Mavelli comes to Cambridge

Lyrics - Girish Menon

The Asura king Mahaballi
Rich, generous had a big belly

The Devas just hated him
Into Patalam they kicked him

But he can visit us once a year
To meet his beloved, near and dear

SWAGATAM O MAHABALLI
TO CAMKERALA'S ONNAKALLI

For his sadya we've made Ollan
Sambar, Erisserry and some Kallan

He likes his rice mixed with Rasam
And tops it up with Payasam

To lift his spirits we've got Nadan Cull
For entertainment we'll do Onnam Thall

SWAGATAM O MAHABALLI
TO CAMKERALA'S ONNAKALLI
