Kayampoo kannil vidarum ( Cover)

An old malayalam hit song from the movie "Nadhi" . My attempt ...
Lyrics: Vayalar
Music director : G.Devarajan
Year : 1969
Singer: Yesudas
Cover : N.Gopinath



Kaayaamboo kannil vidarum
kamaladhalam kavilil vidarum
anuraagavathee nin chodikalilninnaalippazham pozhiyum (kaayamboo)

Ponnaranjaanam bhoomikku chaarthum
puzhayude ekaantha pulinathil
nin mrudhusmerathin indrajaalam kandu
nithya vismayavumaay njanirangee
nithya vismayavumaay njanirangee
sakhee njanirangee (kaayaamboo)

Ninne kurichu njaan paadiya paattinu
niravadhi olangal sruthiyittu
nin manoraajyathe neelakadambil nee
enteyee kalithonee kettiyittu
enteyee kalithonee kettiyittu
sakhee kettiyittu (kaayaamboo)

    1. Thank you, Dr Nagaraj, for asking. It's frustrating not to understand fully a beautiful song! Thanks to Madhu, who has replied with the meanings of the lyrics provided by Mr Gopinath.

  7. An attempt in translation with trepidation (by a non-scholar)...

    Kaayaampoo (flower of kaasaav) blooms in your eyes, lotus petals on your cheeks | Oh my lady love, soft hail fall from your lovely lips | On the lonesome banks of river that puts on golden belly beads on the Earth | I stepped in to you with unending wonderment, seeing the magic of your soft smile | I stepped in to you… | The endless waves in you tuned the songs that I sang about you | On the blueish kadamba of your thoughts, you tied up my play boat, o dear, you tied up my play boat.

    3. @Madhu I needed to know the meanings of specific words, like 'chodigalil' and 'kadambil'. Thank you for giving me the meaning of the former - lips - and so many other words! 👍🏽⭐
