The eyes of the town and the eyes of kin,
The eyes of a dog and the eyes of a fox,
The eyes of the sick and the squinting eyes,
The good eyes and the burning, envious eyes,
All stray eyes and glaring eyes,
All the eyes casting jealousy and spite,
May every trouble and illness vanish!
May every evil gaze burst like mustard seeds in oil!
May only good things happen for everyone,
May the town and the fields flourish!
The evil eye will fall upon you, sir,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder, hey...
The evil eye will fall upon you, sir,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder...
Male: Yes...
Arranging false witnesses—
such deceit has no place here, never!
Lawyers arguing with lies—
such disputes have never entered this court!
You never studied from big books,
yet you are second to none!
There has never been a need to hold an election,
and in nothing have you ever been defeated!
A brave protector on the streets,
a noble king in delivering fair justice!
In this entire village, sir,
you are our true friend and companion!
In this entire village, sir,
you are our true friend and companion, hey!
The evil eye will fall upon you, sir,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder...
While planting paddy seedlings,
I need a song to sing.
And within that song,
I must send a message to my beloved.
Holding the hand that guides the plow,
I want to walk beside you.
May the Lord of the Seven Hills
come down to bless our bond!
When you take up the plow and walk,
a garland rests upon your shoulder!
Even the cloth draped on your shoulder
comes forward to tell your noble story!
Yours is truly a priceless heritage,
where every common man is like a brother!
Everyone lives only once,
and the poorest are treated as equals!
Our master's sense of honor
surpasses even the legendary Kavari deer (symbol of extreme honor)!
Even that noble deer's proud clan
gains its glory only through your name!
Even that noble deer's proud clan
gains its glory only through your name...!
The evil eye will fall upon you, sir,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder...
Yes... the evil eye will fall upon you, sir,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder!
We must ward off the evil eye for you,
Chinna Gounder...
