Why are you hesitating back and forth?
Just close your eyes and dance the kuthu!
Dance, boys, dance!
Look around and find a pretty girl!
Sing, boys, sing!
Run after the swirling skirts!
All the girls seated around
are our aunts' daughters,
and all the other girls
are our uncles' daughters!
Clapping and beckoning to us
are those two mischievous eyes!
To question what we do,
or tell us to stop,
there is nobody to hold us back!
Joy and laughter everywhere...
A stylish sister-in-law
frothed up a single tea,
and in a striped glass,
she served it to me!
Like a Thanjavur concert melody,
swaying with grace to the drumbeats,
whispering 'marry me',
she pinched my ear playfully!
To catch a snake,
you need a snake charmer's pipe!
To win over a girl, it's a game of kabaddi!
Hey, to catch a snake,
you need a snake charmer's pipe!
To win over a girl, it's a game of kabaddi!
Look up at the sky,
it's a burst of fireworks!
If your father's daughter walks in,
just shut your eyes tight!
At the toddy shop on the edge of town,
come running, come on, come on!
Let's all unite as brothers
and kick up some fun!
Male & Chorus:
Taking some loose change
from our uncle's pocket,
let's play cards on the village leader's porch!
Chorus: Thannane thanne nane
Thannane naa
Mamama mama mama maa
Maa maa mama mama maa
Mamama maama ma mama mama maa
Mama mama maa mama mama maa
Mangamma's sari pallu
has the swagger of a wrestler!
When she flashes her sharp smile,
sparks shower like festive firecrackers!
Oh, around Andal's waist,
tucked in her five or six sari folds,
dancing to a lively beat
is that bunch of keys!
Open your mouth to get a tooth pulled!
Flash your teeth and smile to win a girl!
Hey, open your mouth to get a tooth pulled!
Flash your teeth and smile to win a girl!
When she walks in wearing her skirt,
she's like a frisky young mare!
To join together and dance,
come step up right before me, girl!
Look at the dance of us roosters,
come strut like a peahen and be my match!
Male & Chorus:
Even if I'm just a span tall, I am the man!
Why are you running away from me, girl?
Even if I'm just a span tall, I am the man!
Why are you running away from me, girl?
Dance, boys, dance!
Look around and find a pretty girl!
Sing, boys, sing!
Run after the swirling skirts!
All the girls seated around
are our aunts' daughters,
and all the other girls
are our uncles' daughters!
Clapping and beckoning to us
are those two mischievous eyes!
To question what we do,
or tell us to stop,
there is nobody to hold us back!
Our lives are always a celebration!
