Maanikkyathe Oru Maanikkyathe
A ruby, a precious ruby.

Verum Kallennu Ninachu Nee Kalayalle
Don’t throw it away thinking it’s just a stone.

Athu Maanikkyam Thanneyennu Ariyumbo
When you realize that it was actually a ruby.

Manasinte Aazhatthilo Annu Muriyille
Won’t your heart ache to the very core that day?

Thaarakathe Oru Thaarakathe
A star, a shining star.

Innu Kandilla Ennu Nee Nadikkalle
Don’t pretend today that you never saw it.

Aa Thaarakam Maanath Marayumpol
When that star disappears from the sky.

Iruttil Vazhiyarriyathe Nee Thudikkille
Won’t you struggle in the darkness without knowing the way?

Maanikkyathe Oru Maanikkyathe
A ruby, a precious ruby.

Thaarakathe Oru Thaarakathe
A star, a shining star.

A bee takes honey from a flower,

Kaathalille Nadakku, Athu Aar Vannu Thaduppu
When love walks forward, who can come and block its path?
