Pongal-How it is celebrated in village – a song
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
Vellayellam adithu vaithu
.
Veetai nangu mezhugi vaithu ,
Vidiyum pothe kulitu vittu,
Vilakku ondrai yeththi vaithu ,
Kolamitta paanayathil,
Kothu manjal katti vaithu ,
Andha panai thanai thookki,
Aduppil vaithu palaioothi,
Pongi palum varugayile,
Pongalo pongal yenbom,
Thengayodu j karumbum chorum ,
Deivathukku padaithu vaithu.
Ondru chernthu undiduvom ,
Odi paadi aadiduvom.
After white washing well,
After cleaning the
house with water,
After taking bath at sawn,
After lighting one
lamp ,
IN the pot decorated by Rangoli ,
After tying
bunches of turmeric,
Keeping it in the
fire wood stove and pouring milk
in it ,
And when the l
milk boils and trying to ebb ourt ,
We would say “Pongalo
pongal”
After offering the Gods, Coconut as well as Sugarcane,
We would take
meals together ,
And play singing
, running and dancing.
A great song on Pongal

1.The pongal of thai month has come. Milk is boiling and ebbing out , please

Please tell a song

This Cauvery is
the affectionate mother to the south Indians ,
She is a deva
maiden who dresses herself in
the cloth called water ,
Hey thayya

The pongal of thai month has come. Milk is boiling and ebbing out , please

Please tell a song
praising the great river where
colourful maidens play,
2.Muppaattan kalam thottu

2.Who is responsible for three crops from time of our ancestors ,
It is due to water
of Cauvery which comes crossing stones and hills,
Would the seed
mingled with slushy mud not
produce seedlings ,
Would not wind
come along with the seedlings to tell
the news,
When we have gardens of red banana , red sugarcane , Jathi jasmine,
If none of them are
there it would be
only withering ,
Our heaven is in this mud and not in the sky ,
Our pleasure is in
our eye not in our dreams .
3.Thai pongalum
vanthathu , palum ponguthu , pattu
solladiyo,
Vanna Mangayar
aadidum maha nadhiyai poththi solladiyo,
Indha ponni
thennattavarkku anbin
annayadi ,
Ival thanneer
yendroru aadai kattidum deiva mangayadi
