To surround and capture you
There is a desire in my heart
Female: Oo…..ooh

ஒடம்புதான் துடிக்குது
Why a matchstick when blowing out a lamp?
Male: Haa
Female: There are scriptures to read in the dark
Male: Haa
Female: For the signature written by your lips
My body is trembling with excitement
காற்றை துளைத்து ரகசியம் எல்லாம்
கண்டு பிடிக்கும் காலம் வந்தாச்சு
இன்னும் கொஞ்சம் தூரம்தான்
வெற்றி வெற்றி வெற்றி பெண்ணே
Piercing through the wind, all the secrets
The time has come to uncover them all
It's just a little more distance away
Victory, victory, victory, girl!

Remove the beard that pricks the young girl's cheek, Naidu
Will I fail to know what lies behind the darkness?
I have the sun in both eyes, will I fall?
உந்தன் முகம் அது எது சொல்லி விடு நாயுடு
கன்னி பெண்ணின் கன்னம் குத்தும் தாடி எடு நாயுடு
இருளுக்கு பின் பக்கம் அறியாமல் போவேனோ
இரு கண்ணில் சூரியன் உண்டு நான் வீழ்வேனா
I am a man from Southern Madurai
Will I ever fail to win?
Will a tiger hunter ever worry about...
...a mere branch? Will he think twice?
தென்மதுரைக்காரன் நான்
ஜெயிக்காமல் போவேனோ

The hero asserts his stealth, strength, and determination to unearth secrets and achieve victory, referencing his roots from Madurai and comparing his mission to a hunter capturing his prey.
