Thadari na naari
Thadari aa na na na naChinnamma adi kunji pennamma
Thiruvalli kavil gajaveeranmar ayiram
Ukkumma padapandi thalam
Kudamattam kanan arayalinmel ambiliChinnamma adi kunji pennamma
Thiruvalli kavil gajaveeranmar ayiram
Ukkumma padapandi thalam
Kudamattam kanan arayalinmel ambiliMy sweet little one there are a thousand elephants at the temple today
Oh dear one! even the moon came to see the festival todayVayalelayil kili koottamayi kathironnuvan vannu poi
Puzha meenukal theli neerilai kalicholli neengunnuvo
Pazhayakalangal engo padi marayuvathini varumo
Like a flock of birds in the paddy fields
They came as if to feed on grains they moved merrily
Will all the good times of the past ever come backChinnamma adi kunji pennamma
Thiruvalli kavil gajaveeranmar ayiram
Ukkumma padapandi thalam
Kudamattam kanan arayalinmel ambiliNanduni meettum kavil kali komaramurayana thalam
Maddalamelam pathiganam kottikerumbol
Anthi vilakku koluthanai njanum porumbolIn the wind that whistles in our ears the festive tunes can be heard
When the drum beats reach their peak
When I come to light the evening lampsAninirayai akashavum naruthirikal neetunnvo
Harichandanam chudu nettiyil maniveena neelambari
Pazhayakalangal engo padi marayuvathini varumo
The skies accompany me with the crimson clouds of the sunset
The sandalwood spot on my forehead is as soothing as a melody
Will all the good times of the past ever come backChinnamma adi kunji pennamma
Thiruvalli kavil gajaveeranmar ayiram
Ukkumma padapandi thalam
