The parrot that came to the market
Is speaking in hints and gestures!
The parrot that came to the market
Is speaking in hints and gestures!
Muthamma, oh Muthamma...
Are you shy to come close?
Muthamma, oh Muthamma...
Are you shy to come close?
Oh deer of Courtallam,
Oh sweet honey of blooming flowers!
Oh deer of Courtallam,
Oh sweet honey of blooming flowers!
The parrot that came to the market
Is speaking in hints and gestures!
The parrot that came to the market
Is speaking in hints and gestures!
Sights I had never seen before,
I saw them in your beauty!
Flower-like lovely patterns,
You drew them with your eyes!
In Manamadurai,
Buying jasmine flowers,
You captivated me with your kohl-lined eyes,
Oh my skillful sweetheart!
The lotus has bloomed,
The tomato has ripened,
But my precious, your heart
Has not yet softened with love!
Female: Claim me as your own right now,
And take me into your arms, my sweetheart!
Why is my sweetheart who came to the market
Talking only in hints and gestures?
Why is my sweetheart who came to the market
Talking only in hints and gestures?
Shall I say it, shall I say it,
Shall I tell you something?
Shall I say it, shall I say it,
Shall I tell you something?
Talk about the wedding,
And you must tie the sacred knot (thali)!
Talk about the wedding,
And you must tie the sacred knot (thali)!
Why is my sweetheart who came to the market
Talking only in hints and gestures?
Why is my sweetheart who came to the market
Talking only in hints and gestures?
Ulululululu...
Ulululululu...
Singing that Pongal has arrived, has arrived,
Clap your hands and dance the festive Kummi!
So that joy overflows everywhere,
Come here, all you women!
Holding auspicious kumkum in your hands,
Come along to sing the folk song (ammanai)!
Come along to sing the folk song (ammanai)!
Sing out with the rhythm of thandhana thom...
Ulululululu...
...
Ever since the day I came of age,
You were the only one on my mind!
Wasting away as thin as a thread,
I suffered daily in lovesickness!
In your hair adorned with flowers,
You tied up my heart!
In that knot you tied,
My soul aches with longing every day!
There is sweet nectar in the flower,
And the golden beetle is watching it!
Why is there any more delay,
Does my sweetheart agree?
To make you mine right now,
Come a little closer to me, my dear!
The parrot that came to the market
Is speaking in hints and gestures!
Female: Why is my sweetheart who came to the market
Talking only in hints and gestures?
Male: Muthamma, oh Muthamma...
Are you shy to come close?
Female: Shall I say it, shall I say it,
Shall I tell you something?
Talk about the wedding,
And you must tie the sacred knot (thali)!
Male: Hey hoy, oh deer of Courtallam,
Oh sweet honey of blooming flowers!
