அண்ணா நாமம் வாழியவே
ரத்தத்துக்கு ரத்தம் நீயே
Long live the name of Anna!
You are my own blood!
அண்ணா நாமம் வாழியவே
ரத்தத்துக்கு ரத்தம் நீயே
ரெட்டை இலை போலவேதான்
கல்யாண பெண்ணும் நீயும்
இன்று போல் என்றும் வாழ்க.....
Long live the name of Anna!
You are my own blood!
Just like two leaves together,
The bride and you are united,
May you live forever as you do today!
அண்ணா நாமம் வாழியவே
ரத்தத்துக்கு ரத்தம் நீயே....
Long live the name of Anna!
You are my own blood!
ஹேய் ஹேய் ஹெஹ்ஹே
ஆ ஆஹ் அஹஹாஹ்
Hey hey heh heh
Aa aah ahahaah
நானொரு கல்யாண ராமன்தான்
மாப்பிள்ளை உன்னோட தோழன்தான்
மேடையில் பாரு நீ ராஜபார்வை ஹஹா
ஜாடையில் பேசுவா சிகப்பு ரோஜா
I am a wedding Raman,
Groom, I am your friend!
Look at the stage with a kingly gaze, haha,
The red rose will speak through gestures.
பூ மெத்தை போட்டாக்க மொத ராத்திரி
புரியாம முழிக்காத ஒரு மாதிரி
சரசமெல்லாம் சொல்லுவேன்
சகலகலா வல்லவன் நான்....
When the bed of flowers is prepared for the first night,
Do not blink cluelessly like you know nothing.
I will teach you all the arts of romance,
For I am a master of all arts!
எங்கள் அன்னை வாழியவே
பிள்ளைங்களும் வாழியவே
எங்கள் அன்னை வாழியவே
பிள்ளைங்களும் வாழியவே
Long live our mother!
Long live her children!
Long live our mother!
Long live her children!
கையை நம்பி வாழு தம்பி
உன் கையும் பெண்ணின் கையும்
ஒன்று போல் என்றும் வாழ்க....
Trust in your own hands and live, brother,
Your hand and the bride's hand,
May you live together in unity forever.
எங்கள் அன்னை வாழியவே
பிள்ளைங்களும் வாழியவே
Long live our mother!
Long live her children!
இரண்டு இதயங்கள் ஒன்றையொன்று
சந்திக்கும்போது
காதல் பிறக்கும் கல்யாணம் நடக்கும்
பிறகு ஒருவரையொருவர்
எதிர்த்து பேசமுடியவில்லையே
ஓ..... மதர் இவர்களை ஆசீர்வதியுங்கள்.....
When two hearts meet each other,
When they meet,
Love is born and marriage takes place.
Afterwards, against each other,
They can no longer argue!
Oh mother, bless these two!
நண்பனே நான் கூட தோழன்தான்
ஹா நாட்டுல சூப்பர் ஸ்டாருதான்
ஆஹ்....துடிக்கும் கரங்களை மெல்ல புடிச்சு
கெட்டியா போட வேணும் மூணு முடிச்சு
My friend, I am also your companion,
Ah, a superstar in this country!
Aah... gently hold those trembling hands,
And tie the three knots tightly!
பருவத்தில் என்னாட்டம் பாயும் புலி
பக்கத்தில் இருக்காளோ காயத்திரி
நல்லவனுக்கு நல்லவன்
நல்லாயிருன்னு சொல்வேன் நான்
A tiger pouncing in its youth like me,
Is Gayatri sitting right beside you?
A good man to the good,
I wish you all the best!
உன்னை மாதிரி நான் மகான் அல்ல
உன் அன்புக்கு நான் அடிமை
ஆறிலிருந்து நீ அறுபது வரை நல்லாயிருக்கனும்
ஏன் அதுக்கு அப்புறமும் கூட
நீங்க நல்லாயிருக்கணும்
I am not a saint like you,
I am a slave to your love!
From age six to sixty, may you live well,
Why, even beyond that,
May you all live happily and prosper!
