As a wife, like the goddess of prosperity,
my love, who stepped into my home,
As a wonderful partner, wearing the sacred wedding thread (thirumangalyam),
my sweetest love, who came to me!
Can my heart ever forget that blessed day?
Even thinking of it today sweetens my soul.
Can such a gift ever be found again in a lifetime?
As a wife, like the goddess of prosperity,
my love, who stepped into my home,
As a wonderful partner, wearing the sacred wedding thread (thirumangalyam),
my sweetest love, who came to me!
Like a wonderful book,
I took you and read you.
Reading you over and over again,
I never grew tired; I will cherish and praise you.
Every single second I spend with you,
I float in pure happiness.
To be written down in history,
I live in a golden age.
Every day of my life becomes a golden day,
my love, as long as you are by my side.
As a wife, like the goddess of prosperity,
my love, who stepped into my home,
As a wonderful partner, wearing the sacred wedding thread (thirumangalyam),
my sweetest love, who came to me!
The miracle called time
brought us together with its compassionate hands.
On the string called love,
it strung us together like a garland of gems.
Back then, I carried you deep in my heart;
what could ever compare to that?
I will carry your life within my own body,
and I will offer my thanks to God.
Every day of my life becomes a golden day,
my love, as long as you are by my side.
As a wife, like the goddess of prosperity,
my love, who stepped into my home,
Female: Can my heart ever forget that blessed day?
Even thinking of it today sweetens my soul.
Can such a gift ever be found again in a lifetime?
As a wife, like the goddess of prosperity,
my love, who stepped into my home.
