Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Handsome boy with lovely eyes, hey hey!
Tough and rugged handsome boy, hey hey!
Are you trying to catch a young hen?
Are you planning to cook a feast?
Come fight me one on one!
Come on, this is Jallikattu (bull-taming game) to catch a hen, ha!
Girl with the lovely waist, hey hey!
Girl with a waist rhythmic like an urumi drum, hey hey!
My perfect match of a girl,
Fresh as betel leaves from the garden,
We don't need a one-on-one fight, girl!
Get lost, this is just a playful Jallikattu!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Handsome boy with lovely eyes, hey hey!
Male: Girl with the lovely waist, hey hey!
...
You're the guy who used to dance around the blazing bonfire,
Why are you standing so cautiously now, hey?
Male: If it turns into a fight, I'm the champion!
You are Madurai jasmine blooming in a half-saree!
Handsome Usilampatti boy, sweet like a basket of fruit,
Right now, you are the weighing scale for me!
Ha, when a woman starts smiling, it's all over,
Even fertile land turns dry and barren!
Hey, why all these clever, tricky words?
Now my breath is burning hot like an iron!
Ah... don't stir up a fire just to warm yourself, girl!
You won't be able to handle this red bull's wild fury!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Handsome boy with lovely eyes, hey hey!
Tough and rugged handsome boy, hey hey!
Girl with the lovely waist, hey hey!
Girl with a waist like an urumi drum, oh... hey!
...
Yesa yesa yesa yesa!
Yesa yesa yesa yesa!
A girl who claims to think bold and modern,
Hey, are you stubbornly counting three legs on a rabbit?
Kannagi and I are one and the same now!
Male: Oh really!
Female: If I lose my temper, this entire land will burn!
I hold a Karumathur machete in my hand!
You're just a little child, what do you need that for?
Hey, don't try to scare me with empty threats!
Goddess Meenakshi rules this place!
Male: Once I give my word, I never take it back,
Even Lord Sokkan (Sundareswarar) will be my witness!
Ah, in this hen's heart, you are the only rooster!
If you try to act clever with me, I will murder you!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Handsome boy with lovely eyes, hey hey!
Tough and rugged handsome boy, hey hey!
Male: Girl with the lovely waist, hey hey!
Girl with a waist like an urumi drum, hey ho-hey!
Ah, are you trying to catch a young hen?
Ah, are you planning to cook a feast?
Male: We don't need a one-on-one fight, girl!
Female: And then?
Male: Get lost, this is just a playful Jallikattu!
Female: Oh really?
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
