O thavil drummers!
O Tamil folk!
O my villagers, a king worthy of the moon has arrived!
He has arrived...
A king worthy of the moon has arrived!
Hey hey hey
Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Hey, the earth is shaking!
The sky is showering down!
The hearts of the people
Are leaping high with joy—what a roar!
All: A roar, hey, a roar!
Hey, the whole village and all relations
Gather together as one!
Dancing with joyful celebration,
Stirring up excitement!
All: A sound, a brand-new sound!
Banana trees line the whole street,
Male: Strung with garlands like a rainbow!
Male: The clouds roll up to burst like firecrackers,
All: Making people touch their noses in utter wonder!
Giving everything the heart desires,
Male: That is truly our generous nature!
Male: Coming to witness this wedding beauty,
All: Even our gods will present wedding gifts (moi)!

Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Like a lamp with a hundred flames,
Glowing full and bright,
All: He claimed me in a wedding silk saree!
Like tender coconut palm shoots,
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Female: He folded and tucked me in,
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Female: And braided us together tight like twisted straw rope!
She pierces me with her eyes and stirs my heart inside,
Trapping me inside a cage of love... ho ho oooo
Female: Wandering around like a feather in the breeze,
Ho ho oooo, oh my, right into your eyes
He slips in, melts with love, and loses himself!
Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Hoo oo oooo... hoo oo oo oo
Hey, the earth is shaking!
The sky is showering down!
The hearts of the people
Are leaping high with joy—what a roar!

Dancing with joyful celebration,
Stirring up excitement!
