Pongal o pongal
When the sun turns vernal
Pongal o pongal
Harvest season functional
Pongal o pongal
Three days of joyful festival
Pongal o pongal
Bogi to discard wasteful
Pongal o pongal
Praying to the Sun God thankful
Pongal o pongal
To greet with sarkarai pongal
Pongal o pongal
A sport of bull-fight successful
Pongal o pongal
To one and all Happy Pongal
