| Idharkuthaan valimai serthomae | Is it for this that we gathered our strength? |

இதற்குத்தான் வலிமை சேர்த்தோமே
இதற்குதானோ
ரணகள் காரணங்கள் ஆகிடுதே
காரணகளாய் இருந்த தோள்கள் தோள்கள்
சுமந்த பாரங்களை அன்போடு நினைக்குதே
Is it for this that we gathered our strength?
Was it really for this?
Wounds are now becoming the reasons for triumph.
The shoulders that stood as the reasons,
Now affectionately recall the burdens they carried.
முயன்று பார்த்தோமே
ஓ ஓ ஓ.....ஹோ ஓ இந்த நொடிகளே
ஓ ஓ ஓ.....ஹோ ஓ இன்ப வெடிகளே
இதற்கே அந்த வழிகளே
கண்ணீர் துளிகளே
கண்ணீர் துளிகளே
We tried with all our might.
Oh, these very moments,
Oh, are like joyful fireworks bursting!
Those painful paths were all for this,
And those tears that fell,
And those tears that fell.
சிலந்தியின் வழிகளே
வலைகளாக மாறும் இந்த நாளோ
தரிகளின் அடிகளில் ஆடையாகும் நூலோ
ஒளிவிடும் பதக்கங்கள் கொள்வார் யாரோ
அவர்களின் கால்களில் தினம் உழைத்த சீரோ
Are the painful trails of a spider
Turning into strong webs on this day?
Is the thread turning into a garment in the flowing river of looms?
Who will claim the shining medals?
Is it the dirt that labored daily beneath their feet?
ஓ ஓ ஓ.....ஹோ ஓ இந்த நொடிகளே
ஓ ஓ ஓ.....ஹோ ஓ இன்ப வெடிகளே
