Oh flower, fragrant screw-pine flower,
You are the depth of my heart.
Oh flower, fragrant screw-pine flower,
You are the depth of my heart.
Making me long to see you again and again,
You are pure magic.
My beauty, with your captivating eyes,
You tied me up completely and pulled me close.
Will you come close to me, my moon?
My flower with a glowing smile,
My ocean, my life's pure honey,
Rhythm of the rain,
You are truly mine.
Oh parrot, my sweet parrot,
Fly down affectionately and play in my nest.
My dream, I have waited for ages.
Tender bud, sweet sugarcane,
Where did you hide, wrapped in your shyness?
Let our lips meet as we lose ourselves in sweet bliss.
My precious gold, my treasure,
My precious gold, my treasure,
My precious gold, my treasure,
Thantha nannaane,
You cast a spell and charmed me,
You made me walk high above the clouds.
Is everything you whispered in my ears really true?
Thinking only of you,
Gathering and stringing all my dreams,
Waiting to exchange wedding garlands,
Am I your gentle doe?
My beauty, why is your flower-like face withering?
Why is there doubt in your heart?
Wouldn't a world without you and me simply fade away?
Lighting a lamp at the sacred grove,
To the beat of the drums, I will tie the thali (sacred marriage thread),
Holding your hand in mine, I will take you with me.
Rhythm of the rain, you are truly mine.
Thanthane thanthane thantha thanthane,
Oh flower, fragrant screw-pine flower,
You are the depth of my heart.
Making me long to see you again and again,
You are pure magic.
My beauty, with your captivating eyes,
You tied me up completely and pulled me close.
Will you come close to me, my moon?
My flower with a glowing smile,
My ocean, my life's pure honey,
Rhythm of the rain,
You are truly mine.
Oh parrot, my sweet parrot,
Fly down affectionately and play in my nest.
My dream, I have waited for ages.
Tender bud, sweet sugarcane,
Where did you hide, wrapped in your shyness?
Let our lips meet as we lose ourselves in sweet bliss.
