நா பறக்க
ரெக்கை நூறா மொளைக்க
நாள் முழுக்க
மெதபாக இருக்க
As I fly
With a hundred wings sprouting
All day long
Floating effortlessly
தோழ உசத்தி
நெஞ்ச நேரா நிமித்தி
வாரேன் அசத்தி
வெடி போடு கொழுத்தி
Raising my shoulders high
Holding my chest up straight
I come to amaze everyone
Light the crackers and set them off
நா பறக்க
ரெக்கை நூறா மொளைக்க
நாள் முழுக்க
மெதபாக இருக்க
As I fly
With a hundred wings sprouting
All day long
Floating effortlessly
ஊரே திரும்பி
என்ன மட்டும்
பாத்து வியக்கணும்
சூடம் கொழுத்தி
தினம் தினம்
திஷ்டி கழிக்கணும்
The whole town turning around
Looking only at me
Should watch in sheer amazement
Lighting camphor
Every single day
To ward off the evil eye
பாத விரியுதே
பல்பு தானா எரியுதே
வாழ்க்கை புரியுதே
வாழும் நேக்கு தெரியுதே
The path expands before me
A light bulb turns on inside me automatically
Life becomes understood
I now know the knack of living
நான் தத்தி இல்ல
கெத்துகே தத்து புள்ள
I am no fool
I am the adopted child of swagger
நா பறக்க
ரெக்கை நூறா மொளைக்க
நாள் முழுக்க
மெதபாக இருக்க
As I fly
With a hundred wings sprouting
All day long
Floating effortlessly
தோழ உசத்தி
நெஞ்ச நேரா நிமித்தி
