    Smile Onam Songs :

    Onam Songs :

    There are many songs related to Onam festival. These are a rich collection of Malayali folk and traditional songs. One of the songs tells about the good times of Kerala during the reign of Mahabali. The song goes on as follows:

    "Maveli Nadu Vaneedum Kaalam, Manusharellarum onnu pole,
    Amothathode Vasikkum Kalam, Apathennarkkum Ottillathanum,
    Kallavumilla Chathiyumilla, Ellolamilla Polivachanam,
    Kallamparayum perunazhiyum, Kallatharangal Mattonnumilla
    "

    English translation of this beautiful Onam song:

    ' When Maveli, our King, rules the land,
    All the peoples form one casteless race.
    And people live joyful and merry;
    They are free from all harm.
    There is neither theft nor deceit,
    And no one is false in speech either.
    Measures and weights are right;
    No one cheats or wrongs the neighbor.
    when Maveli, our King, rules the land,
    All the peoples form one casteless race
    .'
