Ada maamaa yaenyaa
Samsaaram unakku
Un samsaaram aanenae
Sugam yaedhu enakku
Color TV undaa
Cable connection undaa
Oru mixie undaa
Washing machine thaan undaa
Ungala kattinaa ennaachu em paadu
Ada yaen maa kovam
Em maela unakku
Un aasa pollaadhu
Alavodu nirutthu
Un sangadam perusu
En sambalam sirusu
Idhu purinjirundhaalum
Adam pudikkudhu manasu
Annaadam kathinaa ennaagum em paadu
Ada maamaa yaenyaa
Samsaaram unakku
Ada yaemmaa kovam
Em maela unakku
Nee vaangum sambalam thaanae
Maalini purushan vaanguraan
Saturday park thaan sundaynaa beach thaan
Adi yaendi enna pottu
Dhinam thorum thaakkura
Veliyae thaan paakkura kondaannu kekkura
Puli paal thaannu kettaa kooda
Tharanum avan thaan aambala
Puli adichaalae neeyaa varuvae
Yena yaen maattura vambula
Ada ellaathukkum
Readymade badhil onnu vechirukake
Ada en vaaya thaan
Adha cholli idhacholli thinichirukkae
Ada yaenmaa… en kannu…
Male :Ada yaen maa kovam

Un samsaaram aanenae
Sugam yaedhu enakku
Oru ooril unna pola

Oh darling, why on earth...
...did you ever need a wife?
I became your wife,
but what comfort do I have?
Do we have a color TV?
Do we have a cable connection?
Do we have a mixer grinder?
Do we even have a washing machine?
What has become of my life after marrying you?
Hey dear, why are you...
...so angry with me?
Your greed is dangerous,
keep it within limits!
Your demands are huge,
but my salary is tiny!
Even though I understand this,
my heart remains stubborn!
If this is my plight every day, what will become of me?
Oh darling, why on earth...
...did you ever need a wife?
Hey dear, why are you...
...so angry with me?
With the very same salary that you earn,
Malini's husband manages so well—
it's the park on Saturday and the beach on Sunday!
Hey woman, why do you...
...keep picking on me every single day?
You just look at outsiders and demand everything from me!
Even if she asks for tigress's milk,
a real man should go bring it!
If a tiger pounces on me, will you come save me?
Why are you dragging me into unnecessary trouble?
Oh, for every single thing,
you have a ready-made excuse!
Oh, you have just shut my mouth...
...by making up this and that!
Ah, why dear... my sweet darling...
Hey dear, why are you...
...so angry with me?
Your greed is dangerous,
keep it within limits!
Do we have a color TV?
Do we have a cable connection?
Do we have a mixer grinder?
Do we even have a washing machine?
What has become of my life after marrying you?
Hey dear, why are you...
...so angry with me?
I became your wife,
but what comfort do I have?
In a certain town, just like you,
there lived a milkmaid.
She made a living selling milk,
content with the little she earned.
A pair of dangling earrings on another woman's ears...
...did she spot on the street!
The very moment she saw them,
she desperately wanted those earrings!
Once all the milk was sold,
she planned to buy the earrings at the shop.
"How beautifully will they sway if I wear them?"
She began to daydream like that!
With her bare ears,
in a playful and stylish swing,
she tossed and shook her head!
And right off the top of her head,
she dropped and broke the pot of milk!
Ah, why dear... my sweet darling...
Now you will naturally understand...
...the moral of this story!
Your greed is dangerous,
keep it within limits!
Your demands are huge,
but my salary is tiny!
Even though I understand this,
my heart remains stubborn!
If this is our daily struggle, what will become of me?
Oh darling, why on earth...
...did you ever need a wife?
Hey dear, why are you...
...so angry with me?
Adada adadada tadada...
