Walking with a smoulder
Through the night that is colder
அடிக்கடி நீ இறக்க நேரும்
மீண்டும் மீண்டும் பிறப்பிறந்திட
சில நினைவை மறக்க வேண்டும்
நாளை நோக்கி நட நடந்திட
You may have to step down often
Only to be reborn again and again
You must forget certain memories
To walk steadily toward tomorrow
எல்லை அதை தாண்ட வேண்டும்
வேறு எல்லை வரை வரைந்திட
எதிரிகளும் நடுங்க வேண்டும்
நீயும் கண்ணில் தெறி தெறிந்திட
You must cross those boundaries
To draw and define new boundaries
Even your enemies should tremble
When you become clearly visible in their sight
