Nalla kaaraam pasukkalellaam
Kaattu pulla maeyayilae
Pullaanguzhal eduththu
Paattu solvaan muththukkaala
Yammaa en paatta ketkkum maaduthaan
Karanthidum ennaalum yaezhu padi paaluthaan
Namma paattukkum maattukkum koottu irukku paaru
Idha veettukku veedu kooridum intha ooru
Nalla kaaraam pasukkalellaam
Kaattu pulla maeyayilae
Yammaa en paatta ketkkum maaduthaan
Namma paattukkum maattukkum koottu irukku paaru
Idha veettukku veedu kooridum intha ooru….hoi
Haei pasu maadu ondru madi vaththi pochchu endru
Nee adi maadendru adha vikka pogalaama
Adhu mattum aaaathu ennaalumae
Unai vittu pogaathu on paavamae
Eppothum nandri ketta jaadhi namma jaadhi
Seththaalum kaalsodaagum vaayattra piraani
Ennaannu naanum solla kettu pochchu bhoomi
Eppothu manushanukku puththi tharum saami
Paaluthaan thantha maaduthaan
Ingu innoru thaayena
Eppothum kenjida venum
Nalla kaaraam pasukkalellaam
Kaattu pulla maeyayilae
Yammaa en paatta ketkkum maaduthaan
Namma paattukkum maattukkum koottu irukku paaru
Idha veettukku veedu kooridum intha ooru….hoi
Naam dhenam maadu maeichchaa
Idhilenna kevalamdaa

Pasu maatta meaichchavandaa
Engaeyo oru maadu dhisai maarinaa
Enai thaedi varum paaru kuzhaloodhinaa
Andraadam kadhil vizhum maadu kaththumpothu
Ammaannu naama sonnaa aaramba vaarththai
Ammaava paarththathilla naan poranthapothu
Komaathaa pola oru thaayingu yaedhu
Paasamaa uyir naesamaa
Idhu kaattuthu paalaiyum oottuthu ovvoru naalum
Nalla kaaraam pasukkalellaam

When all the fine cows
Graze on the wild grass in the forest,
Taking out his bamboo flute,
Muthukkaalai sings his song!
Oh, the cow that listens to my song
Yields seven full measures of milk every day!
Look at the deep bond between our song and the cattle!
The whole village talks about this from house to house!
When all the fine cows
Graze on the wild grass in the forest,
Oh, the cow that listens to my song,
Look at the deep bond between our song and the cattle!
The whole village talks about this from house to house... hoy!
Hey, just because a cow's udder has run dry,
Can you go and sell it off for slaughter?
That should never, ever happen!
Your sin will never leave you!
We humans are always an ungrateful kind,
Yet even in death, this speechless creature becomes shoes for our feet!
What more can I say? The world has gone bad!
When will God give some sense to mankind?
The cow that gave us milk
Is like a second mother here,
And we should always cherish her with devotion!
When all the fine cows
Graze on the wild grass in the forest,
Oh, the cow that listens to my song,
Look at the deep bond between our song and the cattle!
The whole village talks about this from house to house!
If we graze cattle every day,
What is there to feel ashamed about, my friend?
Even Lord Gopala (Krishna),
Was someone who grazed cows!
If a cow strays off somewhere,
Just watch, it comes searching for me when I blow my flute!
Every day, when the cattle moo, what we hear
Is 'Amma' (mother), the very first word we ever spoke!
I never saw my mother when I was born,
Where is there a mother like the sacred cow?
With true warmth and deep love,
She cares for us and feeds us milk each and every day!
When all the fine cows
Graze on the wild grass in the forest,
Taking out his bamboo flute,
Muthukkaalai sings his song!
Oh, the cow that listens to my song
Look at the deep bond between our song and the cattle!
The whole village talks about this from house to house!
Thana thanthana thanthana thanthana naanaanaanaa...
Thana thanthana thanthana thanthana thaang thaang thaang thaga thaa...
