Mayi, Mayi, Mahamayi (Mother Goddess Mariamman)!
It is Her holy day, this is a sacred day!
Chorus: It is a festival, a grand festival!
The holy sprouted seedlings (mulaipaari),
if we nurture them, She will bless us with all good things!
Chorus: It is a celebration, a great festival!
The goddess with the turmeric-bright face,
She is Mariamman who brings all blessings!
Chorus: The goddess with the turmeric-bright face,

Adorned with fresh flowers,
She is the charming one who blesses brides with marriage!

Inlaid with pearls,
the chariot of gems
rolls through the streets,
like the full moon rising
high up in the sky!
Inspiring deep devotion,
this virtuous Goddess
appeared in the ancient beginning of time,
radiant like the sun,
gentle like the moon!
If you look upon Her glowing face,
you will be spellbound in awe;
but if you walk the wrong path,
you will surely get caught!
In the street, drawing rice-flour kolam (traditional floor art)
and floral designs,
let us carry a rice-flour lamp
and make an offering
at the temple of the Goddess!
Mayi, Mayi, Mahamayi!
It is Her holy day, this is a sacred day!
Chorus: It is a festival, a grand festival!
In the tall brass lamp,
as the pearly bright flame
flickers and shines,
the groom's admiring eyes look on,
and the girl blushes, completely enchanted!
As soon as the month of Chithirai arrives,
we must fix the wedding!
My precious gem, my lovely beauty,
make up your mind,
and think it over in your heart!
By the edge of the temple pond,
who are you looking for?
The sweetheart who sings for you every day,
it is your beloved's name!
This young girl's entire heart
is devoted to you;
I have set my heart on you,
and everything will turn out just right
at the temple of the Goddess!
Mayi, Mayi, Mahamayi!
It is Her holy day, this is a sacred day!
Female: It is a festival, a grand festival!
The holy sprouted seedlings,
if we nurture them, She will bless us with all good things!
Female: It is a celebration, a great festival!
The goddess with the turmeric-bright face,
She is Mariamman who brings all blessings!
Female: The goddess with the turmeric-bright face,
She is Mariamman who brings all blessings!
Adorned with fresh flowers,
She is the charming one who blesses brides with marriage!

Chorus: It is a festival, a grand festival!
The holy sprouted seedlings,
if we nurture them, She will bless us with all good things!
