Kuladalli Keelyavudo Movie’s Nam Paiki Obba Obutta Lyrics English {Translation}
Anna Banda, Anna Banda, Anna Banda
Matte Hutti Ba, Geleya!
Brother has come, brother has come, brother has come.
Be born again, friend!
Namma Paiki Obba Obutta – Ayyoo!
Namghelde Loka Butbuta – Aaa!
Sum Sumke Tata Helbuta, Obutnallappo
Yek Dhammu Chatta Yerbutta
One of our own has passed away – oh no!
The whole world has said its goodbyes.
Saying quiet goodbyes is not one person.
Suddenly, life has left the body.
Hak Haku Thamte Yerdetu
Yethikku Steppu Bandatu
Hit the thamte (a type of hand drum) twice.
A step came naturally.
Nenne Ninthkondithu Body,
Ivathu Manikombudthu!
Bel Beligge Ithu Usru Pusuk Antha
Hontog Budthu!
Yesterday, the body was still.
Today, it has been laid down!
Early in the morning, the life said a quick ‘pusuk.’
And it went away!
Kododh Kotta Bhagavantha,
Ond Inoor Varsha Kodbardha!
Navu Hotel-Iddaglena Kaigond
Ivathu Laksha Idbardha!
God gave life.
Shouldn’t he have given another two hundred years?
When we were running hotels, we would face losses.
Shouldn’t he keep 1 lakh ready today?
Bali Badkourd Ondhe Doutu,
Byaredella Ok!
Save Kodangidre, Dyavru Huttus Beku Yake?
Huttus Beku Yake?
Those who live life have only one doubt.
Everything else is OK!
If death is destined, why should God create us?
Why should he create?
Geleya! Matte Hutti Ba, Geleya!
Namdu, Nimdu, Inyavlekka,
Nam Area Doctre Obutta!
Friend! Be born again, friend!
Ours, yours, there is no other accounting.
Our area’s doctor is one of us.
Yarana Hodre Phone Madi,
Hidka Bathiv Navu Bandsetta!
If anyone passes away, call.
We’ll come together as a group and catch them!
Hogorgella Tata!
Baye Baye! Salam! Namaste!
Goodbye to all those who are leaving!
Bye bye! Salaam (a greeting of peace commonly used by Muslims)! Namaste (a respectful Hindu greeting)!
