Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
The Goddess's joyous chariot is coming,
don't you want to see it sway gracefully as it arrives?
Come along, girls, let's clap and dance the kummi (folk clapping dance)!
Bow your heads and offer your prayers!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
Female: Ooh... Aah... Aah... Aah...
The jingling of the anklets,
stepping to the perfect beat,
in a fresh new melody,
Thananaana thanthananaa,
Thana thananaana thanthananaa,
The bangles on the wrists,
whispering stories in longing,
with a warm, eager rush,
Thananaana thanthananaa,
Thana thananaana thanthananaa,
Whatever you pray for, just as you asked,
Chorus: Thaanaa thannaa thaanaa thannaa
Female: the Mother will give, so receive her blessing!
Chorus: Thaanaa thannaa thaanaa thannaa
If the Mother's heart is pleased,
good fortune will surely come our way!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
...
As dusk falls,
inside the karuvelam (acacia) woods,
a young girl came with a purpose in mind,
Thananaana thanthananaa,
Thana thananaana thanthananaa,
Asking to deliver a love letter,
that girl pleaded without stopping,
that little girl whose eyes cannot sleep,
Thananaana thanthananaa,
Thana thananaana thanthananaa,
Just because of love,
Chorus: Thaanaa thannaa thaanaa thannaa
Female: should a young girl's heart ache?
Chorus: Thaanaa thannaa thaanaa thannaa
Will the right time ripen for her?
The Mother's kind eyes must look upon her!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
The Goddess's joyous chariot is coming,
don't you want to see it sway gracefully as it arrives?
Come along, girls, let's clap and dance the kummi (folk clapping dance)!
Bow your heads and offer your prayers!
Hey, it has blossomed!
The royal jasmine flower!
Take that flower,
and shower it on the Goddess!
Female: Ooh... Aah... Aah... Aah...
