Adiyae adiyae en kutty pattasae
Thaniyae thaniyae vandhu vittu velasae
Uyirae uyirae ennai manichu pesu
Kannaal thee veesathadi
Sa re ga ma pa tha ni
Naan solli tharava
Thudikkira aasaiya naan kotti vidava
Varugira aavani
Naan veettil sollava
Idaiveli yen nee vaa

Manakkum anjadi perfume nee
Mayakkum kannula ganja nee
Siricha sinthidum sen thaen nee
Moratcha keeridum kannadi
Udamba sakkara valli nee
Vayasil minnura alli nee
Arugil pakkama vara vekkama

Hey girl, hey girl, my little firecracker!
You came to me in private and totally bowled me over!
My life, my life, forgive me and speak to me!
Don't shoot fire from your eyes, girl!
Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni,
shall I teach you the notes?
Shall I pour out all my restless desires?
In the coming month of Aavani (Tamil wedding season),
shall I talk to my family at home?
Why keep this distance? Come close!
Come, give me a couple of kisses!
You're a fragrant five-foot bottle of perfume!
You're pure intoxication in those hypnotic eyes!
When you smile, you spill sweet honey!
When you glare, you're sharp glass that scratches!
You're sweet as sugar from head to toe!
In the bloom of youth, you're a glowing water lily!
Are you too shy to come near me?
Hey stop there, Kannamma, tell me, my darling!
Hey murmuring Muthamma,
what is that sound inside your heart?
Say it out loud to me!
There is a battle raging inside my soul!
Hey mischievous girl, pinching my heart,
is it fair to push me away?
Just say the word, and to sweep you into my arms,
I'll come bounding like a champion!
We can fight and make up,
we can hold each other tight,
we can place the bindi on your forehead,
and we can have ten children!
We can clash every now and then,
we can reach out and touch each other,
settling all our unfinished bonds from the past,
and as for the rest, thananana!
I had become completely one with you,
so why did you turn into a stranger?
Was it for this that I waited all those days?
Why did you turn it all into a mirage?
This isn't enough, stay even further away!
Go find your happiness staying single!
Male: This will never happen again,
forgive me, my sweet darling!
Watching the path where your feet walk,
I'll lay my heart down and wait for you!
Hey murmuring Muthamma,
what is that sound inside your heart?
Say it out loud to me!
There is a battle raging inside my soul!
Hey mischievous girl, pinching my heart,
is it fair to push me away?
Just say the word, and to sweep you into my arms,
I'll come bounding like a champion!
Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni,
shall I teach you the notes?
Shall I pour out all my restless desires?
In the coming month of Aavani (Tamil wedding season),
shall I talk to my family at home?
Why keep this distance? Come close!
Come, give me a couple of kisses!
You're a fragrant five-foot bottle of perfume!
You're pure intoxication in those hypnotic eyes!
When you smile, you spill sweet honey!
When you glare, you're sharp glass that scratches!
You're sweet as sugar from head to toe!
In the bloom of youth, you're a glowing water lily!
Are you too shy to come near me?
Hey stop there, Kannamma, tell me, my darling!
Hey murmuring Muthamma,
what is that sound inside your heart?
Say it out loud to me!
There is a battle raging inside my soul!
