The great celebration of the marriage of Sita, The great celebration of the marriage of Rama He who is praised by Hanuman, the son of wind, He who has a very holy story, He whose eyes are the Sun and the moon, He who has a very pretty body. He who is sung in prayers by Lord Shiva himself, He who removes the problems of domestic life He who understands the human beings, And is sung by sage Thyagaraja.

When sorrow strikes , won’t you take the harp, And add sweetness to my life-Won’t you, Add sweetness to me –Won’t you , Remove the pain in my heart bereft of love , By singing in Tamil, Darling, Won’t you remove the pain. In this world surrounded by meddling and simplicity, For adding feelings to this life –for, Adding feelings to my life –won’t you, Dance the steps of ancient Tamil dance-darling Won’t you dance

I am not myself today as I miss you How can a root be without a seed? Even the skies that I see everyday are not true Even the dreams which are supposed to be soothing, are not that There is no me without you This poor girl's heart loses its grip missing you How can there be a root without a seed? How will I blush when he gives me that look? I see myself in the mirror blushing For the day that we become one, I have already rehearsed around a hundred scripts in my mind and I am waiting eagerly. Suddenly as a surprise one day He comes from behind, spins me around like a top, and with that legendary mouth of his that ate the world, locked his lips against mine! Poor girl, for a moment there, I forgot that there exists a thing called the earth! Like the dress the body wears, will you wear me around you from now Krishna? From now, you will be the Krishna who won't let my eyes know sleep.. If this does not happen, if I don't get to see you, till my life gets over, I will not fret over it needlessly Instead I will just make you my breath and live

Piyu bole piya bole Hmm hmm hmm jaanu na Jiya dole haule haule Kyun yeh dole jaanu na Dil ki joh baatein hai Baatein joh dil ki hai Dil hi mein rakhna piya Lab toh na kholun main Kholun na lab toh par Aankhon se sab keh diya Ek nadi se maine poocha ithlake chal di kahan Door tere pi ka ghar hai balkhake chal di kahan Thoda woh ghabrayi, thoda sa sharmayi Uchli yahan se wahan Sagar se milne ka uska toh sapna tha Meri hi tarah piya Maine poocha ek ghata se itrake chal di kahan Pyaasi bari zameen hai barso bhi tarsaao na Thoda woh gurrayi, thoda sa tharrayi Garji yahan phir wahan Preet lutati phir cham cham cham barsi woh Teri hi tarah piya Piyu bole piya bole La la la jaanu na

My beloved is saying something I don't know what he's saying My heart is swaying slowly I don't know why it's swaying The conversations of the heart The conversations of the heart Beloved, keep them in your heart I won't open my lips I won't open my lips I've said everything through my eyes I asked a river, where are you flowing in style Your beloved lives far, nimbly where are you going It was slightly worried and slightly shy It jumped from here to there The dream that it had of meeting the ocean Was just like my dream I asked a cloud, where are you going in style Please pour as the earth is thirsty, don't make it yearn more It growled a little and thundered a little Then it poured everywhere It kept raining the shower of love Just like you, beloved My beloved is saying something I don't know what he's saying
