Onam Songs: Onapattukal Malayalam Songs – The harvest and state festival of Kerala (India) – Onam – is celebrated with pomp and gaiety by Malayalees all over the world. It is a ten-day carnival, when people in Kerala indulge themselves in the preparations for welcoming their legendary king – Mahabali. Songs are sung during the festive season, to spread good cheer and celebrate the festival.
There is a wide collection of Malayalam folk songs that carry the real essence of Onam. Most of the songs depict the festivities that are in the air during the season. Many are written to praise King Mahabali and describe the picturesque beauty of God’s own country – Kerala. Certain songs are sung exclusively during Vallamkali (snake boat race) competitions and swing rides. While many songs are traditional, albums have also been released during the festive occasion, comprising of Onapattukal (Onam songs). Given below are the lyrics of a couple of Onam songs.
