Saagumpodhu kooda
Aduthavanukku tholla kodukkaama
Saagavae maattaanugadaa….
There might be in the country,
There might be in the house,
A thousand friends...
But he is an uncontrollable friend!
He is a scoundrel of a friend!
He is an uncivilized friend!
He is an anarchic friend!
He is an arrogant friend!
Overall, he is a...
Cheap and worthless friend!
Friend... friend...
Friend... friend...
Kerosene, neem oil, castor oil...
Whatever ruin he faces, why should I care?
Darrraana daarraaana damukkenna!
Burn his effigy like an evil villain!
He is a bull wandering around town,
He is a number-one fraud!
If he comes to butter you up,
Run away without stopping!
He will nod his head continuously,
He will put on a dramatic act!
With a worn-out tire,
He drives a bluffing vehicle!
: Breaking his hands,
Breaking his legs,
Smashing his face,
Smashing his mouth,
I am gonna punch him, man!
Breaking hands,
Breaking legs,
Smashing face,
Smashing mouth,
Skinning his hide,
Stitching a dholak drum,
I am gonna beat it, man!
Kerosene, neem oil, castor oil...
Whatever ruin he faces, why should I care?
Darrraana daarraaana damukkenna!
Burn his effigy like an evil villain!
Hey..hey..hey…
Hey..hey..hey…
He isn't human, he's a precious gem!
The mouth that says this will twist!
Even an elephant slips its footing!
He will never reform, ever!
If it's girls, he will talk...
...till daybreak!
He won't leave...
...until the police arrive!
He gives only torture!
He tears our future like paper!
A true friend offers a shoulder...
...but this guy eats the fruit...
...and gives only the peel!
Breaking his hands,
Breaking his legs,
Smashing his face,
Smashing his mouth,
I am gonna punch him, man!
Breaking hands,
Breaking legs,
Smashing face,
Smashing mouth,
Skinning his hide,
Stitching a dholak drum,
I am gonna beat it, man!
Kerosene, neem oil, castor oil...
Whatever ruin he faces, why should I care?
Darrraana daarraaana damukkenna!
Burn his effigy like an evil villain!
..................
I desired...
I suffered agony!
Holding an auto bomb under the arm,
I suffered distress!
We were like train bogies,
You uncoupled us!
Pouring petrol over friendship,
You set it ablaze!
Crow's egg,
Showing the eye,
Left hanging,
Left wandering,
Many a time!
Your kiss...
Don't want it, go away girl!
He will give his blood,
My friend, girl!
Breaking his hands,
Breaking his legs,
Smashing his face,
Smashing his mouth,
I am gonna punch him, man!
Breaking hands,
Breaking legs,
Smashing face,
Smashing mouth,
Skinning his hide,
Stitching a dholak drum,
I am gonna beat it, man!
Oh my goodness!
This is world-class acting, lord!
Mate, why do you need this...
...publicity?
We don't want your friendship, man!
We are leaving!
Telling brand new lies,
He bundles them up!
Wearing that sheepskin on top,
He slaughters us!
Breaking his hands,
Breaking his legs,
Smashing his face,
Smashing his mouth,
I am gonna punch him, man!
Breaking hands,
Breaking legs,
Smashing face,
Smashing mouth,
Skinning his hide,
Stitching a dholak drum,
I am gonna beat it, man!
............................
Even when dying,
Without causing trouble to others,
They won't even die, man!....
