Maappula maappula maappula
Maappula maappula maappula

Hey groom, hey groom!
He looks so sharp!
The bride, oh the bride,
Smiled so softly!
Hey hey, groom, hey groom!
He looks so sharp!
The bride, oh the bride,
Smiled so softly!
Life begins now, my friend!
Two hearts are joining as one, my friend!
Once the wedding is done,
The groom's whole status rises, my friend!
Life begins now, my friend!
Two hearts are joining as one, my friend!
Once the wedding is done,
The groom's whole status rises, my friend!
Hey groom, hey groom!
He looks so sharp!
The bride, oh the bride,
Smiled so softly!
Once the wedding is over,
Why would you have any worries?
Just like Ambani's son,
You are going to manage your riches!
From now on, your world
Is an east that shines with light!
It is enough if you just sit back,
There is someone to help you!
In a single moment, your destiny
Holds its head high, understand that, my friend!
Even the night turns into day from now on,
Realize that a new dawn has arrived, my friend!
Her arrival itself brings incoming wealth,
Go and pay off all your debts, my friend!
All the misery you suffered until now,
Wipe it away on her sari, my friend!
Groom, groom, groom!
She, your wife, to you
Must become everything!
To swim in the ocean of happiness,
You must touch her naturally!
Always, she herself
Must give you a fulfilled life!
Even if you do not say anything,
She should ask for your joy and give it to you!
"We must be together in the next life too,"
Pour out poetry like that!
"I want to melt away in your beauty,"
Spin sweet stories like that!
Saying she is your everything from now on,
Forget the rest of the world!
"My life must leave me only beside you,"
Say it with deep emotion and become one with her!
Groom, groom, groom!
Groom, groom, groom!
