Lyrics in English
Undaadi Gunda
Mane manege hoda
Hatthu laadu tinda
Hotte novu enda
Amma benne kottalu
Innu swalpa enda
Appa donne tandanu
Kai kattu, bayi muchchu
Lyrics in Kannada
ಉಂಡಾಡಿ ಗುಂಡ
ಮನೆ ಮನೆಗೆ ಹೋದ
ಹತ್ತು ಲಾಡು ತಿಂದ
ಹೊಟ್ಟೆ ನೋವು ಎಂದ
ಅಮ್ಮ ಬೆಣ್ಣೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟಳು
ಇನ್ನು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಎಂದ
ಅಪ್ಪ ದೊಣ್ಣೆ ತಂದನು
ಕೈ ಕಟ್ಟು, ಬಾಯಿ ಮುಚ್ಚು
Undadi Gunda Meaning
Gunda is a greedy boy (undadi). He goes from house to house, eats ten laddus and then cries that his stomach hurts. Amma gives him butter, and he asks for a little more! Then Appa comes with a stick (donne): “Fold your hands and shut your mouth.”
It is a funny way to tell children not to overeat. Act out the tummy ache and the stick at the end and they will laugh every time.
