Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
They ruled over the southern lands,
a proud clan of kings, hoy!
Belonging to the Mukkulathor clan,
he is a true son of Thevar, hoy!
Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
How do I describe the richness of this soil?
Chorus: Ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong do...
Male: Others will look on with envy!
Chorus: Ding dong, ding dong,

How do I describe the richness of this soil?
Others will look on with envy.
That legendary story is one
the younger generation must hear!
Even above our own lives,
honor and respect come first.
If we lose our honor,
we do not know how to live.
Our elders taught us this,
and they always lived by their word.
In character and in spirit,
they were as noble and pure as deer.
Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
They ruled over the southern lands,
a proud clan of kings, hoy!
Belonging to the Mukkulathor clan,
he is a true son of Thevar, hoy!
Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
All our ancient forefathers...
Chorus: Ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong do...
Male: To trace who they all were,
Chorus: Ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong do...
All our ancient forefathers—
to trace who they all were,
and record their names in history,
they are not just one, two, or three!
A wedding in the Mukkulathor clan
is like a carpet adorned with pearls!
Every community offers its blessings,
and our hearts swell with triumphant joy!
What a handsome, perfectly matched pair,
like a grand carriage atop an elephant!
Can our customs and traditions be counted?
They are endless, vast like the sea!
Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
They ruled over the southern lands,
a proud clan of kings, hoy!
Belonging to the Mukkulathor clan,
he is a true son of Thevar, hoy!
Sing praises, my precious girl!
Praise the soil beneath the Thevar's feet!
