{Mesmerizing beauty, alluring one, enchanting girl,
Oh listen, my sweet sugar candy, my pal!} (2)
Mesmerizing beauty, enchanting girl!
Shake it, shake it!
Shake it, shake it!
Move it, move it!
Move it, move it!
Hooy!
Take this, my tapioca girl... Hooy!
What is it, my spicy curry... Hooy!
Oh my goodness, my crunchy murukku!
Hooy!
Tomato glowing bright red... Hooy!
Papaya intensely sweet... Hooy!
Enchanting beauty with gorgeous curves!
Aithalakka aithalakka
Aithalakka ai
Whatever you do, whatever you do,
Do it with style and perfection!
Hooy!
Take this, my tapioca girl... Hooy!
What is it, my spicy curry... Hooy!
Oh my goodness, my crunchy murukku!
Hooy!
Tomato glowing bright red... Hooy!
Papaya intensely sweet... Hooy!
Enchanting beauty with gorgeous curves...
Hooy...
In your front view, you are Thanjavur,
In your back view, you are the Taj Mahal!
In your stunning figure, you are Mysore Palace,
In the beauty of your legs, you are Qutub Minar!
When looking at your alluring body,
It is like the prized Katchatheevu island!
You are a grand city,
No, the capital city!
From Kashmir up north
All the way to Kanyakumari, everything belongs to you... Ah...
Aithalakka aithalakka
Aithalakka ai
Whatever you do, whatever you do,
Do it with style and perfection!
Hooy!
Take this, my tapioca girl... Hooy!
What is it, my spicy curry... Hooy!
Oh my goodness, my crunchy murukku!
Hooy... Hooy!
Ho ho, now cool it, man!
Hey move it, aha...
A dancing sweet halwa shop,
A swaying grocery store,
A shining utensil shop,
A secret, well-stocked ration shop,
Spreading an intoxicating fragrance,
A little flower stall!
You are a fruit stall,
You are a gold jewelry shop,
Only a clothing store
Is never needed for you!
Aithalakka aithalakka
Aithalakka ai
Whatever you do, whatever you do,
Do it with style and perfection!
Hooy!
Take this, my tapioca girl... Hooy!
What is it, my spicy curry... Hooy!
Oh my goodness, my crunchy murukku!
Hooy!
Tomato glowing bright red... Hooy!
Papaya intensely sweet... Hooy!
Enchanting beauty with gorgeous curves...
{Aithalakka aithalakka
Aithalakka ai
Whatever you do, whatever you do,
Do it with style and perfection!} (2)
