What has happened to our country?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Where on earth is socialism?
Chorus: Thathinathin
What Nehru said ended with yesterday,
What Gandhi said blew away in the wind!
If I speak out the plain truth,
Oh mother, it is terribly bad!
What has happened to our country?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Where on earth is socialism?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Haan...
The one who grew fat by grabbing must give back,
The one who grew weary by toiling must receive!
The one who grew fat by grabbing must give back,
The one who grew weary by toiling must receive!
Aaha oho ehe hey...
Aaha oho ehe hey...
On the hard labor of just ten people,
The entire world lives!
The very fence meant to protect the garden
Is grazing on the crops!
Society is divided into the lower and upper classes,
With rival factions forming and endless disputes in town!
To bell the cat,
Look, I have stepped forward!
Hey, men with self-respect,
Come along to stand by me!
If we dare, anything can happen,
We can even move the Himalayas!
What has happened to our country?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Where on earth is socialism?
Chorus: Thathinathin
It ended with yesterday—
Chorus: What Nehru said!
Male: Haan, it blew away in the wind—
Chorus: What Gandhi said!
Male: If I speak out the plain truth,
Oh mother!
Chorus: It is terribly bad!
What has happened to our country?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Where on earth is socialism? Ha haan!
...
A blow strikes the bellies of daily-wage workers,
If they ask for a little more pay, hatred flares up!
A laborer is always like a ladder,
Helping others climb up while remaining rooted on the ground!
Like soldiers in an army,
Only if we charge will they feel fear!
Haan, if we remain foolish,
Won't they keep knocking us down?
If washed, clothes will turn clean,
We can scrub away the old dirt!
What has happened to our country?
Chorus: Thathinathin
Male: Hey, where on earth is socialism?
