லேட்டு ஏன்னு ரீசன் சொல்லி
லைஃப்பு அழியுதோ?
தோழனோடா தண்ணி அடிச்சா
தோலு கிழியுதோ?
Giving reasons for being late
Is life getting ruined?
If I drink alcohol with a friend
Does my skin get ripped off?
பழைய காதலிங்க மேல
புதுசா ரேடாரோ?
எங்க போகும் போது உண்மேல்
குளோபல் ட்ராக்கரோ?
On past girlfriends
Is there a new radar tracking?
Wherever I go, on you
Is there a global tracker?
பத்துகிட்டு நின்னு என்ன்
முத்த தூறலோ
கணவனில்ல கடுவுளன்னு
ஸ்டேட்டஸ் ஏத்தலோவா?
If I stand looking closely
Is it a shower of kisses?
Not just a husband, but a god
Should I update the status?
ஓத வார்த்த சொன்யின்னா
கொத்த பாக்குதோ?
கண்ணீரு ஸ்நேக்காகி
கடிக்குதோ?
If I say a single word
Does it look like a bunch?
Does tears turn into a snake
And bite me?
ஓ! ஓஹோ!!
ஹார்டு ஸ்லே ஆயிட்டேன்
Oh! oooh!!

Seeing a woman
Even ghosts bow down

Wife is a wild forest ghost
Driving away all other ghosts

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This energetic and humorous track from the 2023 film 'Kushi' portrays the comical struggles of a newly married man coming to terms with the reality of married life. Having fallen in love in Kashmir while ignoring his father's advice, he playfully laments how his wife's intense possessiveness and authority dominate his life, lightheartedly likening her to a bomb and a sharp knife. Through witty Tanglish lyrics written by Madhan Karky, the song captures universal marital banter with exaggerated metaphors of tracking, interrogation, and complete surrender, wrapping a fun narrative around modern romantic dynamics.
