Sathyaprakash voices repeated requests for consent with lines like ‘place a garland little by little’. He compares his longing to a beetle seeking nectar, emphasizing natural urgency. The woman remains elusive despite his physical and emotional appeals.
Thoda Thoda Maala Poda VarenI’ve come to put a garland on you, little by little,
Vilaguriyae YeBut you’re pulling away.
Suda Suda Dhegam Vegam NeeyumMy body’s burning with speed,
Kodhikiriyae YeAnd you’re simmering too.
Thoda Thoda Maala Poda VarenI’ve come to put a garland on you, little by little,
Vilaguriyae YeBut you’re pulling away.
Suda Suda Dhegam Vegam NeeyumMy body’s burning with speed,
Kodhikiriyae YeAnd you’re simmering too.
Kannitheevae Chinna PoovaeMy virgin island, my little flower.
Adi Needhaan Sammadham ThaayaenHey, just give me your consent.
Vettiverae Katti ThaenaeMy fragrant ‘vettiver’ root, my sweet honeycomb.
Adi Needhaan Sammadham ThaayaenHey, just give me your consent.

Sadhirattam AaduraAnd playing these games?
Mallukatta Poren NaanaeI’m going to wrestle you,
Udumbu PadiyaWith a ‘monitor lizard’s grip’.
Nalamaagvae ThuniayaagavaeIn health and companionship,
