Celebrating onam everyday of our lives ...

Maveli naadu vaanidum kaalam
manusharellarum onnupole
amodhathode vasikkum kalam
apathangarkkumottillathanum
kallavum illa chathiyumilla
ellolamilla polivachanam
kallapparayum cherunazhiyum
kallatharangal mattonnumilla
adhikal vyadhikalonnumilla
balamaranangal kelppanilla

(See here for the english transation : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onam )

Onam symbolizes equality, honesty and happiness that stems from the lack of lies, and other evils.

We have heard the song so many times that we don't even pay attention to it any more.
But imagine if that could be made possible..

What if one person could live like that?
What if all of us could live like that?

Then, kerala would really become as it is referred to - God's own country.
