Young flower, youthful flower,
O sweet singing parrot!
It is time for the ceremonial drums and grand celebrations,
Come, come, come outside!
Oh my, my heart has turned into a soaring kite,
It has mounted a chariot to the sky and gone away.
Young girl,
Chorus: Jhum chak jhum chak jhum
Male: Inside the heart,
Chorus: Dumtakku dumtakku dum
Young girl,
The jhum-chak drumbeat,
Inside the heart,
The dumtakku rhythm!
Young flower, youthful flower,
O sweet singing parrot!
It is time for the ceremonial drums and grand celebrations,
Come, come, come outside!
...
All the cherished desires kept inside
Have reached the day to fully bloom!
Set up two copper pots,
And boil milk as an offering to God.
The hard-working beloved groom,
Accept him and let him tie the sacred thread!
Around the heart filled with longing,
Build a protective fence quickly.
To know about the wedding night...
Female: Understand that you must stay awake all through that night!
Male: Take the milk and fruits,
Female: And drink them when going to bed.
Male: Oh tender shoot of a banyan tree, dazzle and fascinate!
Young flower, youthful flower,
O sweet singing parrot!
It is time for the ceremonial drums and grand celebrations,
Come, come, come outside!
...
Prepare delightfully warm water,
And massage him lovingly as he wishes, my girl!
Make rich country-chicken soup,
And stir up his energy and passion!
As cozy warmth fills his body,
Gently press his legs a little, my girl!
To make him circle around you like a little calf,
Wind him up like a key!
Tie your husband to the edge of your saree,
Male: Discover new delights every single day!
Female: Learn how to manage the family,
Male: And hold his tuft firmly in your hand!
Female: Oh, let the month of Aadi pass, hold on until then!
Young flower, youthful flower,
O sweet singing parrot!
Female: It is time for the ceremonial drums and grand celebrations,
Come, come, come outside!
Oh my, my heart has turned into a soaring kite,
Female: It has mounted a chariot to the sky and gone away.
Young girl,
Chorus: Jhum chak jhum chak jhum
Female: Inside the heart,
Chorus: Dumtakku dumtakku dum
Young girl,
The jhum-chak drumbeat,
Female: Play the beat, girl!
The dumtakku rhythm!
Young flower, youthful flower,
O sweet singing parrot!
Female: It is time for the ceremonial drums and grand celebrations,
Come, come, come outside!
