உயிரெல்லாம் ஒன்றே உறவாவோம் இன்றே
காக்கை குருவி எங்கள் ஜாதி
என்றே சொன்னான் பாரதி
வாழும் உலகை அன்பால் வெல்ல
செய்வோம் செய்வோம் ஓர் விதி
நேயம் இருந்தால் போதுமடா
காயம் உடனே ஆறுமடா ஆறுமடா
All lives are one; let us become kin today.
"Crows and sparrows are our community"
Thus spoke poet Bharathi.
To conquer this living world with love,
Let us make, let us make a rule.
If affection is present, that is enough, my friend;
Wounds will heal immediately, heal immediately.

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song from 'Maaveeran Kittu' serves as an uplifting anthem advocating for social equality, harmony, and human unity. Drawing heavily on the egalitarian philosophy of Mahakavi Subramania Bharati, the song urges people to dismantle artificial social barriers, caste hierarchies, and prejudices. It illustrates how nature remains non-discriminatory—rain falls equally on everyone, and natural forces coexist without division—suggesting that humanity should emulate this intrinsic oneness.
