Oh Bannari Mariyamma,
Solaiyamma has come singing to you.
Why haven't you relieved my pain?
Aren't you a woman too, Mother?
Should a woman lose her dignity?
Why didn't you step forth and protect me?
Oh Bannari Mariyamma,
Solaiyamma has come singing to you.
Why haven't you relieved my pain?
Aren't you a woman too, Mother?
Should a woman lose her dignity?
Why didn't you step forth and protect me?
Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Chorus: Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Oh Bannari Mariyamma,
Solaiyamma has come singing to you.
Why haven't you relieved my pain?
Aren't you a woman too, Mother?
Should a woman lose her dignity?
Why didn't you step forth and protect me?
Sita entered the fire
to make Rama believe her;
that is the story told in the Ramayana.
Filled with rage, Kannagi arose
and burned down the town—I belong to that very same kind!
The clouds must darken, the western wind must blow,
and the three seasonal rains must pour down together.
In the middle of the village, that my name is pure,
our kinsfolk and community must stand and declare.
Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Oh Bannari Mariyamma,
Solaiyamma has come singing to you.
Why haven't you relieved my pain?
Aren't you a woman too, Mother?
Should a woman lose her dignity?
Why didn't you step forth and protect me?
I never went astray, I laid down no mat for anyone,
yet you made a chaste woman tremble in distress!
The flower that truly came to reach God's shrine,
you let it scorch and wither away!
The village laughing and endlessly cursing me,
did it not reach your ears?
Helpless and abandoned, I suffer alone now;
do your eyes not see it?
Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Tell me, my Mother, what sin did I commit?
If you just look at me, any wound would heal.
Oh Bannari Mariyamma,
Solaiyamma has come singing to you.
Why haven't you relieved my pain?
Chorus: Aren't you a woman too, Mother?
Should a woman lose her dignity?
Why didn't you step forth and protect me?
