Thenmerku Paruvakaatru
Thenipakkam Veesum Pothu Saaral Inbachaaral
When the southwest monsoon breeze blows
In *Theni (a place) side,
A drizzle, a pleasant drizzle
Themmaangu Paadikondu Silusiluvendru
Sindhudhamma Thooral Muthu Thooral
Playing a melodious tune
It’s pouring, pouring as pearls
Venkaatu Pakkakalli Sattendru Mottuvida
Senkaatu Sillichedi Chillendru Pooveduka (F)

Leafless plants of the forest blossom suddenly
