Enthinu Vere Oru Sooryodayam – Mazha Ethum Munpe
Composition – Raveendran
Lyrics – Kaithapram
Singer – KJ Yesudas , KS Chitra
Prelude – The song “ Enthinu Vere Oru Sooryodayam “ is
known for its poignancy among the cinegoers of Kerala . The song caught my
attention when my father mentioned it to me the other day . The film is a
classic in itself which was released when I was in 2nd standard in
1995 . At that young age, I couldn't comprehend the utopian love between the characters Nandakumar Varma and Uma Maheshwari , portrayed by Mammootty and Shobana, respectively .
Enthinu vere oru sooryodayam
Why do I need another sunrise ?
Enthinu vere oru sooryodayam , nee en pon usha sandhya
elle
Why do I need another sunrise when you are my own sweet daybreak ?
Enthinu vere oru madhu vasantham
Why do I need a sweet spring ?
Enthinu vere oru madhu vasantham , innu nee en arikil
ille
Why do I need a sweet spring when you are by my side ?
Malarvaniyil
In the garden filled with flowers.
Enthinu vere oru madhu vasatham
Ninte nupura marmaram onnu kelkanayi vannu njan
I came just to hear the tinkling of your anklet.
Ninte santhvana venuvil ragalolamay jeevitham
My life flows with the meandering melody of your
benevolent flute.
Nee ente ananda neelambari , nee enuum anayath
deepanjali
You are my joyous lullaby ( Neelambari raag is used to make lullabies ) , you are my immortal
reverence of light.
Eniyum chilamb aniyu
Wear your anklets again !
Shyama gopike ee mizhi pookkal ennu enthe erenay
Oh beloved ! Why did your eyes,like flowers, tear up today ?
Tavakanguli lalanangalil ardramay manasam
My mind melts in the cosseting by your fingers.
Poo kondu mudunnu vrindavanam , sindhuram aniyunnu
ragambaram
The Vrindavan ( It means sacred grove of basil plants . It is considered one of the most sacred places for devotees of Krishna , as it is where he spent his childhood . It is believed to be the location where Krishna enacted his dance of divine love with Radha and other cowherd maidens ) is filled with
flowers . The melodic sky is adorned with vermillion.
Padu swara yamunae
Oh Yamuna river , Sing songs with the melodic notes of
your waves .
Postlude - The
lyricist Kaithapram has tried to incorporate the story of incapacitated Uma Maheshwari, who is a dancer by profession, in her path of recuperation . The joint journey
of Uma Maheshwari and Nandakumar Varma in this moment of crisis only strengthens
their bond . The way in which Nandakumar Varma supports Uma Maheshwari mentally
in getting reinvigorated is a lesson to be learnt by all human beings who
believe in the language of love . Nandakumar wishes to see Uma Maheshwari walk
once again and dance like before . The second stanza of the song has brought the
divine love of Lord Krishna and Goddess Radha, which stands testimony to the
heartbeat of the universe . This song is an ode to all those people who believe
in eternal love.
