ஆ இறைவனை விட்டு தள்ளு
இடைவெளி விட்டு நில்லு
கடவுளுக்கெல்லாம் பரவாது
பக்தர்கள் பத்திரம் சொல்லு
Ah, keep God out of this
Maintain your distance and stand
It won't spread to God
Tell the devotees to stay safe
மடையர்கள் கோட்டை
மதயானை கூட்டம்
மதி கொண்ட இளைஞருக்கோ
மது மீது நாட்டம்
A fort of fools
A herd of rogue elephants
For youth with intellect
Their interest turns to alcohol
எண்ணங்கள் எதை சுற்றி
எண்ணங்கள் அதை பற்றி
என் எண்ணம் உன்னை சுற்றி
என்னிடம் வா
What do thoughts revolve around?
Thoughts hold onto that
My thoughts revolve around you
Come to me
கன்னங்கள் அதை பற்றி
உன் கன்னத்தில் என் நெற்றி
கண் இமைக்கும் முன்னே
ஏன் மறைந்தாய்
Holding onto cheeks
My forehead against your cheek
Before the blink of an eye
Why did you disappear?
உன்மேல காதல் கொண்டால்
பேட் ட்ரீம்ஸ் மற்றும் நைட்மேர்
ஆசை என்றால்
பைட் மீ.....ஐ வோன்ட் பைட் பேக்
தேவை இல்லா
சண்டைகள் டோன்ட் லைக் தட்
If I fall in love with you
Male: Bad dreams and nightmare
Male: If it is desire
Male: Fight me.. I won’t fight back
Male: Unnecessary
Male: Fights, don’t like that
I gave you my heart
But all you give me back is
Dark thoughts
I gave you my heart
But all you give me back is
Dark thoughts
நெஞ்சம் எல்லாம் டார்க் தாட்ஸ்
நெஞ்சம் எல்லாம் டார்க் தாட்ஸ்

வீட்ட விட்டு வெளிய போக வேணாம்
பூட்றா கேட்டா
என் கண்ணு வேணுமான்னு
கமல்ஹாசன் போல கேட்டேன்
டிக் டாக்ல
எல்லாம் மாறியும் வீடியோ பண்ணி போட்டேன்
என்ன அடைச்சி வெச்சதால
அதிகம் ஆகிடுச்சி சேட்டை
Don't go out of the house
Lock the gate
Asking if you want my eyes
I asked like Kamal Haasan
On TikTok
I made videos dressing up in different ways
Because I was locked inside
My mischiefs increased
No it ain’t funny
But we got no money
இந்த 2020ல அரையே தாண்டல
அதுக்குள்ள ஏழரை சனி
தட்ஸ் வாட் ஹி டோல்ட் மீ
ஜூம் கால்ல ஹோம்மிஸ்
டெய்லி ஹவுஸ் பார்ட்டி
ஆனா தனியாதான் மாமி
No it ain’t funny
But we got no money
In this 2020, we haven't even crossed half
And already misfortune strikes
That’s what he told me
Homies on a Zoom call
Daily house party
But staying alone, maami
ஆப் எல்லாம் ஆப் ஆச்சி
கம்ப்யூட்டர் காப்பாத்தும்
என்ன சொன்ன மச்சானுக்கு
யுஎஸ் ல ஜாப் போச்சி
ஹார்டு டைம்ஸ் இன் சாப்ட்வேர்ரு
இதுல வேற ஹேர் fall-u
கிருமிக்கு நடுவுல போர் ஒன்னு வருதாம்
ஐ ஆம் ம கால் பெயிண்டர் கோபாலு
All apps were turned off
Computers will save us
The friend who said that
Lost his job in the US
Hard times in software
On top of that, hair fall
A war is brewing amidst germs
I'm gonna call painter Gobalu
வெளிய போனா சானிடோரியம்
நாங்க சாணிடைசர் தேடி ஓடுறோம்
என்னத்த பண்றது
ஒரு முறைதான் நாம வாழுவோம்
சோ இருக்குற வரைக்கும்
ஜாலியா இருந்துட்டு போய் சேருவோம்'
If you go out, it's a sanatorium
We are running around searching for sanitizer
What is there to do?
We live only once
So as long as we exist
Let's stay happy and then depart
உன்மேல காதல் கொண்டால்

ஆ எதுவாச்சும் செய்யலாம்னு
விரைவா நான் கெளம்பி போனா
எவனாச்சும் எதுவாச்சும் சொல்லுவான்
எதுவும் செய்ய வேணா
Ah, thinking of doing something
When I set out quickly
Someone will say something
Telling me not to do anything
எனக்குள்ள எதுவோ ஒன்னு
எதிர் மறையா எதையோ சொல்லி
உடனே நான் செய்ய போனா
வேலைய வச்சிடுவேனே தள்ளி
Something inside me
Says something negative
When I go to do it immediately
I end up pushing the work away
குறை சொல்லி குறை சொல்லி
மேலே வருபவனை
கீழே தள்ளி
உயிர் கொல்லி உயிர் கொல்லி
என் உணர்வை கொள்ளும் ஒரு வகை பல்லி
Finding faults, finding faults
Pushing down the person coming up
Life-killer, life-killer
A type of lizard killing my feelings
இது இருக்கும் இடம் அது இன்டர்நெட்
என் கவிதைகள் லெப்ட் ரைட் சென்டர் பிரெஸ்
I gotta get this off my chest
வெல்லும் வரை நிற்காதே நோ ரெஸ்ட்
The place where this exists is the internet
My poems are fresh left, right, and center
I gotta get this off my chest
Don't stop until winning, no rest
யாருமே செய்யாத இம்ப்ரெஸ்
உள்ளுக்குள் ஆகாதே டிப்ரஸ்ட்
கஷ்டங்கள் எல்லாமே கம்ப்ரெஸ்
தேவை இல்லை இனிமேலே ஸ்ட்ரெஸ்
Don't try to impress anyone
Don't get depressed inside
Compress all the troubles
No need for stress anymore

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
'Naa Oru Alien' by Hiphop Tamizha is a reflective hip-hop track capturing the frustration, anxiety, and social shifts during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown. It blends themes of romantic turmoil with broader societal observations—ranging from social distancing, Zoom calls, and IT job losses to internet criticism and mental health struggles like depression and negative self-talk. Through urban slang and relatable pop-culture references, the song presents a youth's perspective on feeling disconnected like an 'alien' in an unpredictable world while urging perseverance, self-belief, and staying positive despite dark thoughts.
