Dholi, dholi, hey!
Dholi dholi, dholi dholi, hey dholi dholi!
Like a peacock with spreading feathers,
learning the graceful walk of a swan,
through my eyes,
how did you slip into my heart?
Like singing songbirds,
gathering colorful words,
why are you whispering
new poems into my ears?
By the riverbank as dusk settles in,
we need to talk a little,
beside the flowering Punnai tree.
Ooh... oooh...
The secret message whispered in my ear calling me here—
now that I've arrived,
won't you share the rest without anyone seeing?
In the flower garden, in the evening,
our sweet games of love begin!
Female: Hey, let them begin,
these moments of pure joy!
Without ever parting until the morning light,
shall we read our story of love?
The new bride and groom...
Chorus: Lift it up, friends, lift the palanquin, dholi dholi!
Female: In this Vaigai river,
Chorus: it is a celebration, full of fun and joy!
The pretty girl is dancing with joy, hey!
Female: The groom's eyes are completely enchanted!
Male: They are hinting at a sweet secret, hey!
Chorus: Reach out and hold her hands tight!
In the flowing stream,
while you take your bath,
shall I gently rub
fresh turmeric on your face?
While you rub it on me,
and scoop water to pour over me,
upon your chest,
may I lean like a water lily vine?
My lovely deer,
why ask questions here?
Inside my heart,
aren't you the goddess who lives?
Ooh oh oh...
That naughty Love God struck me with his bow!
To bring down his pride,
come running and leaping to me!
Inside this chrysanthemum flower,
there is sweet nectar.
Female: The honey that this flower spills
is always yours to keep!
Once our bed is made, I will scoop and give you all my love,
I will tease you and offer it with affection, hey!
The new bride and groom...
Chorus: Lift it up, friends, lift the palanquin, dholi dholi!
Female: In this Vaigai river,
Chorus: it is a celebration, full of fun and joy!
Hey, the pretty girl is dancing with joy!
Female: The groom's eyes are completely enchanted!
Male: They are hinting at a sweet secret, hey!
Chorus: Reach out and hold her hands tight!
