Ther Thiruvizha Song Lyrics – Lal Salaam

Sandhana maanikku thaan
Sadudhiyil oru kolava
Sadudhiyil oru kolava

#Chime in ecstatic choruses
In praise of our Goddess divine
Hurry, let’s do it right away#

Namma mangalama vaazha
Podungamma kolava
Podungamma kolava

#Let’s cheer joyfully
For our lives to prosper
Together c’mon#

Namma yeri kolam neranjida
Podungamma kolava
Podungamma kolava

#Sing out loud and clear
For our land to flourish
C’mon, don’t shy away#

Oh namma panjam theera
Podungamma kolava
Podungamma kolava

#Let our festive songs reach the heavens
For our poverty to die
Let’s hear it#

Hey odi kalacha sanam
Thedi kalacha sanam
Thanna marandhu vandhu aadi elappara

#Crowds bent from toil
Weary souls with endless searching
Celebrate with glee, letting their spirit soar#

Ther thiruvizha, ther-thiruvizha
Ther thiruvizha, ther-thiruvizha
Oh namma ther thiruvizha, namma ther thiruvizha
Namma ther thiruvizha, namma ther thiruvizha

#Our vibrant chariot fest, our beloved chariot fest
Our joyous chariot fest, our colorful chariot fest

Thaniyagi odappakkam
Thoongi vazhinja maram
Kilaiyoram sondham sera pookkuthe
Pookkuthe pookkuthe ohoho pookkuthe pookkuthe

#The slumber tree by the riverside
Now blooms with flowers
As it’s branches see the light
Flowers begin to blossom, blossoms unfurl gradually#

Hey maattukkum seer undu
Poonaikkum meen thundu

#Adorned and dolled up the cows are set
And the cat relishes the fish#

Vaguppukku viduppu vittom
Varumaikkum viduppu vittom
Maththalamum pichchikittu
Moththa sanam kottamida

#We bid farewell to classes
And wave goodbye to our poverty
As the music echoes louder
The crowd dance in joyous celebration#

Thannaane thanannanna

Hey thannaane thanannanna

#Our vibrant chariot fest

#Manure from the cow stable
Giddy up and clean the goat barn
Manure from the cow stable
Giddy up and clean the goat barn#

Katta eru perukki

Kadala siru payiru kaaramani payiru

#Tidying up our spaces neat and fine
Setting up logs for the campfire
Offering chickpeas and black-eyed peas#

Ezhuvagai mani payiru
Molapotta moona naalu

#Peas of every kind
And seven pulses
All sprouted and presented
For our beloved Goddess#

Peyatho muthu mazhai
Peyatho muthu mazhai
Peyatho-muthu mazhai

#Shall the beloved rain pour down?
Won’t the beloved rain pour down?
Won’t you bless us with a rain shower
Our beloved Goddess Muthumaari?#
