Come over here, just come along freely, everyone come on, hey...!
Hey... gentlemen, come along!
Truly, everyone is searching for you!
Come see the street, come see the market street!
For all the goods you take in your hands,
no hard cash is needed! Come, come, come...
This is no ordinary market stall; in this shop,
pots and pans are given away.
Giving rise to wondrous delight, bronze and brass,
and silver vessels will be given to you!

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, you can pour a crisp dosa,

Thom-dhaga tharikidi, beat the thavil drum!
Do you want toy pots and pitchers?
Do you want wide cooking pans?

Giant cauldrons, round vessels, nested pots,
do you want an elephant-sized ladle...?
Giant cauldrons, round vessels, nested pots,

Crafted not with hands, but made by pure gaze!
Look at this golden treasure, and you will see what follows!
In this very shop,
if you give old rags and worn clothes,

if you give old rags and worn clothes,
woven with gold zari thread,
they will give you a gleaming gold shawl!

you will see the wonder later, you will see it later!
Woven without any yarn or thread!
Come along, bridegroom, come along!
Male voice: What is pulling me, man?
Male voice: No sir, it is just calling out to you, hey...!
Look at the magic woven without yarn or thread!
Examine it closely and drape it over you,
woven without any yarn or thread!
Woven seamlessly without warp or yarn,
look at this silk pitambaram (sacred yellow silk), just look at it!
If you pay a king's ransom and wear it as your attire,
even she will respect you splendidly, so grandly, so finely!
Even if stones bow down, unyielding in your word,
O son of the mighty Duryodhana, O noble son!
It is wonderful, I will get it for you for free!
Or else, I will loot this
entire place by force, right away!
O fragrant bridegroom, match for Cupid who bends the bow!
Desire overflows, sir; having love is enough, sir!
No coins or money are needed, oh...!
I place the queen in the hands of the king,
put the garland around her neck!
I place the queen in the hands of the king,
put the garland around her neck!
Hey... how is that?
Male voice: Bravo...!
With mantras and magic herbs,
here, through clever tricks, old women...
With mantras and magic herbs,
here, through clever tricks, old women...
Just like the alluring enchantress Menaka,
they will turn into youthful maidens!
Just like the alluring enchantress Menaka,
they will turn into youthful maidens!
Comb your hair and style your curls, Bangaru!
Apply kohl like a fine painting, Chengalam!
Comb your hair and style your curls, Bangaru!
Apply kohl like a fine painting, Chengalam!
Paint your lips brightly red,
paint your lips afresh with bright red!
Put on your ear studs along with the dangling earrings!
Wear the ear studs with dangling jimmikis in your ears!
Comb your hair and style your curls, Bangaru!
Apply kohl like a fine painting, Chengalam!
Why are you staring so intently, sir?
I ask, what do you really want?
Why are you staring so intently, sir?
I ask, what do you really want?
Aha, I will turn you into a dashing youth too,
and match you with this virtuous beauty!
I will turn you into a dashing youth too,
and match you with this virtuous beauty!
Once you pluck off that beard,
the mustache will turn jet black once dyed...!

Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This song from the 1948 epic drama 'Abhimanyu' serves as a lively, theatrical marketplace street-vendor song. The characters invite people from all walks of life—brothers, elders, and young grooms—to witness magical, wondrous goods sold without requiring actual money. The vendor boasts fantastical items such as vessels that cook without stoves, silk garments woven without thread, and magical spells or medicines capable of turning old women into beautiful celestial maidens like Menaka.
