Purushan veettil vaazha pogum ponnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Arasan veettu ponnaaga irundhaalum
Ammaa agandhai kolla koodaadhu ennaalum
Purushan veettil vaazha pogum ponnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Maamiyaarai maamanaarai madhikkanum
Unnai maalai itta kanavanaiyae thudhikkanum
Saama kozhi koovayilae muzhikkanum
Kulichi saanam thelichi kolam poattu
Samayal vaelai thuvakkanum
Purushan veettil vaazha pogum ponnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Kannaal paesum payaga munnae nillaadhae
Nee kaanaadhadhai kandaenunnu sollaadhae
Kannaal paesum payaga munnae nillaadhae
Nee kaanaadhadhai kandaenunnu sollaadhae
Indha annaen sollum amudha vaarthai thallaadhae
Namma appaen paattan paerai keduthu kollaadhae
Purushan veettil vaazha pogum ponnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Purushan uyirai meettu thandhava ponnudhaan
Odum puzhudhai angae nillunu sonnava ponnudhaan
Arasan nadunga needhi sonnava ponnudhaan
Avuga aasthi kanakku sonnaa karppu onnudhaan
Aasthi kanakku sonnaa karppu onnudhaan
Purushan veettil vaazha pogum ponnae
Thangachi kannae sila puthi madhiga
Solluren kaelu munnae
Purushan kooda nee irundhu
Poovum manamum pol magizhndhu
Koora saelayum thaaliyum manjalum
Kunguma pottum nagaiyum nattum
Korainjidaama nerainjikkittu
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Makkala pethu manaya pethu
Makka vayathula paerana pethu
Paeran vayathula pullaya pethu
Noyillama nodi illaam nooru vayasu
Vaazha pora thangachi
Namakku saami thunai irukku thangachi
Namakku saami thunai irukku thangachi
O dear girl going to live in your husband's home,
my precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
My precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
Even if you were the daughter of a king,
dear girl, you must never hold pride in your heart.
O dear girl going to live in your husband's home,
my precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
You must respect your mother-in-law and father-in-law,
and cherish the husband who garlanded you.
You must wake up when the rooster crows at dawn,
bathe, sprinkle the courtyard, draw the threshold patterns,
and begin the cooking for the day.
O dear girl going to live in your husband's home,
my precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
Do not stand before men who flirt with their eyes,
and do not gossip about things you haven't seen.
Do not stand before men who flirt with their eyes,
and do not gossip about things you haven't seen.
Do not brush aside these sweet words your brother shares,
and do not bring shame to our family's good name.
O dear girl going to live in your husband's home,
my precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
The one who won back her husband's life was a woman,
the one who commanded the blowing dust to freeze was a woman,
the one who demanded justice and made the king tremble was a woman,
and if you count their true wealth, it was only their virtue,
yes, their only true wealth was their virtue.
O dear girl going to live in your husband's home,
my precious little sister, listen to some words of advice
that I give you before you leave.
Living happily with your husband,
united in joy like a flower and its fragrance,
with your bridal sari, sacred wedding thali, turmeric,
kumkum dot, and all your shining jewelry,
never fading, always overflowing with abundance,
Aa... aa... aa... aa... aa...
raising children and building a proud home,
seeing grandchildren born to your children,
and great-grandchildren born to your grandchildren,
free from illness and pain for a hundred years,
you will live a blessed life, little sister.
God will be right by our side, little sister,
yes, God will protect you always, little sister.
