Mulumathy Avalathu - Jodha Akbar

Muzhumadhi avalathu mugamaagum
The full moon is her face

Malligai avalathu manamaagum
Jasmine is her scent

Minnalgal avalathu vizhiyaagum
Lightings are her eyes

Mounangal avalathu mozhiyaagum

Silence is her language

Maargazhi maadhaththu, Paniththuli avalathu kuralaagum
The snowdrop from the month of December, is her voice

Magarandha kaattin, Maan kutti avaladhu nadaiyaagum

The baby deer from the forest is her walk

Avalai oru naal naan paarthen,
I saw her one day...

Idhayam kodu ena varam ketten

I asked her to grant her heart to me...

Athai koduththaal, Udanae eduththae sendru vittaal

She gave it and suddenly took it and went away...

The full moon is her face

Malligai avalathu manamaagum
Jasmine is her scent

Maargazhi maadhaththu, Paniththuli avalathu kuralaagum
The snowdrop from the month of December, is her voice

Magarandha kaattin, Maan kutti avaladhu nadaiyaagum

The baby deer from the forest is her walk

​

Kaalthadamae padhiyaadha, Kadal theevu aval thaanae

She is an island where no foot has been placed...
Athan vaasanai mananil, Poochchediyaaga ninaithen

I thought of the scent as a flowering plant on the sand

Kettathumae marakkaatha, Mellisaiyum avalthaanae

The melody of a music that cannot be forgotten after hearing is her...
Athan pallavi charanam, Purinthum mounaththil irunthen

I understood all the music from it and stood in silence

Oru karaiyaaga aval irukka
As she was one shore..

Maru karaiyaaga naan irukka
and I was the other shore..

Idaiyil thanimai Thalumbuthae… nadhiyaai

In the middle loneliness emerged like the river

Kaanal neeril meen pidikka, Kaigal nianaiththaal mudinthidumaa
If hands want to catch a fish in the mirage..is it possible?

Nigazhkaalam naduvae, Vedikkai paarkkirathae..

The present is watching this leisurely

Muzhumadhi avalathu mugamaagum
The full moon is her face

Malligai avalathu manamaagum
Jasmine is her scent

Maargazhi maadhaththu, Paniththuli avalathu kuralaagum
The snowdrop from the month of December, is her voice

Magarandha kaattin, Maan kutti avaladhu nadaiyaagum

The baby deer from the forest is her walk

​

Amaithiyudan aval vandhaal, Viralgalai naan pidiththu konden

She came silently, I held her fingers,
Pala vaanavil paarthae, Vazhiyil thodarnthathu payanam

We saw many rainbows through the journey

Urakkam vanthae thalaikkodha, Maraththadiyil ilaippaari
As I dozed off near a tree,

Kan thiranthen avalum illai,

When I opened my eye, she wasn't there....

Kasanthathu nimidam

That moment was bitter

Arugil irunthaal oru nimidam
She seemed close one minute

Tholaivil therinthaal maru nimidam
and seemed far the next minute

Kangalil maraiyum, Poimaan pol odugiraal

She is running away like an illusion

Avalukkum enakkum naduvinilae
In between me and her...

Thirai ondru therinthathu edhirinilae
a curtain appeared in my sight...

Mugamoodi aninthaal, Mugangal therinthidumaa..

Can we see faces when wearing a mask...

​

Muzhumadhi avalathu mugamaagum
The full moon is her face

Malligai avalathu manamaagum
Jasmine is her scent

Maargazhi maadhaththu, Paniththuli avalathu kuralaagum
The snowdrop from the month of December, is her voice

Magarandha kaattin, Maan kutti avaladhu nadaiyaagum

The baby deer from the forest is her walk
