Tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
...
Tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
Tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
The cruel burden of poverty,
push it away into a corner.
If you have even a little bit of fear left,
dump it into the flowing stream.
That all deep worries have ended,
write it down and paste it on your heart.
Tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
...
During your school days and college years,
love will come; get past it and move on, my friend.
Through wicked thoughts and infatuation with women,
an intoxicating haze will come; clear your mind and overcome it, my friend.
Carry your ambitions on your shoulders,
fight hard until victory arrives.
Tomorrow's history will live on with your name.
A golden future
will build itself on its own.
Your tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
...
When you face disappointment,
when the town insults and mocks you,
anger will rise; let it go and move forward, my friend.
In your drive to move ahead,
with time standing by your side,
a path will open up; walk along it, my friend.
Do not look at caste or religion,
do not carry around horoscopes.
Do not search for your future in the lines of your palm.
Ayya (revered leader Periyar) told us this,
do not think of his words as a lie!
Your tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
The cruel burden of poverty,
push it away into a corner.
If you have even a little bit of fear left,
dump it into the flowing stream.
That all deep worries have ended,
write it down and paste it on your heart.
Tears won't earn you money, my friend.
Your worries won't earn you any honors here, my friend.
My dearest friend...
