Machaan… aalaana naal mudhalaa
Yaaraiyum nenachadhilla
Maamaa naan ungalukkae vaakkappada
Aasa pattaen
Vaenaannu sollureengalae
Summaa verum vaaya mullureengalae
Aadiyila kattikittaa sithiraikku pulla varum
Aagaadhu aagaadhu machaana
Idhu thodhaana thai maasam machaanae
Aagaadhu aagaadhu machaana
Idhu thodhaana thai maasam machaanae
Unna naan kattikkolla
Eppavum nenachadhilla
Kalla katti thannikkulla munguravan
Yaarum illa
Vaenaandi vittu vidadi
Naan thavichaakkaa thanni kududi
Thaali katti koodikittaa saami kutham aagumunnu
Maelooru kurikaaran sonnaandi
Adi kannaalam namakkulla vaenaandi
Maelooru kurikaaran sonnaandi
Adi kannaalam namakkulla vaenaandi
Aalaana naal mudhalaa
Yaaraiyum nenachadhilla
Maamaa naan ungalukkae vaakkappada

Pullarukka pogaiyilae

My dear cousin... ever since the day I came of age,
I haven't thought of anyone else.
My dear, to be married only to you
was all I ever wanted.
Yet you keep turning me down,
and just making empty excuses!
If we marry in the month of Aadi, a child will be born in Chithirai,
That won't do, it won't do, cousin!
This month of Thai is just the right time, cousin!
That won't do, it won't do, cousin!
This month of Thai is just the right time, cousin!
As for marrying you,
I have never even thought about it!
Nobody ties a stone to themselves
and dives straight into deep water!
No way, girl, just let it go!
If I'm thirsty, why are you drinking water?!
"If you tie the thali (sacred wedding knot) and marry, it will anger the gods,"
that's what the fortune-teller from Melur told me, girl!
So a marriage between us is totally out!
That's what the fortune-teller from Melur told me, girl!
So a marriage between us is totally out!
Ever since the day I came of age,
I haven't thought of anyone else.
My dear, to be married only to you
was all I ever wanted.
When I went out to cut grass,
in the dewdrop on the tip of a blade,
I saw your face right there,
and came running straight home!
Don't you see my love for you, cousin?
Male: Aha!
Female: This isn't Hanuman's chest to tear open and show you, Rama!
Male: Aha!
Female: Don't you see my love for you, cousin?
This isn't Hanuman's chest to tear open and show you, Rama!
In the backyard, the mango tree
is loaded with bunches of fruit.
While the watchman is fast asleep,
reaching out your hand for the ripe mango
and plucking it secretly makes it truly sweet!
Girl, it's delicious only when a squirrel nibbles it!
Plucking it secretly is what makes it truly sweet!
Girl, it's delicious only when a squirrel nibbles it!
I strung a garland of fresh flowers, my king,
and made a home in your heart to live in, my king!
I was born and raised thinking only of you,
my king, oh my king!
Oh girl, as for marrying you,
I have never even thought about it!
Tying a stone to oneself and diving into water—
nobody ever does that!
You tied up a bull calf
and wished to milk it!
You prayed at the temple for a chick to give birth!
You're being so foolish, my dear!
Hey, my life will never blend with yours!
You're being completely foolish, my dear!
Hey, my life will never blend with yours!
Aha! In a one-on-one fight,
you're the kind of man who runs away!
Just seeing a dead snake,
you're the brave hero who screamed in fright!
Male: Hey...
Female: Are you really all that great, cousin?
Male: Ah...
Female: Just look at how much I yearn for you, cousin!
Male: What?!
Female: Are you really all that great, cousin?
Just look at how much I yearn for you, cousin!
Just hold your tongue for a bit, here I come!
I am a real man, just watch my courage!
If I set my mind to it, I can bend a mountain!
Here I come, yes, here I come!
My dear cousin... ever since the day I came of age,
I haven't thought of anyone else.
As for marrying you, I have never even thought about it!
Yet you keep turning me down!
Hey, I don't want to, girl, just let it go!
If I tie the thali (sacred wedding knot) and marry you, it will anger the gods, girl!
That won't do, it won't do, cousin!
Hey, no marriage between us, girl!
That won't do, it won't do, cousin!
Hey, no marriage between us, girl...
