Indha porappu thaan…
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Ahaa…ahaa…
Adha nenachu thaan
Manam olagam muzhuvadhum parakkudhu
Ada suda chuda…aaa
Ada suda chuda andha madhura malli poo idliya
Meen kozhambula konjam poratti saappida
Echilu oorudhu ullukkulla
Indha porappu thaan
Indha porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Indha porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Adha nenachu thaan
Manam olagam muzhuvadhum parakkudhu
Thaamirabarani thirunalvaeli
Sodhiyila oru thani rusi
Vaigaiyil pudicha ayira meenu
Kozhambukku oru thani rusi
Dhindukkal biriyaanikku kathiri thokkirukku
Thenkaasi porottaakku chicken curry irukku
Ammaavin vaasam undu
Vaeppam poo kozhambukku
Ava thaanae ootti thandhaa aaghaaa nelavukku
Unavilae oru uravu irukkudhu
Ullukkullae oru kavidhai pirakkudhu
Porappu thaan aahaahaa aahaa
Aahaahaa haa
Adha nenachu thaan aahaahaa aahaa
Indha porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Kathiri veyilil kodhikkum podhu
Panagam karukku kudikkanum
Kottura mazhaiyil kulirum podhu
Kaarachaevu konjam korikkanum
Aalvalli kezhangukku aahaahaa enna rusi
Ola kozhukkattaikku ohoho enna rusi
Karupatti sukkumalli cofeekku enna rusi
Oororam ottha panai kallukku enna rusi
Boomikkum andha vaanukkum idaiyila
Ovvoru suvaiyium manasu layichadhu
Porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Ada suda chuda…
Ada suda chuda andha madhura malli poo idliya
Meen kozhambula konjam poratti saappida
Echilu oorudhu ullukkulla
Indha porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Indha porappu thaan
Nallaa rusichu saappida kedachadhu
Kedachadhu kedachadhu
This very life of ours...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
Aha... aha...
Just thinking about it,
my heart flies all across the world!
Oh, piping hot... ah...
Oh, those piping hot, jasmine-soft Madurai idlis,
swirled and soaked in fish curry to eat,
my mouth waters deep inside!
This very life...
This very life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
This very life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
Just thinking about it,
my heart flies all across the world!
In Tirunelveli along the Thamirabarani river,
the Sodhi (coconut milk stew) has a special taste!
Ayirai fish caught from the Vaigai river,
its curry has a unique taste of its own!
For Dindigul biryani, there is brinjal gravy,
for Tenkasi parotta, there is spicy chicken curry!
There is the loving scent of mother
in the neem flower curry,
wasn't it she who fed us showing the moon in the sky?
There is a deep bond found in food,
and inside the heart, a poem is born!
This life, ahahaha aha...
Ahahaha ha...
Just thinking about it, ahahaha aha...
This very life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
When boiling in the peak summer heat,
you must gulp down some cool Panakam (spiced jaggery drink)!
When shivering in the pouring rain,
you must crunch on some spicy Kara Sev (crispy savory snack)!
Oh, what a flavor boiled tapioca has!
Oho, what a taste palm-leaf Kozhukkattai (steamed sweet dumplings) has!
What a taste palm-jaggery dry-ginger coffee has!
What a taste fresh toddy from a lone palm tree has!
Between this earth and that wide sky,
in every single taste, the soul is lost in delight!
This life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
Oh, piping hot...
Oh, those piping hot, jasmine-soft Madurai idlis,
swirled and soaked in fish curry to eat,
my mouth waters deep inside!
This very life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
This very life...
We were blessed with it to savor and eat delicious food!
We were blessed, yes we were!
