கோடி பழம் இருக்கு
கொய்யா தோப்புல நீ ஜோடி
பழம் கேட்டா நியாயமே
இல்ல
There is cooked meat available,
In the weekly market.
If you ask for a mature girl there,
That makes no sense at all!
சமைச்ச கரி இருக்கு
சந்த கடையில நீ சமஞ்ச
பொண்ண கேட்டா
நியாயமே இல்ல
Even if you sign over all your property to me,
I will not come.
Even if you demand it at knifepoint,
I will not yield.
சொத்தெழுதி தந்தாலும்
வர மாட்டேன் கத்தி வச்சு
கேட்டாலும் தர மாட்டேன்
{We have learned this traditional dance
Through generations,
This cannot be sold for mere money,
So please leave!} (2)
{ பரம்பரையா கூத்து
படிச்சது நாங்க இத பணம்
காசுக்கு விக்க முடியாது

மோகினி கை தீண்டாத

There are a thousand men,
Who are in love with me.
But to marry me,
There is a strict condition.
என்ன காதலிப்போர்
ஆயிரம் உண்டு ஆனா என்ன
கட்டிக்கிட நிபந்தனை உண்டு
To be pledged to you in marriage,
I do desire,
But my first husband
Is this dance art itself!
உனக்கு வாக்க பட
எனக்கு ஆசைதான் ஆனா
எனக்கு முதல் புருஷன்
இந்த ஆட்டம்தான்
To blow into a stove to cook for a man,
I will not come.
To bear children and yield my freedom,
I will not give in.
ஆம்பளைக்கு அடுப்பூத
வர மாட்டேன் புள்ள பெத்து
தாடினா தர மாட்டேன்
{Those who agree to this condition,
Come forward,
Otherwise go home and stretch out to sleep,
Go back home!} (2)
{ நிபந்தனைக்கு
கட்டுபட்டவுக வாங்க
இல்ல நீட்டி படுக்க
வீட்டுக்கு வீட்டுக்கு
போங்க } (2)
I am a hot siren,
An untouched mango fruit.

An untouched mango fruit.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
Soodana Mogini from Paayum Puli (2015) is a high-energy folk item song where the female lead asserts her independence, passion for her art, and pride in her heritage. While inviting suitors flirtatiously, she sets bold conditions: her performing art comes first before any domestic duties or marital expectations. She refuses to trade her traditional dance for money or domestic servitude, declaring that any man who wishes to marry her must accept her devotion to her craft.
