Enthaho Valladbha padam lyrics with word to word translation and meaning

A Swathi Thirunal padam, where the girl approaches her lover, Padmanabha, on her own. She asks him directly, what happened that he is so silent and doesn’t talk to her. She confesses the pain of her bleeding heart, which was full of love when she came to her lover.  And the surrounding beauty of the nature makes it perfect time for love, yet her lover is rejecting her. She tries to ask him if it was some evil schemes or gossips that made him turn away from her and in the end reproached Padmanabha for forgetting that girls are sensitive creatures (their heart compared to a mimosa flower) and being a gentleman he should not reject her so mercilessly. I liked last charanam particularly :) I found the comparison innocent and touching.
