Ah......ah......ah......ah.....ah.....
It is spinning my mind and blurring my eyes!
This intoxication of love...
It is telling me to sing poetry, my friend!
Hey hey hey hey-hey hey
It spins my mind, it blurs my eyes,
The intoxication of love tells me to sing poetry!
It spins my mind, it blurs my eyes,
The intoxication of love tells me to sing poetry!
Admiring the sweet parrots in my hands,
Hoy hoy!
This is a sight never seen before, my god!
Just feasting my eyes on this makes the whole world spin!
It spins my mind, it blurs my eyes,
The intoxication of love tells me to sing poetry!
Hey hey hey hey-hey hey
This is a cloud drifting through the forest, ah...
This is a melody born out of love!
Sa-ri-ga-ma-pa-dha-ni-sa sa-ni-dha-pa-ma-ga-ri-sa
This is a cloud drifting through the forest, ah...
This is a melody born out of love!
This is a scene of birds celebrating in their nest,
This is a sight dancing along with the youthful breeze!
This is a scene of birds celebrating in their nest,
This is a sight dancing along with the youthful breeze!
It spins my mind, it blurs my eyes,
The intoxication of love tells me to sing poetry!
...
Gather around to dance and celebrate with joy!
Sing a song right on the village street!
Ah......ah.....ah....ah.....
Gather around to dance and celebrate with joy!
Sing a song right on the village street!
Local liquor raises your high pitch—what a rush!
But if the cop catches you, it is pure trouble!...

Trivia
Written by legendary lyricist Vaali for the 1983 film 'Naan Sootiya Malar', the song playfully mixes classical swara solfege (Sarigamapathanisa) with colloquial street-dialect humor like 'Patta thanni' (country liquor) and 'Thaanaakkaaran' (policeman).
