Along West Masi Street,
The sound of festive drums is heard, girl!
Like fish-eyed Goddess Meenakshi's
Precious necklace of pearls,
Wearing it upon your body,
Searching for your matching pair came
Muthamma, Muthamma, Muthamma!
Oh, Muthamma, Muthamma, Muthamma!
Tham tham tham tham
Thamtham thamtham tham
Tham tham tham tham
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
Awakening sweet desire,
A flower of the winter month,
Quenching all thirst,
A flower draped in a half-saree!
A bud, just a bud!
Hoy, the young bud bounces with joy!
A bird, just a little bird!
Hoy, she blushes shyly at a touch!
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
The sweet songbird of the punnai grove
Whispered your name right here!
The chilly breeze is blowing, my man,
Cast your sidelong glance at me!
Loneliness blocks my way,
Tapping a beat and laughing, girl!
A deep longing embraces me,
And urges me to hold you close, girl!
To the deity I prayed to,
I am fulfilling my sacred vow!
Come, my precious singing bird!
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
Awakening sweet desire,
A flower of the winter month,
Quenching all thirst,
A flower draped in a half-saree!
A bud, just a bud!
Hoy, the young bud bounces with joy!
A bird, just a little bird!
Hoy, she blushes shyly at a touch!
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
Nananaana naanaa nanana
Nananaana naanaa naanaa
Nananaana naanaa nanana
Nananaana naanaa naanaa ah…
With just a single glance,
You took deep root inside me, young girl!
There is no one to separate us,
No distance or town stands between us!
We have grown close, the fear is gone,
There is nothing left unsaid!
A sweet breeze blew inside the heart,
And united us at the perfect time!
Shall I tie the wedding pearls around your neck?
Shall I hold you tight and stay close?
Come, my precious singing bird!
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
Awakening sweet desire,
A flower of the winter month,
Quenching all thirst,
A flower draped in a half-saree!
A bud, just a bud!
Male: Hey, the young bud bounces with joy!
Female: A bird, just a little bird!
Male: Hoy, she blushes shyly at a touch!
Has a banyan flower
Ever seen a fig flower?
Has a cardamom flower
Ever joined with a berry flower?
