Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
Manam polavae vaazhvu
Unai vandhu thaan saera
Pirandhadhu paadal ingae vaa
Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
Maanaa madhura maappilla ooru
Maayaandi thaan maappilla paeru
Maanaa madhura maappilla ooru
Maayaandi thaan maappilla paeru
Oorkolamaa aathoramaa
Ponna thaedi vandhaaru
Kattaana pattaana raajaa
Pakkatthil yaezhettu koojaa
Vandhaarammaa ninnaarammaa
Ponnodu mogam thaanammaa
Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
Poovaattamaa ponnunga irukku
Raajaavukku suyam varam nadathu
Poovaattamaa ponnunga irukku
Raajaavukku suyam varam nadathu
Andha puram endha puram
Vandha puram nee paaru
Ponnaana ennoda naadu
Ennoda kannaadi veedu
Kondaattam thaan sandhosam thaan
En aasa rojaap poovae vaa
Raajaavukkuk kalyaanam
Nalla raathiri neram oorkolam
Rathi polavae ponnu
Enakkaagavae onnu
Kidaikkanum yaedho onnu thaan
Aiyaa iva naattaama ponnu
Ammaadiyo thaangaadhu kannu
Aiyaa iva naattaama ponnu
Ammaadiyo thaangaadhu kannu
Indha ponnu indha ponnu
Ponna konjam nee paaru
Aahaahaa ammaadi joru
Aadaadha ponnaana thaeru
Onnae onnu kannae kannu
Ponnaaga boomiyil pirandhirukku
Raajaavukku pondaatti
Avar thaedina jodi kedachaachu
Mana maalai thaan podu
Pudhu ponnu nee paaru
Mayakkudhu haiyo haiyo sirikkudhu
Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
Akkaa oru raajaathi
Iva azhagaa sirichu naalaachu
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
May a life that fulfills your heart's desire
come and reach you,
and so this song was born—come here!
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
Manamadurai is the bridegroom's town,
Mayandi is the bridegroom's name!
Manamadurai is the bridegroom's town,
Mayandi is the bridegroom's name!
In a grand procession along the riverside,
he came searching for his bride!
A sturdy and handsome king,
with seven or eight flatterers by his side!
He came here, sister, and stood tall,
filled with longing for this golden girl!
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
There are girls here as lovely as flowers,
so hold a swayamvaram (bridegroom-choosing ceremony) for the king!
There are girls here as lovely as flowers,
so hold a swayamvaram (bridegroom-choosing ceremony) for the king!
To that side, or whichever side,
just look back at the way you came!
This is my golden country,
this is my palace of glass!
It is all celebration and pure joy,
come to me, my beloved rose!
It is a wedding celebration for the king,
with a lovely procession in the night!
A bride as beautiful as Rathi (goddess of beauty),
meant just for me,
I surely need to find one like that!
Sir, she is the village headman's daughter,
goodness me, her beauty dazzles our eyes!
Sir, she is the village headman's daughter,
goodness me, her beauty dazzles our eyes!
Look at this girl, oh this girl,
just take a look at this golden girl!
Aha, my goodness, she is so splendid,
standing still like a golden chariot!
One of a kind, the apple of our eye,
born upon this earth like pure gold!
Here is a wife for the king,
the match he was searching for has been found!
Now exchange the wedding garlands,
and look at this new bride!
Oh my, she charms us all as she smiles!
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
My elder sister is a princess,
it has been days since she smiled this beautifully!
