Kalavathi Lyrics Translation — Sarkaru Vaari Paata | Sid Sriram

Mangalyam Tantunanena, Mama Jeevana Hetuna,
This sacred thread I am tying around your neck is essential for my long life.
Kanthe Badhnami Subhage, Twam Jeeva Sarada Satam,
O Maiden having many auspicious attributes may you live happily for a hundred years.

Vandho Oka Veyo Oka Laksho, Merupulu Meedhiki Dookinaya, Yendhe Nee Maya,
A hundred, or a thousand or a lakh bolts of lightning struck me, what sheer magic!
Mundho Atu Pakko Itu Dhikko, Chilipiga Theegalu Moginaya, Poyindhe Soya,
Strings in front, there and everywhere are resonating in mischief, as you pass this way!

Ittantivanni Alavate Ledhe, Attanti Naki Thadabatu Asalendhe,
Not used to all these ways, Don’t know why I am so disarrayed
Gunde Dhadagundhe, Vidigundhe Jadisindhe, Ninu Jathapadamani Thega Pilichinadhe,
My heart races faster, and yearns to beat in unison with yours as you beckon me.

Come On Come On Kalavathi, Nuvvegathe Nuvve Gathi,
Come on, Come on Kalaavathi You’re my only destiny!
Come On Come On Kalavathi, Nuvvu Lekunte Adho Gathi
Come on, Come on Kalaavathi Without you, I hit the Nadir!

Mangalyam Tantunanena, Mama Jeevana Hetuna,
This sacred thread I am tying around your neck is essential for my long life.
Kanthe Badhnami Subhage, Twam Jeeva Sarada Satam,
O Maiden having many auspicious attributes may you live happily for a hundred years.
Vandho Oka Veyo Oka Laksho, Merupulu Meedhiki Dookinaya, Yendhe Nee Maya,
A hundred, or a thousand or a lakh bolts of lightning struck me, what sheer magic!

Anyayanga Manasuni Kelikave, Annam Manesi Ninne Chusela,
Unjustly, you caused a flutter in my heart, that made me starve and stare at you.
Duramarganga Sogasuni Visirave, Nidhra Manesi Ninne Thalachela,
So wicked, you unleashed your finery on me, that made give up sleep and think of you only.

Ranga Ghoranga Na Kalalani Kadhipave,
Intensely and harshly, you disturbed my dreams.
Donga Andhanga Na Pogaruni Dochave,
And conquered my arrogance, beautifully, you thief.
Chinchi Athikinchi Irikinchi Vadilinchi, Na Bathukuni Chedagodithivi Kadhave,
You tore, pasted, conspired and got rid of me, And turned my life upside down.

Kalla Avi Kalavathi, Kallolamaindhe Na Gathi,
What eyes you have, Kalaavathi? You have cast me in a spell!
Kurula Avi Kalavathi, Kullabodisindhi Chalu Thee
Are those locks of hair, Kalavavathi? They are pricking me without relief.

Come On Come On Kalavathi, Nuvvegathe Nuvve Gathi,
Come on, Come on Kalaavathi You’re my only destiny!
Come On Come On Kalavathi, Nuvvu Lekunte Adho Gathi
Come on, Come on Kalaavathi Without you, I hit the Nadir!

O Maiden having many auspicious attributes may you live happily for a hundred years.

Vandho Oka Veyo Oka Laksho, Merupulu Meedhiki Dookinaya, Yendhe Nee Maya,
A hundred, or a thousand or a lakh lightnings struck me, what sheer magic!
Mundho Atu Pakko Itu Dhikko, Chilipiga Theegalu Moginaya, Poyindhe Soya,
Strings in front, there and everywhere are resonating in mischief, as you pass this way!
