நீ யார் தெரியுமா
நான் சொன்னால் புரியுமோ
உன்னை கொலை செய்த
கொலை காரி அவளை
ஞாபகம் இருக்குதா
Do you know who you are?
Will you understand if I tell you?
The murderess who killed you,
That woman who murdered you,
Do you remember her?
காலம் கடந்துமே
உன் காயம் ஆறுமா
ஏமாற்ற பட்டு வலியோடு செத்த
துரோகம் மறக்குமா
Even as time passes,
Will your wound ever heal?
Dying in pain after being betrayed,
Can that treachery ever be forgotten?
பூர்வ ஜென்மத்தில்
உன்னை ஜெயலக்ஷ்மி தான் கொன்றாள்
இந்த ஜென்மத்தில்
நாம் அவளை கொல்லலாம் வா
In your previous birth,
It was Jayalakshmi who killed you.
In this current birth,
Come, let us kill her!
நீ கொன்ற பின்னால் செத்து போகும்
அவள் போக வேண்டும் நரகம்
அவள் பாசம் நேசம் எல்லாம் வேசம்
வா அவளை கொல்லலாம் வா
After you kill her and she dies,
She must go straight to hell.
Her affection and love are all mere charades.
Come, let us kill her, come!
ஜெயலக்ஷ்மி ..
Jayalakshmi....eeee......

உன்னை வாட்டி வதைத்த அவளின்
மூச்சு கயிறை அறுத்துவிடு
தீயை மூட்டி வறுத்து வாட்டி
அவளின் கதையை முடித்து விடு
She who tormented and tortured you,
Cut off her breath and windpipe!
Kindle the fire, roast and scorch her,
Put an end to her story!
நேற்று வரை அவள் வாழ்ந்த வாழ்வில்
உனக்கும் உண்மையாய் இருந்ததில்லை
நம்ப வைத்து கழுத்தை அறுத்த
அவளின் உயிரை குடித்து விடு
In the life she lived until yesterday,
She was never true to you either.
She gained your trust and slitted your throat,
Drink her life away!
அழகாய் இருப்பாள்
நீ மயங்க வேண்டாம்
அவளை கொல்ல
நீ தயங்க வேண்டாம்
கொன்று விடு நீ
கொன்று விடு நீ
கொன்று விடு அவளை கொன்றுவிடு
She may look beautiful,
Do not get enchanted.
To kill her,
Do not hesitate.
Kill her, you kill her, you,
Kill her... kill that woman!...

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This haunting theme song from the psychological thriller film 'Saithan' serves as a hypnotic inner voice or spirit driving the protagonist towards revenge. It reminds the protagonist of his past life (poorva jenmam) where he was betrayed and brutally murdered by a woman named Jayalakshmi. The song urges him not to forget the pain of that ancient betrayal, warning him that her affection is fake and that he must show no mercy despite her beauty, urging him to murder her in this rebirth to exact vengeance.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Anaphora / Repetition (Adukkuthodar)
“Kollu kollu kollu kollu….”
The word 'Kollu' (Kill) and 'Jayalakshmi' are repeatedly chanted to build extreme intensity, dark hypnotic rhythm, and emotional anger.
Rhyme / Alliteration (Monai and Ethirai)
“Theeyai mootti varuthu vaatti”
The usage of matching internal sounds and end rhymes like 'vaatti' / 'mootti' / 'vaazhndha' enhances the rhythmic drive of the dark lyrics.
Metaphor & Imagery (Uruvagaimai)
“Avalin uyirai kudithuvidu”
Phrases like 'kaluthai arutha' (throat slit) and 'uyirai kudithuvidu' (drink her life) use visceral imagery to emphasize absolute destruction and revenge.

Trivia
The music for 'Saithan' was composed by Vijay Antony himself, who also starred as the lead actor in the film. The movie is loosely based on the Tamil novel 'Aah!' by Sujatha, dealing with past-life regression and psychological obsession.
