Anjanathi AnjanathiMy beautiful girl, my beautiful girl,
Endha Ooru Manjanathiwhich town are you from, my lovely one?
Vanthale VanthutaleShe’s come, she’s finally arrived,
Kannu Munnaleright here, before my very eyes.
Konnale KonnuttaleShe’s stunned me, she’s absolutely slain me,
Kolli Kannalewith those piercing, ‘killer eyes’.

Allurale Thulluraleshe captures my heart and leaps with joy.

Thanjavooru Manjanathimy lovely girl from Thanjavur.
Sonnane SollitaneHe’s said it, he’s finally told me,
Sozhi Kannalewith those ‘shell-like’ eyes.
Ninnane NinnuttaneHe stood there, he’s just standing there,
Nethi Munnaleright in front of my face.
