Anisuthide Yaako Indu - Translation

A look at the hit counters on my blog made me realize the amount of people who are searching for a Kannada to English translation of the song "Anisuthide Yaako Indu" from the Kannada movie Mungaaru MaLe. So, here is an attempt to translate the song to English. But, I would like to mention that the essence of the original song is not there in the translated version.

This translation is specifically dedicated to that one particular soul who googled for "May I get the english translation of Anisuthide". Never before have I heard of anyone being so polite to a search engine :))

Anisuthide yaako indu, neenenay nannavaLendu
maayada lokadinda, nanagaagi bandavaLendu
Aaaha yentha madhuraa yaathane
kollu hudugi ommay nanna, haagay summanay

There is a feeling at this instant, which makes me wonder, whether are you the one for me ?
Are you the one, who has descended from the land of illusion just for me?
Oh! It is such a pleasurable sensation.
Come on girl, let me be in this feeling forever.

Suriyuva soneyu suuside ninnaday parimaLa
Inyaara kanasalu, neenu hoedaray taLamaLa
PoorNa chandira rajaa haakida ninneya mogavanu kanDa kshaNa
naa khydi neene seremanay
tappi nanna appiko ommay, haagay summanay
Anisuthide yaako indu........

This drizzle is dripping with your fragrance.
Your presence in someone else's dream makes me very restless
The full moon went on a holiday after setting sight on you face
Girl, I am the prisoner in the prison of your love
Give me a hug atleast once, just like that.

TutigaLa hoovali, aaDada maatina sihiyide
manasina puTadali kevala ninnaday sahi ide
haNeyali bareyada ninna hesara hrudayadi naane korediruvay
ninagunTe idara kalpanay ?
nanna hesara koogay ommay haagay summanay

There is the sweetness of the unspoken words on your soft lips
My mind/heart is filled with you
Although you are not in my destiny, I have carved your name in my heart/mind
Oh Girl, are you aware of this ?
Call out my name atleast once, Just like that!

Anisuthide yaako indu, neenene nannavaLendu
maayada lokadinda, nanagaagi bandavaLendu
aaaha yentha madhuraa yaathane
kollu hudugi omme nanna haagay summanay

There is a feeling at this instant, which makes me wonder whether are you the one for me ?
Are you the one who has descended from the land of illusion just for ?
Oh! It is such a pleasurable sensation.
Come on girl, let me be forever in this feeling.

As I mentioned before, the translated version does not have the essence of the original. You must know kannada to completely understand the essence and to feel the soul of this song. The best part about the song is its simplicity and straight from the heart feeling. Hats off to the lyricist, Jayanth Kaykani for coming up with this awesome song, the music director, Mano Murthy for composing the music and the playback singer, Sonu Nigam for rendering it in such a way that it conveys the emotion behind it extremely well!

Hi
I'm from chennai and I do not know Kannada. I happened to be in coorg for about a week this january.When I had requested to play songs from Ganesh's super hit Mugangaru male and Gallipatta since I have heard of its monster boxoffice hit status. WoW! We are floored and since then we are hooked to this two albums. THanks for english translitration. We can appreciate it even better.
Thanx once again.

Good job dude. I have a small request though. Similar songs (tune wise) hav e been sung by the actor and actress in this movie.

If at all you could put the translation of the female version as well, it would be GREAT! I know this much that the meaning of the female version of this song is the girl's point of view...of the relation..right??

Thanks a lot in advance.

Thanks a lot!!

sahdeV said...

Thanks... wonderful song!

Also, I see that Kannada and Marathi have too many common words, ofcourse except for the verbs. (I am not into linguistic studies really, just an observation i made here..)

sahdeV said...

again!! a wonderful song!

Can you recommend me any more of such good songs in kannada???

Hey PizzaDude,

Nice work man. I just loved this song even though I did not understand a single word of it. Don't know why, but this song has a charm. That's the beauty of music I guess which has language no bar. Now that you have given us the translation of this song, I am very much thankful to you & I must say love & affection towards this song has multiplied 1000s of times. Thanks once again.

Regards
Surendra

Wonderfully done, you have certainly captured the beauty of the words, as much as possible, in English.

I do agree, ನಮ್ಮ ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಇರುವ ಮಧುರ ಬೇರೆ, but I certainly appreciate your effort!

thanks for the translation buddy this song reminds me the initial days of graduation in Mysore , still remember the laughter within the local friends when I pronounced "male"(maalleh) on my version I knew the brief story of that film ,at that time there was no one to translate the exact meaning of the songs sorry for my friends circle but they are good enough for a man like me hope they excel in their endeavor fields, because of this we went to DUSSERA YOUTH FESTIVAL something like that for Sonu Nigam concert, they were very disappointed as he was not singing any regional songs other than Hindi songs, thanks MAGA's for all the memorable happenings
