Nilavai parthu vaanam chonnathu
By
Kannadsan
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
1. Nilavai parthu vaanam chonnathu,
Yennai thodathe  ,
Nizhalai parthu  bhoomi chonnathu  ,
Yennai thodathe.
1, The sky told the  moon,
Do not touch me  ,
The earth sawing the shadow told,
Do not touch ne.
2,Nadhiyai parthu  nanal chonnathu ,
Yennai thodathe,
Nalai parthu  iravu chonnathu ,
Yennai thodathe.
2, The twig of  grass  seeing the  river told,
Do not touch me  ,
The night saw the day and told,
Do not touch me.
3.Pudhiyadallave   theendamai yenpathu  ,
Pudumyallave nee chonnathu  ,
CHonna varthayum   iraval thanathu ,
THiru Neela kandarin manaivi chonnathu.
3,Untochability   is not any thing new ,
And  it is not new that  you told it,
The word that was told was a borrowed one,
It was told  by the wife of Thiruneelakandar,
4.THalathai ragam   thodatha pothole  ,
Geethathai  nenjam thodamal pogume,
THanthai thannaye   thai thodavidil ,
Nanum illaye , neeyum illaye .
4.If the THala(beat)   does not tough the tune,
The sond would   not tough the mind  ,
If father is not touched by the mother,
Neither you are there nor I am there.
5.THangam yedutha kai , athu thangam parthathaa,
Dharmam katha kai  , sama dharmam  kandathaa  ,
AAlayam cheivom  , ange anumathi yillai ,
Nee antha kootame  , athil athisayamillai.
5.Did the   hand that mined Gold  , ever  saw gold  ,
Did the hand that protected Dharma , Protect socialism,
We would build temple, there is no permission to enter there,
You also belong to that crowd, there is no  wonder  in it.
Film SAvale SAmali (1971)
