Chorus :Sangath tamil unthan pugazh padum
O wild parrot...
O wild parrot, parrot of the flower garden...
In the month of Margazhi, during the early winter chill,
O gentle breeze carrying the scent of flowers!
When it brushes against the bamboo,
a song sweet as honey is heard.
In the morning, at early dawn,
in the evening, in the garden of blooms,
so tenderly, so softly,
he held me close in his arms!
O wild parrot, parrot of the flower garden...
O wild parrot, parrot of the flower garden...
Looking at you, my little Kannan,
the peacock spreads its feathers and dances.
As for me, my young heart
longs for you day after day.
Jum-jum ja-jum jum
Oh... making a bed upon the grass,
the blanket of mist falls asleep.
Resting on the prince's shoulder,
a colourful rose leans in.
By the lake...
Chorus: Oh... oh...
Female: Along the banks of the lake,
at the hour when storks cuddle together,
so tenderly, so softly,
he held me close in his arms!
Swaying in the cool north wind, singing through glances,
a fragrant bouquet of flowers!
Female: Oh... ooh...
Chorus: It begins now,
a melody of joy, may it live on for many long years!
O wild parrot...
Chorus: The youthful loving heart will live on forever!
Female: O wild parrot...
Chorus: Sangam (ancient Tamil classical) poetry will sing your praise!
...
Female: ...
Traveling from land to land,
O raincloud filled with water!
Over the teakwood forest,
it is time for the drizzle to fall...
Jum-jum ja-jum jum
Oh... to the song of the silvery drizzle,
this body aches with longing.
This young girl's whole body
is filled with passion for you.
The rippling wave...
Chorus: Oh... ooh...
Female: As the rippling waves surge forward,
and the river reeds bow their heads,
so tenderly, so softly,
he held me close in his arms!
My love, all your great beauty
is like a painting from Ajanta!
Every word spoken from your lips here
is like an epic poem by Ilango!
Female: Oh... ooh...
O wild parrot...
Chorus: The youthful loving heart will live on forever!
Female: O wild parrot...
Chorus: Sangam (ancient Tamil classical) poetry will sing your praise!
