I must touch my mother's feet
and worship her, my friend!
Hey, I must build a temple for my mother
and worship her, my friend!
Handsome man with the mark on your brow,
like you,
I have never seen such a good son
on the face of this earth...
Hey, just like you, ha-ha,
there is none before and none to follow!
Oh mother!
I must touch my mother's feet
and worship her, my friend!
Hey, I must build a temple for our mother
and worship her, my friend!
"The sky pours rain,
and the earth yields crops," so he said!
The man who spoke those words,
they praised as a good man!
Whoever grabbed and ate
everything that was grown,
that wicked man,
they rightly called a villain!
If someone does what Kattabomman said,
does that make him a bad man?
Tell me, is that fair?
Hey big brother,
justice is not different from person to person, my friend!
Hey, for all time,
goodness has no caste, my friend!
So I can speak the truth and what is right,
she gave me this birth—
my mother!
Chorus: I must touch my mother's feet
Male: and worship her, my friend!
Chorus: Hey, I must build a temple for my mother

Handsome man with the mark on your brow,
like you,
I have never seen such a good son
on the face of this earth...
Hey, just like you, ha-ha,
there is none before and none to follow!
I must touch my mother's feet
and worship her, my friend!
Hey, I must build a temple for my mother
and worship her, my friend!
You look at the man in the big mansion,
and the man with all the money!
"It is the destiny God wrote on the crown of our heads,"
that is what you say!
Rich and poor—
that divide exists even among the gods, don't you see?
For all these inequalities,
are you asking who is to blame?
Lord Ganesha under the sacred fig tree
stands like a penniless ascetic!
Who on earth wrote his fate like that?
Over there, butter drips down
flute-playing Krishna's face, my friend!
Over here, what is dripping down
brother Subramani's face, my friend?
Did man himself
write all this destiny?
To figure that out, she gave me wisdom—
I must touch my mother's feet
and worship her, my friend!
Hey, I must build a temple for my mother
and worship her, my friend!
Handsome man with the mark on your brow,
like you,
I have never seen such a good son
on the face of this earth...
Hey, just like you, ha-ha,
there is none before and none to follow!
Oh mother!
I must touch my mother's feet
and worship her, my friend!
Hey, I must build a temple for my mother
and worship her, my friend!
