Vaalekum Salam

Salam salam
Valekum salam ee mannig ondsala
Hethorig ond salam ben tattoig ond salam
Tholallide thakattu tappodilla neeyattu
Tholallide thakattu tappodilla neeyattu
Kaiya katti kurodilla naanu yavathu
Nammana athare coolie nav ilde duniya ne khali
Nammana athare coolie nav ilde duniya ne khali
Walekum assalam ee mannig ondsala
Hethorig ond salam ben tattoig ond salam
Nindu annod endu nin bittu hogodilla
Yavdu alvo nindu nin hatra uliyodilla
Dekh bhai dekho bhai nee yeste dudi
Tinnode ond hidi thilkond naadi
Shaale noodilla hididilla slate-u
Shaale kathivi naav thane great-u
Kedavo kai gintha kattone right-u
Yella kattadaku paaya nam heart-u
Bhare ittu summaniruva bhoomige salam
Coolie kottu namma kaayo maalige salam
Deshane kathane coolie avan ilde duniya ne khali
Nammana athare coolie nav ilde duniya ne khali
Olle manasa antha anbeku naalku mandi
Hange baalo thamma adakage bhoomig bandi
Ye bhai dekh bhai elro bedore bhai
Conductor-u collector-u cm adru coolie bhai
Soothag heloru yellaru gotha
Coolie madkondu baalthivi antha
Kaiya bidalara yaarnu bhagavantha
Yaaru ildorige avanene swantha
Yetharakke erisiruva eenige salam
Kaayakave kailasa neethige salam
Nammana athare coolie nav ilde duniya ne khali
Nammana athare coolie nav ilde duniya ne khali
Valekum assalam ee mannig ondsala
Hethorig ond salam ben tattoig ond salam

Vaalekum Salam

Salam salam
Valekum salam my pretty lass
For you one salam and for you one salam
I won't ever leave you disappointed
I won't ever leave you disappointed
I won't ever hold your hand
We are just coolies in this world
We are just coolies in this world
Walekum assalam my pretty lass
For you one salam and for you one salam
I don't think you'll ever leave me
Why would you leave me?
Look, my dear, look at you, you're so pretty
You wear such fancy clothes
You don't need a school or a slate
You're the best in your school
You can write with your right hand
We all love you dearly
Greetings to this beautiful land
Greetings to our coolie work
This country belongs to us coolies
We are just coolies in this world
All good people are kind
Come, my friend, let's become brothers
Hey, brother, look, we're all brothers
Conductors, collectors, and even the CM are all coolies
We all understand each other
We coolies made this world
Who can stop us now?
We belong to ourselves
Greetings to those who work hard
Greetings to those who find joy in their work
We are just coolies in this world
We are just coolies in this world
Valekum assalam my pretty lass
For you one salam and for you one salam
