A bit of strawberry, a bit of mulberry,
The modern girl who tastes sweet to the heart!
Jeans, T-shirt, catwalk, high heels,
Walking stylish and chic, she is a modern girl!
I belong to the butterfly kind,
The secret formula of life is just having fun!
Hey hee hey, ooh la la la, bulbul tara,
Cool and fresh like the flowing Ganga,
Let us live our lives in style!
Ooh beauty girl, oh beauty girl,
Ooh beauty girl, modern girl!
A bit of strawberry, a bit of mulberry,
The modern girl who tastes sweet to the heart!
Outside the window of my home,
The gentle breeze lingers without moving away.
Touched by the dust of my feet,
Roses blossom everywhere.
Outside the window of my home,
The gentle breeze lingers without moving away.
Touched by the dust of my feet,
Roses blossom everywhere.
Indra grew weak, the moon turned dark,
Even Manmathan (god of love) lost his bearings!
Brahma created me, and Brahma himself was stunned,
Night and day, he thought only of me!
Beauty will always win,
Youth will last forever,
The whole world is within my hold, long live!
Ooh beauty girl, oh beauty girl,
Ooh beauty girl, modern girl!
In the eyes of women who look at me,
Jealousy thumps and burns.
In the hearts of men who look at me,
Wild horses gallop and leap!
In the eyes of women who look at me,
Jealousy thumps and burns.
In the hearts of men who look at me,
Wild horses gallop and leap!
Many fell for the beauty of my walk,
Many broke down at the sway of my waist.
Many fell apart at the charm of my smile,
Many were soaked in the beauty of my shower!
I am the music of youth,
I am the modern woman here!
I am the homeland of beauty, long live!
Ooh beauty girl, oh beauty girl,
Ooh beauty girl, modern girl!
A bit of strawberry, a bit of mulberry,
The modern girl who tastes sweet to the heart!
Jeans, T-shirt, catwalk, high heels,
Walking stylish and chic, she is a modern girl!
I belong to the butterfly kind,
The secret formula of life is just having fun!
Hey hee hey, ooh la la la, bulbul tara,
Cool and fresh like the flowing Ganga,
Let us live our lives in style!
{Ooh beauty girl, oh beauty girl,
Ooh beauty girl, modern girl!} (2)

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This energetic song celebrates the carefree spirit, beauty, and confidence of a modern young woman. She compares her sweetness to exotic fruits like strawberries and mulberries while embracing modern attire and an independent lifestyle. The lyrics express her irresistible charm, which mesmerizes men, sparks envy in other women, and leaves even divine beings in awe of her beauty. Composed by Deva with lyrics by Pazhani Bharathi and sung by S. Janaki, the song captures the late 1990s Tamil cinema trend of introducing fashionable, western-influenced heroine intro numbers packed with lively beats and bold expressions.
