Mounathin Poo Kavilil - Padma

Singer – Rajkumar Radhakrishnan

Lyrics – Anoop Menon

Composition – Ninoy Varghese

Prelude – I was awestruck on hearing the silvery voice of Rajkumar Radhakrishnan . The lyrics by Anoop Menon have an intoxicating effect on us . The newcomer Ninoy Varghese has composed soulfully, putting all his heart out to give an endearing melody . Padma is a soundtrack to look out for . 

Mounathin poo kavilil nanathinte mullamalar kodiyo

Is shyness in your flowery cheeks like the jasmine plant amidst the silence ? 

Vathilkkal vannu olikkum poo velin thanka chilamb oliyo 

Is the tinkling of sunlight's golden anklet hidden behind the door ? 

Vinnil payum minnal nalam nin anuragam peyum neram

There is a flash of lightening that races the sky when your love pours like rain.

Arorum ariyathe kalangal ariyathe nenjil novvai ennum

Your love, unknown to all others and time, always aches in my heart .  

Kathoram ethunna pattil nee thedunna gandharvanadam

You are searching for the sound of the celestial singer in the song that reaches your ears.

Meyoram aliyunna manjil nee ariyunna kalhara gandham

You can sense the fragrance of the water lily when the snow melts upon your body

Vinnil thusharam pozhiyunna neram sindoora renuvil

Onnai aliyum vimukham

As the snow sheds from the sky , the vermilion powder on your forehead spreads as we unite , tightly embracing in the silence .

Postlude – This dreamy song is enough to let  us know what the amalgamation of good vocals , words ,  and melody can do to a person’s soul . The song comes at a juncture when Padma played, by Surabi Lakshmi , is drawn to the singer Haridas,played by Rajkumar Radhakrishnan .
