Translated from the Malayalam to the English by Mannarakal Dasan
Do not say a word

I have something to say

In the words scrubbed clean

The truths that smells of blood.

The howling was not to excel in howling.

To paste the address of the waste

The tails that couldn’t be straightened

Even by using a Pipe

The weight of faith

Bolted from inside.

When the latches of silence

Depart

The memories open locks of secrecy.

With the belief that I am accompanied

When I am leaving the forest

Dreams that touched my heart

Yearn for freedom.

Today

In the dark

In barren land

Drinking a sea of loneliness

Clouds of fire crawl inside of me

In the paintings signed by traitors

Haven’t  you  separated me?

When tears of pretension

Fail to break the shackles

When smugness gnaws at the bondages

You ask for my keys of vision

By stabbing me with sharp swords.

For my ignorance

For not to testify

I do not have pain today.

You can scratch and take my life

Without spilling a drop of blood

When you are done drinking up all my emotions

Please do let me know

I want to cry in the shock of realisation.
