Shall I tell the place I lived,

And that place  is a place  ,

Known to you also.

Uravooril mithanthirunthen,

Karuvooril kudi pugundhen,

Mannoril vizhundu  vitten.

I floated in the relationship place ,

I  entered   the place of pregnancy ,

And at alst fell on the place  of mud.

Kayyoril valarnthirunthen,

Kalooril nadanthu vandhen,

And started growing up in the hand place,

And started walking on the leg place  ,

And have arrived in the youth place.

Vizhiyooril  kalandhu konden,

Paloorum paruvamennum ,

I got mixed to place of her eye,

And reached  the age  of teens ,

I then started living in the town.

Kattooril vittu vital,

Kanniyoor marantha udan ,

Kadalooril vizhundu vitten.

And left me in this forest place ,

When I forgot that maid place

And fell in the place of love.

Parithavikka  vittu vittu  ,

Metturil antha mangai ,

Meleri nindru kondal.

For undergoing suffering  ,

That lady started living   in the rich place,

And started standing on the top

7.Keezhooril vaazhvadarkkum ,

Kili mozhital illayada,

Melooru povatharkkum  ,

Velai varavillayada.

There is no lady who talks like a parrot ,

And also the time has not come  ,

For me to go to the   top place.
