Draped in a bridal silk saree, stealing the town's glances,
Here comes Chellamma like a magnificent chariot!
Pouring a milky smile, a girl who dazzles everyone,
Find an auspicious day and come tell me, dear girl!
If you desire, I will take you as my own,
I will hold you in my heart and keep you close forever.
Tucking in your dhoti tight and composing a fresh song,
Did you come to check me out, dear sir?
Oh, you are a good-for-nothing, and I am a sweet block of jaggery,
Did you come to pick a fight with me in vain?
……………….
Come, my chariot, my mind is boiling with passion,
My pulse and nerves throb with desire every day!
I will truly shower you with millions of pleasures,
Come into my embrace and yield to me!
Uncle, you have no shame at all,
Male :Hey
Female :You are fit for nothing else!
Male :Heh
Female :Desire stirs deep within me,
But I am still just a young girl!
Male :Oh peacock…
Female :Ahaang…
Male :Oh cuckoo…
Female :Mhum
Male :Shall I gather you? Shall I pinch you gently? Come slowly!
Tucking in your dhoti tight and composing a fresh song,
Did you come to check me out, dear sir?
Male :Pouring a milky smile, a girl who dazzles everyone,
Find an auspicious day and come tell me, dear girl!
……………
Look at him, at an age when he should be holding a walking stick,
The moment he sees a maiden, his vigor surges!
Who is the man who can ever oppose me?
I am the man who can swallow the whole town!
I am a strong man who can wrestle an elephant!
Female :Haang
Female :Is it so hard to catch a deer?
Female :Haan
Male :Oh deer, if I touch you,
No one in town will be left unaffected!
Female :Truly?..
Male :Yes…
Female :Oh my goodness…
Male :Come, girl
Female :Stand at a distance, dear sir!
Draped in a bridal silk saree, stealing the town's glances,
Here comes Chellamma like a magnificent chariot… O girl
Female :Haang
Male :O girl
Female :Haang
Male :O girl
Female :You are a good-for-nothing, and I am a sweet block of jaggery,
Did you come to pick a fight with me in vain?
Male :If you desire, I will take you as my own,
I will hold you in my heart and keep you close forever.
Tucking in your dhoti tight and composing a fresh song,
Did you come to check me out, dear sir?

Find an auspicious day and come tell me, dear girl!
