Won't she tame it? Won't she tame it? Won't she tame it?
Won't she tame the stubborn, wild goat?
She is Aaravalli, a raging whirlwind,
A fiery queen who will show you her game!
She is a clever player, full of mischief,
The guardian of an invincible fort,
Her aim will never miss its target,
Watch your step, she is a landmine!
She is a clever player, full of mischief,
The guardian of an invincible fort,
Her aim will never miss its target,
Watch your step, she is a landmine!
She is a clever player, full of mischief,
The guardian of an invincible fort,
Her aim will never miss its target,
Watch your step, she is a landmine!

Iyaibu (End Rhyme)

Aravalli iva sooraavali

Repetition of ending syllables like 'valli' and 'kari' creates a driving rhythmic flow in the track.
