Peacock, oh pretty peacock girl,
Shall we have a playful tussle?

Shall we have a playful tussle?
Cuckoo, oh sweet cuckoo girl,
Oh, come over to cuddle!
Ooh... peacock, oh pretty peacock girl,
Shall we have a playful tussle?
Cuckoo, oh sweet cuckoo girl,
Oh, come over to cuddle!
Hey... this peacock, this pretty peacock girl,
She will not have a playful tussle!

Hey, do not play pallanguzhi (traditional board game) with your eyes!
Do not keep tucking and hiding me inside your saree pleats!
You bend me like a tender jasmine vine!
You hold me tight in a crab grip!
Male: I will only touch and caress you,
Your saree will not even get crumpled!
Without wetting the top of your head,
You cannot take a proper bath!
Male: I am just a young boy, I do not know how to swim!
Peacock, oh pretty peacock girl,
Male: Shall we have a playful tussle?
Female: Cuckoo, oh sweet cuckoo girl,
Male: Come over to cuddle!
Mmmm... my sweetheart, my darling,
Do not stare at my saree drape!
When I cover my chest,
My heart breaks into a sweat inside!
Your body is as soft as cotton candy,
I want to fondle you, turn towards me a little!
Female: My love, my head is spinning...
I am not old enough for this yet!
Whenever I come close to you,
It feels like needles pricking my chest!
Female: Ahhh, do not put your hands here and there...
Hey... peacock, oh pretty peacock girl,
Shall we have a playful tussle?
Cuckoo, oh sweet cuckoo girl,
Come over to cuddle!
Hey... this peacock, this pretty peacock girl,
She will not have a playful tussle!
This cuckoo, this sweet cuckoo girl,
Oh, she will not come to cuddle!
Oh no, why are you being so stubborn?
Female: Oh no, why are you clapping and celebrating?
Clapping and celebrating... clapping and celebrating...
