Arpudha Sirpiyadi, Ponnamma

Lyrics & Meaning:

Arputha sirpiyadi   ponnamma, ambala vananadi, 

Oru karpanaikke yettatha seelanadi, shivakmi  makizhndhidum lolanadi.

Mudiyinil oar gangai   ponnnamma, vadivinil oar mangai endrum,

Mudivillaa  ezhil  vannamadi, avar mukkannum muthamizh chinnamadi.

Tripuram yerithavan,  ponnamma,  nirai miga padaithavan,

Iru karamadi maan mazhu yendhiyavan, kodum ganamgalodu natam aadubavan.

Porpadam thooki nindraan, ponnamma, chor porul naan endraan, 

Thillai chir sabhayil aadum vahan, aahi then chenthamizh potrum vivekanadi

Ullam pugundhu vittan, ponnamma, unmai pagarndhu vittan,

Andha kalvanidam kadal kondenadi, dhinam kattu vazhi parthu nindrenadi.

Oh golden girl, he is a  wonderful dancer  whose stage  is the  temple of sky,

His character is beyond imagination and

He is the one who by his sports makes Shivakami  joyous.

Oh golden girl, he has the Ganges on his head and forever a girl in his body,

He is infinitely pretty, and his three eyes are symbols of three tamils

Oh golden girl , he is the one who burnt tripuram, he is the one who created great ones with great morals,

He holds the deer and axe in his hands and he dances along with fearsome attendants.

Oh golden girl, he stood lifting his golden feet and said that he is the meaning of words,

He is the one who dances in the divine hall of Chidambaram,

And is the wise one who is praised by   the purely pretty Tamil.

Oh golden girl, he has entered my mind  and he has shared the truth

And I have fallen in love  with that charming thief  and daily am watching the forest path for him.
