Tell me the way to the town the lad is heading to!
Chorus: Tell me the way to the town the lad is heading to!
Male: Hey Karuppa, tell me the way!
Chorus: Be responsible and tell him the way!
Even my child could tell the way.
Chorus: Even that bird could tell the way.
Female: Stop your annoying, teasing song!
Chorus: Then show the lad the way yourself!
Hey, our village is over that side.
Once all the work is done,
I will hitch the cart and take him along... hey!
Parrot, oh parrot!
Chirping, chirping parrot!
Parrot, oh parrot!
Chirping, chirping parrot!
Cuckoo, oh cuckoo!
Cooing, cooing cuckoo!
Ah, just like a parrot,
even I have become,
for she locked my heart in a cage!
Ah, just like a cuckoo,
even I have become,
for she kept me in the nest of her heart!
Lost in thoughts of love,
I too,
am flying in the breeze, yeah yeah yeah!
Parrot, oh parrot!
Chirping, chirping parrot!
Cuckoo, oh cuckoo!
Cooing, cooing cuckoo... yeah...
The moment I saw her,
I saw the other half of my life.
The language that soul speaks to soul,
I heard within my very breath.
If she comes and stands before me,
I will give away the rest of my life.
Just being within her sight is enough,
I will stay at her feet like a devotee.
When she smiles, light
is born.
When she turns away, the world
goes dark.
Just a glance from her,
and my hunger vanishes.
The very direction where she is
becomes beautiful.
Without even a two-second
break in between,
I keep thinking of her... yeah yeah yeah...
Parrot, oh parrot!
Chirping, chirping parrot!
Cuckoo, oh cuckoo!
Cooing, cooing cuckoo!
Some girls have a lovely smile,
some girls have sweet words,
but that even pride can be a beauty,
I learned by looking at her.
Some girls are pretty to look at,
some girls are sweet to be with,
but both beauties blended into one,
I saw only in her.
When she
forgets her umbrella in the rain,
I can never
enjoy that rain.
But when my shadow
falls upon her to shield her,
I will never
hate the scorching sun.
She changed me completely,
and into my bloodstream,
she poured sweet honey... yeah yeah yeah...
Parrot, oh parrot!
Chirping, chirping parrot!
Cuckoo, oh cuckoo!
Cooing, cooing cuckoo!
Ho hoy...
