Oh, like dressing up a butterfly
in fine silk cloth,
who wrapped a saree
around a tiny sparrow?
Like making a statue
out of sugar candy,
who placed you high out of reach
and made my mouth water?
Even after a banana leaf is laid out
and a grand feast is served,
I am lying here, not knowing how to satisfy my hunger.
Looking at a block of jaggery
and not knowing how to take a bite,
I am trembling with restlessness!
Come here, my slender girl!
Give me the treasures you have grown!
If you give me one of your two cheeks,
I will count out millions in return!
Hey, Vanni Tamil man, come to me!
Give me what is meant for you!
If you give me one fresh kiss,
I will blaze up like fire!
When you tuck the edge of your saree
into your waist,
my whole heart inside
is stirred with wild longing, girl!
When you fold up your veshti (traditional wrap)
and your calf is revealed,
I lock my door to study,
but my heart aches with longing, oh man!
Hiding your love within
and putting on an act on the outside,
you girl wearing a disguise,
why are you just stalling with empty words?
Oh skilled hunter who catches hares
in the cashew forest,
there are two hares right here—
won't you take notice of them?
Come here, my slender girl!
Give me the treasures you have grown!
If you give me one of your two cheeks,
I will count out millions in return!
I have no rubies,
nor any gems or diamonds.
Other than my youthful beauty,
I have no offering to bring.
Your body is radiant like a ruby, girl,
and your teeth are like precious pearls!
The salty honey welling up
beneath your blouse is more than enough for me!
Oh handsome man with a broad chest,
handsome man with strong shoulders,
you make four hundred demands,
so what should I do for you?
To protect a great warrior's land
and protect a woman of honour,
five or six tiger cubs
are needed urgently, girl!
Hey, Vanni Tamil man, come to me!
Give me what is meant for you!
Oh, if you give me one fresh kiss,
I will blaze up like fire!
