ஜில்லான பாருக்கு
துள்ள வரும் மானு
உன்னோட பாடப்போறேன்
ஆர்டர் பன்னு பீரு
Inside a chilled bar,
A deer comes leaping along,
I'm going to sing with you,
Go ahead and order a beer.
ராவா ஊத்திகின்னு ரவுசு விடாத
தலைக்கி ஏறிடிச்சான் உழப்பி விடாத
லேட்டு நைட்டுல தான் கடைய தேடாத
பேட்ரோல் மாம்சு கிட்ட மாட்டி புலம்பாத
Don't show off by drinking it neat,
Don't lose control saying it has hit your head.
Don't go searching for shops late at night,
Don't get caught by patrol cops and whine.
ஹே வாட்டர் கிளாசு ஒன்று
அத வாங்கிக்க யேங் கண்ணு
ஒரு கட்டிங் ஒன்னு போட்டுகின்னு
ஆரம்பிப்போமே
Hey, get a glass of water,
Grab that, my dear,
Taking a single peg (cutting),
Shall we begin?
சோகத்துக்கும் குடிச்சிகலாம்
சோசலியலாவும் ஊத்திக்கலாம்
லிமிட்டா போடு மானே
தாநே தந்தானே
We can drink to drown sadness,
We can also pour drinks socially,
Set yourself a limit, my dear,
Thaanae thandhanae...

பைட்டா ரவுண்ட கட்டி
குடிப்போம் நைட்டுல
சோகம் தாங்கல
ஊத்து கொய்யால
Brandy didn't kick in, haven't poured whisky,
Gathering together for a drinking session,
We will drink through the night.
Can't bear this sadness,
Pour it out, buddy!
ரம்மு ஜின்னுக்குதான்
ரெண்டு ரவுண்டு வுட்டாலே
பறந்து போயிடுவ
நிலவுக்கு நீ தன்னாலே
Just for rum and gin,
If you down two rounds,
You will fly away,
Straight to the moon on your own.
சிக்கனு தொட்டுக்கலமா

பட்டணம் மார்கு ஊறுகா போதும்
தந்நே தந்நாநே
Shall we pair it with chicken?
Shall we munch on a few peanuts?
Pattanam brand pickle is enough,
Thannae thannanae...
