I stand bound by my oath that liquor is forbidden!
The finest stock at Pechumuthu's shop calls out my name,
Sending its aroma as a messenger, calling me to come, come!

Relying on the net,
O poor people whose fires burn dry leaves,
There will be no defeat in life from now on!

Sing his praises and cheer for him!
Good times will dawn for everyone!
