Oh my goodness, oh my girl,
you blessed queen!
Accept me, oh accept me,
you lover of pleasures!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
Your... oh your...
lucky, glowing face!
If you touch here and there,
your touch brings good fortune!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
Taking out the thorn,
shall I help you?
Pluck out the thorn,
gently now.
Starting right here in our town,
you rascal,
drive away this feverish ghost,
slowly.
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
She heated up chicken curry,
cooked and served it!
Hey!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
A little baby sparrow,
they placed in my hand!
Oh my goodness, oh my girl,
you blessed queen!
Accept me, oh accept me,
you lover of pleasures!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
Your... oh your...
lucky, glowing face!
If you touch here and there,
your touch brings good fortune!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
This guy has plenty of stamina!
Chorus: Kappa kappa kappa kappa!
Male: Where is our honeymoon?
Chorus: Kappa kappa kappa kappa!
Is this a romance made in heaven?
Shall I come searching for you?
A scorpion just stung me!
Chorus: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Female: Fire caught across my body!
Chorus: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Hey, staying awake,
staying awake through the night,
chant a healing spell,
and cure me, boy!
The place to lie down,
the sleeping place is shifting!
Once we lie down together,
it takes just three feet of space!
Female: Hey you!
Like a cotton mattress...
Do you want a cotton mattress?
Hey, two mattresses,
are two mattresses enough?
Save it up!
Spend it all!
Female: Whatever you have spent,
save it back up!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
She heated up chicken curry,
cooked and served it!
Hey!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
A little baby sparrow,
they placed in my hand!
Hoy hoy hoy-hoy!
Hoy hoy hoy-hoy!
The sharp prickle of your moustache poked me!
Chorus: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Female: It pierced right into my bead necklace!
Chorus: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Vadipatti town's...
you rascal!
Shall I get married to you
and come along?
The teak tree is waiting!
Female: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Male: The betel nut tree has borne fruit!
Chorus: Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no!
Like two grafted branches joined together,
what a bond!
Shall I launch, shall I launch
a catamaran raft?
The cooked, freshly prepared
food is ready, man!
If it gets cold,
it will be such a bore, man!
On a fine Pattamadai
woven mat,
all alone by yourself,
you are burning with desire!
Hey!
Draw a line!
Lay down a road!
And right over that road,
drive your car!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
A little baby sparrow,
they placed in my hand!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
She heated up chicken curry,
cooked and served it!
Oh my goodness, oh my girl,
you blessed queen!
Accept me, oh accept me,
you lover of pleasures!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
Your... oh your...
lucky, glowing face!
If you touch here and there,
your touch brings good fortune!
Kokkara makka!
Hey!
Kokkara makka!
Taking out the thorn,
shall I help you?
Pluck out the thorn,
gently now.
Starting right here in our town,
you rascal,
drive away this feverish ghost,
slowly.
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,

She heated up chicken curry,
cooked and served it!
Hey!
Kuyya muyya kuyya muyya,
kuyya muyyarey!
A little baby sparrow,
they placed in my hand!

Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This song is a high-energy Tamil folk-pop duet featuring playful banter between a man and a woman. The male singer praises the woman's beauty, charm ('mugaraasi'), and fortunate touch ('kai raasi'), playfully inviting her into romance, while the female singer responds with witty retorts, teasing him about marriage, luxury, and intimacy. Through vivid rural metaphors—ranging from hot chicken curry and baby birds to Pathamadai woven mats and exorcisms—the song captures the flirtatious dynamic of rustic courtship. The repetitive rhythmic hook 'Kuyya muyya' and 'Kokkara makka' enhances the upbeat, festive celebration of youthful affection and banter.
