Holy sword and anklet

Carrying the holy sword and sacred anklet
in her arms, the Noble Lady (goddess Kali)
went to the holy presence of the Good Father1
and began dancing
-in that way
 
Now I shall forget,
so should the good father,
forget, because
there's another dowry to be had
-in that way
 
At the western end of our house,
in the Valaru2 stone vault,
lies seven and a half baskets of seed
-in that way
 
Half a basket of seed from that,
give to me as a dowry,
O dear father, the
god of the Northern Dynasty
-in that way
 
It is not rice or seed3,
my dear daughter,
that seed is demon seed4,
that is its name
-in that way
 
Carrying the holy sword and sacred anklet
in her arms, the Noble Lady (goddess)
went to the holy presence of the Good Father
and began dancing
-in that way
 
If you look at it with your eyes
and call it seed
your eyeballs will explode
and fall away
-like that
 
If you say with your tongue
that it is seed
the root of your tongue will rot
and fall away
-like that
 
Bring it, bring it,
bring it to me girl,
Kali dear, O Mother of Kodungallur5
 
That seed, the demon seed, bring it,
bring it to me, O Mother of Kodungallur
 
If that seed reaches another land
it is a danger to all humans
 
-in that way, in that way
