Vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Adi vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Atha petha azhagha paathu
Asandhu ponendi hei
Avundha vaetti katta kooda
Marandhu ponendi hei
Vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Adi vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Oodhiyae paakkaadha naadhaswaram
Kolaiyae paakkaadha peedhaambaram
Veesiyae paakkaadha ven saamaram
Othaiyil ninnaalae ennaa sugam
Kannaalam kattaama kacheri vekkaama
Sokkuren nikkuren chinna pulla
Adi sonnaalae naan vaaren poomaala naan thaaren
Sithira panguni maasathula
Oodudhadi naalu thaan thaedudhadi aalu thaan
Vaadudhadi nenju thaan vanji oru pinju thaan
Aei… aalaagi naalaachu
Vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Kitta vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Tottodoi tottodoi doi tottodoi tottodoi doi
Tottodoi doi doi tottodoi doi doi
Doi doi doi doi doi
Kodaiyil poovodu nippaenadi
Kondaiyil naan thaanae vappenadi
Saadaiyil ellaamae paatthukkuren
Enna nee sonnaalum yaethukkuren
Unnaala naan vaada ulloora poraada
Innamum thallinaa thaangaadhadi
Adi sallaabam illaama sandhosham kaanaama
Kannu thaan eppavum thoongaadhadi
Raathirikku raathiri naanum oru maadhiri
Neela nilaa kaayudhu nenjila thaan paayudhu
Aei… paazhthaadhae raasaathi
Vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Adi vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Atha petha azhaga paathu
Asandhu ponendi hei
Avundha vaetti katta kooda
Marandhu ponendi hei
Vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Kitta vaadi en rukkumani
Raathiri pathu mani
Come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Hey, come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Looking at the beauty born to my aunt
I was completely swept off my feet, hey!
Even to tie back my slipping veshti
I completely forgot, hey!
Come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Hey, come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Like a nadaswaram (pipe instrument) never yet played
Like untouched golden silk never yet worn
Like a white whisk fan never yet waved
What joy is there in just standing all alone?
Without getting married, without a wedding celebration
I stand here swooning, just a young girl
Hey, just say the word and I'll come, bringing a garland of flowers
In the wedding months of Chithirai and Panguni
The days keep slipping by, and someone longs for you
My heart is withering, though this girl is still tender and young
Hey... you grew into a woman long ago!
Come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Come closer, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Thottodaai thottodaai daai thottodaai thottodaai daai
Thottodaai daai daai thottodaai daai daai
Daai daai daai daai daai
In the summer, I'll stand waiting with flowers
And I am the one who will tuck them into your hair!
I understand everything from your subtle glances
Whatever you say, I will gladly accept
While I pine for you and struggle deep inside
If you put me off any longer, I can't bear it!
Hey, without some playful romance, without any happiness
My eyes can never get any sleep at all
Night after night, I feel restless and unsettled
The blue moonlight shines down and pierces my heart
Hey... don't let it all go to waste, my princess!
Come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Hey, come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Looking at the beauty born to my aunt
I was completely swept off my feet, hey!
Even to tie back my slipping veshti
I completely forgot, hey!
Come to me, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
Come closer, my Rukkumani
It's ten o'clock at night!
