↻ English translation
Ho ho ho…..
Desamae kann mulichikko
Oru kootammaai kai pudichikko
Per vendam madham sathi vendam
Usura onnaakki kaattu
Kadavulum antha government-um
Romba osarathil ingae irukku paar
Serntha thaan nedun thooram ketkum
Kurala nee yethi kaattu
Maram sedi manushena
Marupadi vethaichiduvom
Thadai vantha orae adi
Nodiyila mudichiduvom
Thadi vechu kalachida
Nenachida seeridivom
Kadal karai sollum kathai
Saritharam aakiduvom
Intha koottam ponaalum…oo..
Enga koochal pogathu…uu….
Vivasaayi illaiyena
Yenga kai virippom
Dei avan vazhva sorandaatha
Thadathu thol urippom
Kaveri illaiyena
Vervaiyil neer eduppom
Aanaalum oru naalu
Enga urimaiya meettu eduppom
Kaathodu thaan thaalam
Thatti vanthutom
Kammayila meena mungi vanthutom
Intha nelloda nizhala nambi vanthutom
Thaai mannoda madiyila vaazhurom
Hoi…hoi
:Namba porul naasamachi
Anga vera naatil poi
Vallarasu aakuromae
Vaarathila ettu naalu angae velai senju
Namba aaviya pookuromae
Avan laabatha yethuromae
Corporate cheap rate-u
Sila adimai thalaigala seiyuthu da
Un note-u kai naatta
Oru attai poochiya thinnuthu da
Aanaalum unnai jaicha
Thimir odambu vervaiyila minnuthu da
Enna illa namma mannil
Vethaichatha aruthuka da
Soru thantha amma iva
Kalapaiya vanangika da
Iva kalapaiya vanangika da
Hoi hoi hoi hoi
Desamae kann mulichikko
Oru kootammaai kai pudichikko
Per vendam madham sathi vendam
Usura onnakki kaattu
Kadavulum antha government-um
Romba osarathil ingae irukku paar
Serntha thaan nedun thooram ketkum
Kurala nee yethi kaattu
Maram sedi manushena
Marupadi vethaichiduvom
Thadai vantha orae adi
Nodiyila mudichiduvom
Thadi vechu kalachida
Nenachida seeridivom
Kadal karai sollum kathai
Saritharam aakiduvom vom vom
Vivasaayi illaiyena
Yenga kai virippom
Dei avan vazhva sorandaatha
Thadathu thol urippom
Kaveri illaiyena
Vervaiyil neer eduppom
Aanaalum oru naalu
Enga urimaiya meettu eduppom

Ho ho ho...
Oh nation, wake up!
Hold hands and unite as one crowd!
We don't need names, religion, or caste!
Bring our lives together and show our strength!
God and this government,
look, they sit way up high!
Only if we unite will our voice reach far,
so raise your voice high!
Trees, plants, and humanity—
we will sow them all again!
If any hurdle comes our way,
we will smash it in a single second!
If they think of dispersing us with batons,
we will roar and push back!
Like the story told by the seashore,
we will go down in history!
Even if this crowd leaves,
our battle cry will never fade!
If there is no farmer,
where will we stretch out our hands for food?
Hey, do not exploit his life,
or we will stop you and skin you alive!
If there is no Kaveri river,
we will draw water from our own sweat!
Even so, one day,
we will take back our rights!
To the rhythm ringing in our ears,
we have arrived clapping our hands!
We have dived like fish in the village pond and emerged!
Trusting the shade of this paddy, we have come!
We live in the lap of our motherland!
Hoy... hoy!
Our own resources are being ruined,
while we go off to other countries
and turn them into superpowers!
Working eight days a week over there,
we drain our very lives away,
and only raise their profits!
At cheap rates, the corporates
are turning people into slaves!
Your hard-earned cash and your thumbprint
are being fed upon by leeches!
Yet the proud spirit that overcomes everything
gleams in the sweat across your body!
What is missing in our soil?
Reap whatever you have sown!
She is the mother who feeds us;
bow down and honor the plough!
Bow down and honor her plough!
Hoy hoy hoy hoy!
Oh nation, wake up!
Hold hands and unite as one crowd!
We don't need names, religion, or caste!
Bring our lives together and show our strength!
God and this government,
look, they sit way up high!
Only if we unite will our voice reach far,
so raise your voice high!
Trees, plants, and humanity—
we will sow them all again!
If any hurdle comes our way,
we will smash it in a single second!
If they think of dispersing us with batons,
we will roar and push back!
Like the story told by the seashore,
we will go down in history!
If there is no farmer,
where will we stretch out our hands for food?
Hey, do not exploit his life,
or we will stop you and skin you alive!
If there is no Kaveri river,
we will draw water from our own sweat!
Even so, one day,
we will take back our rights!
Hoy...
