ഒരു വാക്കിലുമുരുകാത്ത
ശിലയാവാനാശിച്ചു ഞാന്
ഒരു നോക്കിലുമലിയാത്ത
ശില്പ്പമാവാനോര്ത്തു ഞാന്.
ഓരോ ശിലയിലുമാത്മാവു കണ്ട
നാളൊരു ശില്പ്പിയായി ഞാന്.
ശിലയാവാന് കൊതിച്ചു ഞാന്
ശില്പ്പമാവാന് കൊതിച്ചു ഞാന്
ശിലയില് ശില്പ്പം പണിയുമൊരു
കല്മണ്ഡപത്തിന് ശില്പ്പിയായി ഞാന്.
I wanted to be
A stone with a soul
A sculpture with a heart
And I became the sculptor …
The sculptor who carved out soulful sculptures from soulful stones
I became the sculptor who breathed life into stone

(A literal translation)
I wanted to be like that stone that does not melt under words …
I wanted to be that sculpture that does not melt under a gaze ..
I became that sculptor who saw a soul in every stone (I carved)
I dreamt of becoming a stone
I dreamt of becoming a sculpture
However, I ended up being a scultpor who created sculptures out of stones

I never wanted to be a stone,
a stone that melts for
the magical spells of love,
I wanted to be the
Koh -i- Noor
the queen of diamonds.
I wanted to be a sculpture
that withstands the gaze
of the most charming eyes,
I wanted to be the
David of Michael Angelo.
I wanted to be a painting
that stays mysterious
for centuries,
I wanted to be the
Mona Lisa of Leonardo.
I wanted to be a diamond
I wanted to be a sculpture,
I wanted to be a painting,
I wanted to be a masterpiece.
In the end..
with all those dreams in the heart
life made me a sculptor,
a sculptor who gives life to the stones I carve
