{ Adi poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru } (2)
Yaar idathil un manasu pochu
Noola polae un udambu aachu
Adi poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru
Yaar idathil un manasu pochu
Noola polae un udambu aachu
Vattam ittu suthum kannu veechu
Vaaiya vitu ponathenna pechu
Poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru
Aathangara anthapuram aaki kollavaa
Andha akaraikum ikaraikum kotta katta vaa
Maman kaiyil poovai thanthu soodi kollavaa
Adi aasai ennum oonjal katti aadi kolla vaa
Sollu sollu thitam enna
Solluvathu kashtama
Pothi pothi vachathenna
Enna ennavo ishtama
Koovaama koovuriyae kukoo kukoo paatu
Maataama maati puta soku podi pottu
Yaar idathil un manasu pochu
Noola polae un udambu aachu
Poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru
Oorai ellam suthi vantha otha kiliyae
Ippo oridathil nindrathenna sollu kiliyae
Sontham bantham yaarum indri vantha kiliyae
Oru sontham ippo vanthathenna vaasal vazhiyae
Veru vita aalam kannu
Vaanam thoda paarkuthu
Vaanam thodum aasaiyila
Mella mella pookuthu
Poo poovaa pooka vacha
Maaman avan yaaru
Paadugira paatula thaan neeyum adha kooru
Yaar idathil un manasu pochu
Noola polae un udambu aachu
Poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru
Yaar idathil un manasu pochu
Noola polae un udambu aachu
Vattam ittu suthum kannu veechu
Vaaiya vitu ponathenna pechu
Poonguyilae poonguyilae kelu
Nee paatedutha kaaranatha kooru

{ Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing } (2)
To whom has your heart gone?
Your body has become thin like a thread.
Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing.
To whom has your heart gone?
Your body has become thin like a thread.
Glances from your eyes that swirl in circles,
Why did those words slip out from your mouth?
Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing.
Shall I make the riverbank into a private palace chamber?
Come, let us build a fort bridging that shore and this shore!
Shall I give a flower into uncle's hand and let him adorn me with it?
Come, let us tie a swing of desire and ride on it!
Tell me, tell me, what is your plan?
Is it so difficult to say?
Why have you kept it so secretly hidden away?
Is it some kind of special wish?
Without singing normally, you sing a 'cuckoo cuckoo' song,
You trapped me completely by casting a spell powder!
To whom has your heart gone?
Your body has become thin like a thread.
Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing.
Oh lonely parrot that roamed all around the town,
Tell me, parrot, why have you stood still in one place now?
Oh parrot who came without any kin or bonds,
How did a relative now arrive through the doorway?
The rooted banyan sapling,
Tries to reach and touch the sky.
In its desire to touch the sky,
It slowly blossoms bloom by bloom.
The uncle who made it bloom flower by flower,
Who is he?
Reveal that yourself in the song you sing!
To whom has your heart gone?
Your body has become thin like a thread.
Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing.
To whom has your heart gone?
Your body has become thin like a thread.
Glances from your eyes that swirl in circles,
Why did those words slip out from your mouth?
Oh flower-like cuckoo, flower-like cuckoo, listen,
Tell me the reason why you started singing.
