Insanile Laavanya Kottaarathin Kallaal Ninne Hijaabil Thunniya Thaare
While preserving the beauty of humanity like the walls of a fortress, you were surrounded by humility.

Hilalinte Maanathe Vaira Kallin Muthal Ente Kinaavu Kilukkiya Haale
In the grace of the crescent moon, from a gem-like stone, my dreams came alive, shining brightly.

Kaniye Kaniye Mullappoovin Chiriyil Aalam Thanne
O girl, like the smile of a thorned flower, you are the very essence of beauty.

Pathiye Pathiye Ozhukipokum Poolalle
Aren’t you like that flower that drifts away with the river?

Maname Maname Lailinazham Pola Naanakkuzhiye
O heart, O heart, in the beauty of Laili’s rhythm, I am drowning in desire.

Kande Kande Kalbil Arabana Muttaaye
I saw it — I saw the Arabian rhythm bloom in my heart like a pearl.

Insaanile Laavanyam Kottaarathin Kallal Ninne Hijabil Thunniya Thare
With the grace of humanity, like the wall of a palace, you were veiled in humility.

Hilalinte Maanathe Vairak Kallin Muthaal Ente Kinaavu Kilukkiya Haale
With the honor of the crescent moon and the sparkle of a diamond, my dreams awakened.

Lailaante Nilavathinale Majnuunayi Maarum Pole
Just as the moonlit Laila drove Majnun mad in love, I too have been transformed.

Jannaathile Baabin Padiyelaaye
As if standing at the gates of heaven.

Alivaarnnoru Vaakku Paranjje Erivulloru Noottam Erinje
You spoke words filled with humility and cast a gaze burning with passion.

Anuraagapperumazhayale Nanannje
I was drenched in the rain of deep affection.

Kaniye Kaniye Mullappoovin Chiriyil Aalam Thanne
O girl, in the thorned smile of the jasmine, you are the very fragrance of grace itself.

Patiye Patiye Ozhukippokum Polalle
Aren’t you like a river that flows gently?

Maname Maname Lailinnazham Pola Naanakkuzhiye
O heart, O heart, like the melody of Laili, I melt in longing.
