The song sung in the night,
The more I hear it, the more longing grows.
Female: The damp breeze from the riverbank,
Brushing against me, has sparked my passion.
Serve me rice under the moonlight,
My precious golden chariot!
Female: Come and join me,
I am sweet juice dripping from fresh fruit!
Hey... the song sung in the night,
The more I hear it, the more longing grows.
Female: The damp breeze from the riverbank,
Brushing against me, has sparked my passion.
On the auspicious day when Lord Kallazhagar
Steps into the Vaigai river,
People from all the surrounding villages
Pack their food and gather around.
Just as Meenakshi became the match for Lord Chokkanathar,
Because they found their perfect partners,
All the young couples
Come here in the month of Chithirai (April–May).
I fell in love only with you;
Why else did I grow this moustache?
Female: Just so you would become my husband,
I offered prayers in my past life.
Only with you do I belong,
Only with me do you belong.
Spread your saree pallu (saree end)... hey...
The damp breeze from the riverbank,
Brushing against me, has sparked my passion.
Male: The song sung in the night,
The more I hear it, the more longing grows.
Come and join me,
I am sweet juice dripping from fresh fruit!
Male: Ah... serve me rice under the moonlight,
My precious golden chariot!
Destiny was written for everyone,
And it tied the two of us together.
My wife is like a decorative floral garland,
While I am just an ordinary man.
Like clouds covering the bright moon,
She keeps me safe and shielded.
If others cast an evil eye on me,
She worries and grows restless.
To the town, she is like a queen,
But to me, she is like a goddess.
Truly speaking, like me,
There is no man as blessed as I am.
A wife who cares for me like a mother,
No one can ever compare to her.
It is all my good fortune...
The song sung in the night,
The more I hear it, the more longing grows.
The damp breeze from the riverbank,
Brushing against me, has sparked my passion.
Serve me rice under the moonlight,
My precious golden chariot!
Come and join me,
I am sweet juice dripping from fresh fruit!
Hey... the song sung in the night,
The more I hear it, the more longing grows.
The damp breeze from the riverbank,
Brushing against me, has sparked my passion.
