Lyrics (with rough translation):

En arike anayum nilave (moon beside me)
Njan thaniye mozhiyum kanave (i am talking about my dreams)
Aathmaavin ithal poovay vidare (my soul blooms like a flower)
Njan uyarum pathiye (i will fly)


Mele vaanil nilaavu pole alayam ini dhoore (let us wander like a moon in the sky)
Mazhayilaake mukilupole aliyam ini eere (let us melt like the cloud in the rain)
Kaananay (to see)
Kadhayariyanay (to explore) etho
Nooru nooru tharangalennilay minnimaayunnu (hundreds of stars shine at me)
Vidaranay (to bloom)
Kannil padaranay (to spread in my eyes) etho
Nooru nooru pookkalamennilay kannirukkunnu (hundreds of blossoms
blink their eyes at me)
Unaranaay (to wake up)
Uyaranaay (to go up)


Kaananay (to see)
Kadhayariyanay (to explore) etho
Nooru nooru theerangal thedi njan vannucherunnu (i reach hundreds of shores)
Vidaranay (to bloom)
Kannil padaranay (to spread in my eyes) etho
Nooru nooru mazhavillu meghangal poothunilkkunnu (hundreds of rainbows appear in the sky)

Mele vaanil nilaavu pole alayam ini dhoore (let us wander like a moon in the sky)
Mazhayilaake mukilupole aliyam ini eere (let us melt like the cloud in the rain)
Mele vaanil nilaavu pole alayam ini dhoore (let us wander like a moon in the sky)
Mazhayilaake mukilupole aliyam ini eere (let us melt like the cloud in the rain)
