ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
ஓத்த பார்வை முத்தம் தந்து
உசுருகுள்ள எச்ச பட்டதே
எத்தனையோ பொண்ண பாத்தேன்
எவ்வளவோ கண்ண பாத்தேன்
சித்தாறி கண்ணு பட்டு
சித்த நேரம் செத்து போனேனே
Aha lady, aha lady
Aha lady, aha lady
Giving a kiss with a single glance
She left her mark deep inside my soul
I have seen so many girls
I have seen so many eyes
Struck by her captivating eyes
I felt like I died for a brief moment
அம்மாடி ஆத்தாடி
அம்பு தைச்சதே
காத்தாடி போல நெஞ்சு
விண்ண தொட்டதே
தாய் பசுவ சுத்தி
வரும் கன்னுக்குட்டியா
தன்னால என் மனசு
உன்ன சுத்துதே
ஊர் எதுவோ பேர் எதுவோ
என்னங்க ஏனுங்க கொஞ்சம் சொல்லுங்க
Oh my goodness
An arrow has pierced me
My heart, like a kite
Touched the sky
Like a calf coming around
The mother cow
On its own, my heart
Keeps revolving around you
Whatever your town is, whatever your name is
Please tell me a bit
ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
ஓத்த பார்வை முத்தம் தந்து
உசுருகுள்ள எச்ச பட்டதே
எத்தனையோ பொண்ண பாத்தேன்
எவ்வளவோ கண்ண பாத்தேன்
சித்தாறி கண்ணு பட்டு
சித்த நேரம் செத்து போனேனே
Aha lady, aha lady
Giving a kiss with a single glance
She left her mark deep inside my soul
I have seen so many girls
I have seen so many eyes
Struck by her captivating eyes
I felt like I died for a brief moment
தாவி ஓட கரை தொடும் நதி அலை
தாளம் போடும் திரையிடும் நுரையில
காத்தில் ஆட மர இலை கிளை இலை
கானம் பாடும் குயில் அவ குரலுல
Leaping and running to reach the shore
Is the river wave
Keeping rhythm and forming a screen
In the foam
Leaves and branches dancing in the wind
A singing cuckoo resides in her voice
காதல் தேவி நறுமணம்
வீசுற பூவ
இளமையா விழுங்கிய
எட்டு வண்ண வானவில்
அவ மழை கொட்டி நின்னும்
பூமி வாழும் அவ
வானபுயுல அட கட்டி
கொள்ள தோணும் சிலை அவ
மன கட்டுபாட்ட மீறும்
கலை அவ தானடா
ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
Goddess of love, a flower
Spreading fragrance
Engulfing youthfulness
An eight-colored rainbow
Standing like pouring rain
She is the richness of the earth
Embracing the sky
She is a sculpture that tempts one to hold
Overcoming self-control
She herself is an art form, my friend
Aha lady, aha lady
பார போல கரமுர உதடுல
பாச காரி இதழ் அது இனிப்புல
தேனீ ஈய பருகிய நொடியில
யாரு நானு தெரியல புரியல
ஆச நோய வெதைச்சது தேவதை மூச்சு
சகலமும் மறந்திடு
என்ன செஞ்ச தீயில் உருகிட
அடி உன்ன என்னை நேசம் பெருகிட
குல மண்ணை விட்டு போகும் வரையில
தினம் உன்ன மட்டும் தேடும்
உயிரிது தானடி
On my rough, rock-like lips
Her loving lips bring sweetness
The moment I drank like a honeybee
I do not know or understand who I am anymore
The angel's breath sowed the illness of desire
Forgetting everything else
Melting me as if placed in fire
Hey, thinking of you, love overflows
Until I leave this native soil
Daily searching only for you
This is my soul, girl
ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
ஆஹா அம்மணி ஆஹா அம்மணி
உசுருகுள்ள எச்ச பட்டதே
எத்தனையோ பொண்ண பாத்தேன்
எவ்வளவோ கண்ண பாத்தேன்
சித்தாறி கண்ணு பட்டு
சித்த நேரம் செத்து போனேனே
Aha lady, aha lady
Giving a kiss with a single glance

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Aaha Ammani from Kavundampalayam is a vibrant love song expressing a man's instant infatuation and deep devotion upon meeting a captivating woman. He describes how a single glance struck him like an arrow and left a lasting mark on his soul, lifting his spirits like a kite soaring high into the sky. He poetically compares his heart's attachment to a calf circling its mother cow, completely mesmerized even before knowing her name or origin. As the song progresses, the protagonist celebrates her beauty using nature imagery—comparing her voice to a cuckoo, her presence to a rainbow and rain, and her love to sweet nectar that softens his rugged nature. He vows an enduring, lifelong love that will search for her endlessly.
