{ ஐயோ பாவம்
ஐயோ பாவம் ஆம்பள
அத சொல்லப் போறேன்
நானும் இந்த சாங்குல } (2)

அழக ரசிப்பதுதான்
ஆண்களின் விருப்பமடா
பழகிக் கெடுப்பதுதான்
பெண்களின் வழக்கமடா
Just admiring beauty
Is the desire of men, my friend
Getting close and then ruining things
Is the habit of women, my friend
சொல்ல சொல்ல
நூறு உண்டு சங்கதி
இந்த பெண்களாலே
இல்ல இல்ல நிம்மதி
நிம்மதி நிம்மதி
There are hundreds of things to tell
Oh my friend
Because of these women
There is no, no peace of mind
Peace... peace...
ஐயோ பாவம்
ஐயோ பாவம் ஐயோ
பாவம் ஆம்பள
சொல்லப் போறேன்

நானும் இந்த சாங்குல
Oh pity, oh pity

நானும் இந்த சாங்குல
Oh pity
Pity the poor man
I am going to say that
In this song too
பொல்லாதத பேச
அவ புன்னகையும் வீச
கழண்டு போயிடுதே
டிரௌசரு சும்மா
இருந்தாலும் நம்ம சுத்தி
வரும் பேயா அவதான்
பண்ணிடுவா மர்டரு
To talk wicked things
And flash a subtle smile
Makes our trousers slip off in fear
Even if we stay quiet
Like a ghost hovering around us
She herself will commit the murder
நடிப்பில் அவ
கலைமாமணி நயமா
நம்மள தொடரும் சனி
அவதானே திசை தேடி
துன்பம் தரும் சகுனி
She is a master award winner in acting
A curse that follows us cunningly
She is the one who seeks directions
And brings misery like Shakuni
பத்துத்தலை
பாம்பும் அவ பக்கத்துல
போக பயந்து நின்னதுதான்
சரித்திரம் கொட்டுகிற தேளும்
அவ கிட்டத்துல போக உசுற
விட்டதுதான் தரித்திரம்
Even a ten-headed serpent
To go near her
Stood in fear, that is history
Even a stinging scorpion
To go near her
Gave up its life, that is misfortune
எதுக்கும் அவ
அடங்காதவ எதையும்
செய்யத் தயங்காதவ
அவளாளே மனம் நோவ
செத்தேன் பல தடவ
She submits to nothing
She hesitates at nothing
Because of her, my heart aching
I died many times
{ ஐயோ பாவம்
ஐயோ பாவம் ஐயோ

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Ayyo Paavam' is a fast-paced, lighthearted comedy track from the movie 'Velainu Vandhutta Vellaikaaran' (2016). The song humorously laments the struggles of men in relationships, contrasting simple male intentions with what it comically frames as the cunning and troublemaking nature of women.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Hyperbole
“Pathuthala paambum ava pakkathula poga bayandhu ninnathuthaan sarithiram”
Extremely exaggerated imagery where even a ten-headed snake and a deadly scorpion fear going near a woman.
Allusion / Metaphor
“Ava thaanae dhesai thedi thunbam tharum saguni”
Comparing a trouble-causing woman to Shakuni, the famous manipulative character from the epic Mahabharata.
Monai (Initial Alliteration)

Repetition of the initial vowel sound 'E' across consecutive lines (Edhukkum / Edhaiyum) for rhythmic effect.
