Mella kottattum ennai thazhuvi
Ennaiyyaa nagaraththil pazhagi
Yaarai paarththaalum manaivi

Patti kaattora singaara azhagi
Parisham pottaakkaa sontha kuruvi
Poonjolai mullaikodi
Kadhal poovaaga pooththaal enna

Hey there, little riverbank sparrow,
where are you slipping away to?
Hey there, little riverbank sparrow,
where are you slipping away to?
Let your thick, flower-decked hair, falling like a waterfall,
cascade gently down and embrace me.
Let your thick, flower-decked hair, falling like a waterfall,
cascade gently down and embrace me.
What is this, mister, with your city habits,
calling every woman you see your wife?
What is this, mister, with your city habits,
calling every woman you see your wife?
I am a charming beauty from the countryside;
pay the bridal gift, and I will be your own little bird!
Like a jasmine vine in a flower garden,
what if you blossom into the flower of love?
Like a jasmine vine in a flower garden,
what if you blossom into the flower of love?
What if I fall over you like the wind and rain,
and look at you with loving eyes?
Like a temple chariot, I am a colorful parrot,
a parrot shining with bright red sindoor!
Like a temple chariot, I am a colorful parrot,
a parrot shining with bright red sindoor!
If you try to lay a hand on me without marriage,
this parrot will peck right at your eyes!
The woman blessed with turmeric and kumkum,
is she not the sacred fire of a temple?
If a man like you talks out of wild passion,
will she just stand by and keep quiet?
The woman blessed with turmeric and kumkum,

Let your thick, flower-decked hair, falling like a waterfall,
cascade gently down and embrace me.
The people who lived in ancient times,
did they ever get married?
The people who lived in ancient times,
did they ever get married?
They enjoyed happiness all the time;
did they ever worry about a married household?
Desire knows no shame,
and there is no shortage of men with mustaches!
Desire knows no shame,
and there is no shortage of men with mustaches!
When lust for a woman takes over, a man goes blind;
so there is no fault in you!
Living like sheep and cattle
is not the right way to live.
We are not the kind of people
who live carelessly any which way!
Living like sheep and cattle
is not the right way to live.

Hey there, little riverbank sparrow,
where are you slipping away to?
Let your thick, flower-decked hair, falling like a waterfall,
cascade gently down and embrace me.
