Haei…..muththu muththu kannamma

Kann thiranthu paarammaa kaasirunthaa poodhumaa
Muththu muththu kannamma
Mookkodainja ponnammaa
Kann thiranthu paarammaa kaasirunthaa poodhumaa
Oorukkulla santhipppomaa
Illa Oththaikkoththai santhippomaa
Adi anniyamaa ennalaamaa
Unga appanthaandi enga mama
Hae….kaadu vetti ponnaiyaa
Kaal valarntha kannaiyyaa
Paaththu konjam pesaiyyaa
Pannaiyaaru ponnaiyyaa

Hey... my precious Kannamma,
my feisty little Ponnamma,
open your eyes and look, is money all that matters?
My precious Kannamma,
my feisty little Ponnamma,
open your eyes and look, is money all that matters?
Shall we meet in the middle of town,
or shall we face each other one-on-one?
How could you treat me like a stranger?
After all, your father is my uncle!
Hey... woodcutter Ponnaiyya,
lanky Kannaiyya,
mind your words when you speak
to this landlord's girl, Ponnaiyya!
Hey hey hey,
hoy hoy hoy,
hey hey hey,
hoy hoy hoy!
A coconut in a dog's mouth
is of no use to anyone!
Aha, even a donkey has four legs,
but it cannot run in a race!
Even among the gods, it is only the rich one
that this world bows down to—look at the truth!
Male: Mischievous girl, arrogant woman,
I am the one who has come to drive away the demon possessing you!
Mind your words when you speak,
Male: Huh?
Female: I am the landlord's daughter, Ponnaiyya!
Male: Hey!
Female: Mind your words when you speak,
Male: Oh, really?
Female: I am the landlord's daughter, Ponnaiyya!
Male: Yeah right, get lost!
My precious Kannamma,
my feisty little Ponnamma,
open your eyes and look, is money all that matters?
...
The whole town is our property,
earned by my father and forefathers!
If even the dog in my house barks,
you will find yourself in big trouble!
Male: Hey... six months on the throne,
and six months in the woods!
Tomorrow, the wind will blow in my favor!
Waiting for the sea to dry up just to eat dried fish,
like a crane waiting on one leg,
someone stands waiting right here, girl!
Listen, you wealthy chatterbox,
you are the perfect match for my bed, hey!
Hey... you wealthy chatterbox,
you are the perfect match for my bed!
Hey... woodcutter Ponnaiyya,
lanky Kannaiyya,
mind your words when you speak
to this landlord's girl, Ponnaiyya!
Woodcutter Ponnaiyya,
lanky Kannaiyya,
mind your words when you speak
to this landlord's girl, Ponnaiyya!
Do not walk away with your tail between your legs!
Male: Get out of here, girl!
Female: Will you dare come pick another fight with me?
Male: Hey...
Female: For the two cows at my house,
Male: Haha!
Female: will you go cut some grass for them?
Male: Go on, get lost!
Hey... my precious Kannamma,
my feisty little Ponnamma,
open your eyes and look, is money all that matters?
