Entammede jimikki kammal, Entappan kattondu poye
My mother’s ear ring (Jimikki Kammal) is stolen by my father
Entappante brandy kuppi, Entamma kudichu theerthe
My father’s brandy bottle is emptied by my mother
Ividoru chakarayum Velakaleeyum oththu vannapol
Here, when a shoal of fish and fishing game came together
Chilarude thorthu keeri Poya karyam orthupokavea
Thought of somebody’s towel torn off came
Alakale kattine nee Kaathu kuththan paadu pedeanda
O Shores, don’t try yourself to pierce the ear of the wind
Sahachara senapathi veera Vadukaamaloluka
O moral police, soldier, and obsessive lover
Entammede jimikki kammal, Entappan kattondu poye
My mother’s ear ring (Jimikki Kammal) is stolen by my father
Entappante brandy kuppi, Entamma kudichu theerthe

Chemmeen chadiyal muttolam
Prawns can jump till the knee
Pinneyum chadiyal chattiyolam
If it jumps again then it reaches the pot
Chumma oothaan nokkathea
Don’t try to trigger me
Theyyam kalikkan nikkaathea
Don’t try to play theyyam with me (Theyyam is an art form)
Vattam chuttichorellaam Vatta poojyam polaaye
All those who troubled me became like a big zero
Vettam kaanaan kothiyaaye, Vettathirangan madiyaaye
Longing to see some light, but also lazy to go out
Kalivesham poyeda
Your game is over
Ini vesham mareda
Now change your dress/identity
Malayaattoor palliyil oru Kurishum koda neram
Let’s offer a cross to Malayattoor church
Malapole vannathu Elipole paanjeda
That came like a mountain returned like a rat
Channam pinnam chellam Mazha podikkunnu podiyooth’akale
Rain pouring, making random noises down somewhere nearby
Entammede jimikki kammal, Entappan kattondu poye
My mother’s ear ring (Jimikki Kammal) is stolen by my father
Entappante brandy kuppi, Entamma kudichu theerthe
My father’s brandy bottle is emptied by my mother
