Kuru Kuru Machan KannilIn the sharp, observant eyes of the young man,
Puriya Acham Achamthere is an incomprehensible shyness.
Thuru Thuru Ponnu OnnuAn energetic young girl,
Pudhusa Thikki Nikkumstands there, hesitating like never before.
Munna Pinna Ninnu NinnuPacing back and forth,
Moochu Vidum Akkam Pakkamshe breathes heavily while looking around.
Enna Enna Sollum MinnuWondering what her flashing thoughts will say,
Ennam Oru Pakkam Pakkamher mind is completely occupied on one side.
Sooriyanai Kondu Vandhu Kattunga ArathiBring the sun itself and perform the ‘Aarti’ ritual.
Aa Chandhiranai Kootti Vandhu Vasalil VilakkethiBring the moon along and light the lamps at our doorstep.
Natchathiram Athanaiyum Thoranangala MadhiTurn all the stars into festive garlands,
Kattungama Poopadainja Enga Kula Rasathiand tie them up for our family’s princess, who has come of age.
