Laali Laali - Indira (1995)

Lyrics: Veturi
Singer: Harini
Music: A. R. Rahman


Laali laali anu raagam saagutunte yevaru nidurapore

Chinnapoda mari chinni praanam

Kaase vennelaku veeche gaalulaku hrudayam kuduta padade

Anta cheda mari venu gaanam

 

When this lullaby tune is being played, why is no one sleeping?

Won’t this little soul feel bad?

Even with the moonlight and the breeze, why is the heart still restless?

Is the music of the flute so bitter?

 

Kallu melukunte kalam aagutunda bhaaramaina manasa

Pagati baadalanni marichipovutaku

Undi kaada ee ekanta vela

 

Will time stop if eyes stay awake, oh heavy heart?

To forget all the troubles of the day,

this lonely time exists

 

(swaram)

 

Yeto pooyeti neeli megham

Varsham chiliki vellada

Yedo antundi koyala paata

Raagam aalakinchara

 

Wont this passing blue cloud

sprinkle some rain and go?

The cuckoo song is saying something,

enjoy the tune

 

Anni vaipula madhuvanam

Poolu pooyada anu kshanam

Anuvanuvuna jeevitham

Anda cheyada amrutam

 

You are surrounded by a beautiful garden

won’t it bloom every second?

Won’t life give you

sweet nectar all the time?

 

Laali laali anu raagam saagutunte yevvaru nidurapore

Chinna podamari chinni praanam

Kaase vennelaku veeche gaalulaku hrudayam kuduta padade

Anta cheda mari venu gaanam

 

When this lullaby tune is being played, why is no one sleeping?

Won’t this little soul feel bad?

Even with the moonlight and the breeze, why is the heart still restless?

Is the music of the flute so bitter?
