonderful song.......the lyrics penned down by Gireesh Puthenchery are absolutely BLISS!....out of the world!....how does one come up with such splendid writing? I wished every person in this Goddamn world knew malayalam....so that he could feel the beauty of this nectar of a song................

As I listen to the elysian voice of veteran singer. P Jayachandran....something transfers me to a different world.....forget Mohit Chauhan...forget Yuvan...or Rahman.....this song....this voice...this lyrical ballad...recieves much more anticipation and applause than anything or anyone else.....A blissful track...rendered by Chitra and Jayachandran Sir....

Lyrics (Translation)

Ariyaathe ariyaathe ee
Pavizha vaarthinkalariyaathe
Alayaan vaa aliyaan vaa ee
Pranaya thalpathilamaraan vaa Ithoramara gandarva yaamam
Ithoranagha sangeetha sallaapam
My Love, lets elope through the night
under the Coral Crescent that stands unknowingly
Lets elope...Lets melt into each other....
Let's sink in this dune of sand and make love......
In this undying demonic darkest hour of the night...
In this  endless musical apocalypse...lets runaway...
Ala njoriyumashaada theeram
Athilamruthu peyyumee ezhaam yaamam
Ariyaathe ariyaathe ee
Pavizha vaarthinkalariyaathe
Alayaan vaa aliyaan vaa ee
Pranaya thalpathilamaraan vaa The waves rise as they drape around the shore...

As Nectors of Immortality rains from this catastrophe...

My Love, lets elope through the night

under the Coral Crescent that stands unknowingly

Lets elope...Lets melt into each other....

Let's sink in this dune of sand and make love......

Neela shylangal nertha
Manjaale ninne moodunnovo
Raja hamsangal ninte
Paattinte vennayunnunnuvo These Blue mountains shower white flakes of snow...
As these cover your bronze like body...
While you sing this song for me, my love!
These royal swans feed on thy butter like voice....

Pakuthi pookkunna paarijaathangal
Praavu pol nenjilamarunnu These half-bloomed Paarijaath (a white holy flower)
press into my Heart like doves of love... 
Kuruki nilkkunna ninte youvvanam
Rudhra veenayaay paadunnu The strong essence of your youth
sings like the Veena of Shiva!
Nee dheva shilpamaay unarunnu
Ithoramara gandarva yaamam Ithoranagha sangeetha sallaapam
You awoke like a Deity!
In this undying demonic darkest hour of the night...

In this  endless musical apocalypse...lets runaway...

Ala njoriyumashaada theeram
 Athilamruthu peyyumee ezhaam yaamam (ariyathe)The waves rise as they drape around the shore...

As Nectors of Immortality rains from this catastrophe...

Vaarmridhangaadhi vaadhya
Vrindangal vaaniluyarunnuvo
Swarna kasthoori kanaka
Kalabhangal kaatiluthirunnuvo As you feast upon this mridanga (a percussion instrument)
The sky is lit up with an orchestra of instruments
The Golden Deer and the
Golden dust are dispersed in the air

Ariya maanpedamaan pole
Neeyente arikil vannu nilkkumbol
Mazhayilaadunna dhevathaarangal
Manthra melaappu meyumbol Like a beautiful little deer
You come and stand next to me
Like A divine star dancing in the rain
dancing to the chants that I enchant... 
Nee vanavalaakayaay paadunnu
Ithoramara gandarva yaamam
Ithoranagha sangeetha sallaapam You sing as the nature itself
In this undying demonic darkest hour of the night...

In this  endless musical apocalypse...lets runaway...

Ala njoriyumashaada theeram
Athilamruthu peyyumee ezhaam yaamam (ariyathe)The waves rise as they drape around the shore...

As Nectors of Immortality rains from this catastrophe...
