அண்டம் ஆட
கண்டம் ஆட
சண்டை செய்யும்
சுத்த வீரன்
சண்ட மாருதத்தை போல
முட்டி மோதும் வித்தை காரன்
As the universe dances,
As the continents tremble,
Who engages in battle,
A pure warrior,
Like a stormy gale,
A magician who clashes and hits,
ரெண்டு கண்ணும்
ரெண்டு மின்னல்
துண்டு போல
மின்னும் சூரன்
தீராதி தீரன்டா
Both eyes,
Are two flashes of lightning,
Bright like a piece of cloth,
A valiant hero shining,
He is the hero of heroes,
பஞ்ச பூதம் அஞ்சி நோக்கும்
பார்த்த கண்கள் தஞ்சம் கேட்கும்
வஞ்சத்தோடு வந்த கூட்டம்
பஞ்சு போல பிஞ்சு போகும்
நெஞ்சில் யூகம் தோழில் வீரம்
மாறிடாத அஸ்திவாரம்
சூராதி சூரண்டா
Even the five elements look on in fear,
Eyes that see him beg for refuge,
The group that comes with deceit,
Will be torn apart like cotton,
Intuition in the heart, bravery in action,
An unshakeable foundation,
He is the champion among champions,
கன்னி வெடி மேல
கால வச்ச ஆள போல
தீமை செய்தவனின்
தேகம் பரந்தோடுமே
ஏழை வாழ்வை கொல்லும்
மூடருக்கு எச்சரிக்கை
சாது மிரண்டா காடே அலறும்
Like a person who stepped,
On top of a landmine,
The body of the evil-doer,
Will fly and scatter away,
Destroying the life of the poor,
A warning to those fools,
If a gentle person rages, even the forest will roar,
நான் தானே காரணம்
தீமைகள் தீந்து போக
நான் தானே காரணம்
நல்லவங்க வாழனும்
நான் தானே காரணம்
நான் தானே காரணம்
துஷ்ட வேலை செய்தவன்
தூக்கு மேடை ஏறனும்..
I am the sole reason,
For evils to burn away,
I am the sole reason,
For good people to survive,
I am the sole reason,
I am the sole reason,
The one who does wicked deeds,
Must climb the gallows platform..
வாய் பேசாத
ஊமை போடும் சத்தம்
அந்த வானை கூட தாண்டி கேட்குமே
ஏழை கண்ணின் ஓரம் மின்னும்
ஈரம் போதும் எழு லோகம் மூழ்கி போகுமே
Without speaking a word,
The cry made by the mute,
Will be heard far beyond even the sky,
Glinting in the corner of a poor person's eye,
A drop of moisture is enough to drown seven worlds,
வாளை போல ஆளை சீவி கொண்டு
போகும் எந்தன் வாழ்க்கை பாரடா
நியாயம் இல்லை என்று தோன்றினாலும்
நெஞ்சம் கூறுகின்ற நியாயம் இங்கு வேறடா
Slicing through people like a plantain tree,
Look, my life goes on like this,
Even if it seems like there is no justice,
The justice my heart proclaims here is entirely different,
நான் தானே காரணம்
தீமைகள் தீந்து போக
நான் தானே காரணம்
நல்லவங்க வாழனும்
நான் தானே காரணம்
நான் தானே காரணம்
துஷ்ட வேலை செய்தவன்
தூக்கு மேடை ஏறனும்..
I am the sole reason,
For evils to burn away,
I am the sole reason,
For good people to survive,
I am the sole reason,
I am the sole reason,
The one who does wicked deeds,
Must climb the gallows platform..
