Did the chicken come first,
or did the egg come first? Tell me!
Cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle!
Cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle, cock-a-doodle!
Did the chicken come first,
or did the egg come first? Tell me!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Did the sky come first,
or did the blue color come first? Tell me!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Hey cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
The earth wasn't spinning,
and God set it in motion...
Did the earth come before God?
Oh, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Even if you burn it, it won't catch fire—
do you know what that is?
Even if you tear it, it won't rip—
do you know what that is?
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Can a cloud ever
catch fire and burn?
Can the scratch of a pin's tip
ever tear water apart?
Is there any relationship that never parts?
Once it is lost, can you ever replace it?
Explain how rice boils in the cooking pot,
and how it satisfies human hunger—
look at the mystery behind it!
For this riddle called life,
search and find an answer!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Just because the flower-seller is a widow,
would you feel like looking down on her?
For the flowers that she sells,
does the fragrance ever change?
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
For the kurukkathi flower,
even a pile of garbage is a garden.
For all human worries,
the mind alone is the cause.
Is there any field without weeds?
So why worry about anything anymore?
Even the sparrow flying across the sky
eventually returns to its tree.
If you cherish the life you are given,
the sorrows of the heart will fade away.
Ah, when sadness arrives,
you must laugh and laugh and forget it!
Did the chicken come first,
or did the egg come first? Tell me!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Did the sky come first,
or did the blue color come first? Tell me!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo!
The earth wasn't spinning,
and God set it in motion...
Did the earth come before God?
Oh, cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey cock-a-doodle-doo!
