Sendhoora paandikkoru sodi kili
Sodi kili kooda
Sola karudhu pola thola thottu
Thola thottu aada
Sendhoora paandikkoru sodi kili
Sodi kili kooda
Sola karudhu pola thola thottu
Thola thottu aada
Kaadhal paattedukkum vayasu idhu
Kaettu kiru kirukkum manasu idhu
Poruthiru maanae pasumara thaenae
Nenachadhu neravaerum
Naala sendhoora paandikkoru sodi kili

For Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing.
For Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing.
This is the age to sing a song of love,
and this is the heart that spins upon hearing it.
Wait patiently, my deer, my sweet wild honey,
all that you wished for will come true.
Tomorrow, for Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing.
Tucked into the hair atop my head,
the scent of sweet marjoram,
whispering your name,
wafts across the whole land.
Like words carved into stone,
this love is a poem.
In this birth and every birth to come,
this bond of love will carry on.
I need no food or drinking water, my darling,
just seeing you is enough.
My hunger is soothed all on its own,
just hearing your sweet words of love.
To stay separated from you,
to remain all on my own,
oh dear me, oh my goodness,
my heart would never agree!
Ahaha hahha!
For Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
Female: Swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing... ah...
Born just to be united with you,
this girl melts with longing.
To the southern breeze,
she sends messages every single day.
When the goddess statue from the temple awakens
and walks swaying with grace,
my heart within flutters in restlessness,
and how could sleep ever come?
As you keep touching me,
it has become a sweet fever.
And as for me,
it has been so long since I teased you!
If I give you a little room,
if I show you the green signal,
you will show off all your clever tricks right now!
Hahaha hahaha!
For Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
Male: Thantha nanna thananna,
Female: Swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing.
Male: Thantha nanna thananna,
To sing a song of love,
this is the age,
and this is the heart that spins upon hearing it.
Wait patiently, my deer, my sweet wild honey,
all that you wished for will come true.
Tomorrow, for Sendhoorapandi, a sweetheart parrot,
to join him as a pair,
Male: Swaying like ears of corn, touching his shoulder,
touching his shoulder and dancing.
