Chengamalam from Sokkikulam village,
Came to roam around and see the city, they say!
Wearing a skirt down below, smelling like sweet flowers up top,
Wearing a skirt down below, smelling like sweet flowers up top,
And in the middle, she covered herself with a half-sari!

And in the middle, she covered herself with a half-sari!
The young girl was waiting for a bus,
A fellow came and stood beside her, hoping for a kiss!
The young girl was waiting for a bus,
A fellow came and stood beside her, hoping for a kiss!
He grinned and checked her out, that cheeky rogue,
So she gave him two sharp slaps right on the nape of his neck!
And she understood what city folks are really like, they say!

She finished buying combs, soaps, and all her goods,
And with those bags in hand, she enjoyed an afternoon movie show!
She finished buying combs, soaps, and all her goods,
And with those bags in hand, she enjoyed an afternoon movie show!
The guy sitting beside her slowly reached for her purse,
And secretly slipped his hand right into that bag!
And she understood what city folks are really like, they say!

We have seen it all, yes, we have seen city life!
Affection blossoms in school when we study together!
We have seen it all, yes, we have seen city life!
Affection blossoms in school when we study together!
Sing joyful songs as long as you live, my friends!
Who will come along with you once you are laid on the funeral bier?
This deep truth becomes clear once you smear sacred ash on your forehead!
