The Election Commission has announced
the fourteenth Assembly elections.
Friend, what is he saying?
Male: He says the elections have arrived, man!
Hey, hang up the festoons!
Paste the posters!
Look at the gentleman, look at the lady!
Fold your hands in greeting and hoist the flag!
We are going to win, we are going to win!
We are going to capture the seat of power!
Hey brother, elder sister,
and our younger sister!
The one that is going to win this time
is our party!
If they try to buy our votes with cash,
we will chase them away!
Declaring that we are our own kings here,
we will build our own party!
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Cast your vote, dear folks,
to change our destiny!
Cast your vote, dear folks,
to change our destiny!
Hey, he will claim that a lamb lays eggs,
that is the tall tale he will tell you, man!
And inside that egg, a nose-stud,
he will pretend he placed it there, man!
If you trust his words and cast your vote,
you will end up completely ruined!
Just think about it carefully,
and a good life will be yours!
Hey, thaana nanne,
thaana nanne thaane nannaa!
Hey, thaana nanne,
thaana nanne thaane nannaa!
Chennai, Madurai, Coimbatore, Trichy,
making Salem and Kovai shake with power!
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Hey, carrying milk and rosewater kavadi (ritual burden) offerings,
we have tried lifting them all, man!
Which godman is ever going to
lift your life up, man?
Where is the minister who won and vanished?
Just go search for him, man!
The true god that keeps us alive
is the vote that we cast, man!
Hey brother, elder sister,
and our younger sister!
The one that is going to win this time
is our party!
If they try to buy our votes with cash,
we will chase them away!
Declaring that we are our own kings here,
we will build our own party!
Haan... aa... nnn...
Hey, mounting the stage and yelling loud promises,
he will bring you to ruin!
In the name of caste and religion,
he will divide humanity!
In the darkness from now on,
we will not get trapped anymore, man!
Standing by our side to guide us,
we have the torchlight, man!
Hey, thaana nanne,
thaana nanne thaane nannaa!
Hey, thaana nanne,
thaana nanne thaane nannaa!
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Is this army enough?
Or do you want some more?
Cast your vote, dear folks,
to change our destiny!
Cast your vote, dear folks,
to change our destiny!
