நீ பொறுத்தது போதும் மாறிடு

முழு உலகே சேர்ந்து எதிர்த்தாலும்
நீ குனியாமல் திமிரு
Enough of fighting the old way, change yourself
Rewrite history anew
Even if the whole world stands united against you
Stand tall with pride without bowing down
தலை ஆட்டும் கூட்டம் நீக்கிடு
தலை தூக்கும் கொடுமையை தாக்கிடு
பின் வாங்காமல் கண் தூங்கலாம்
நீ நரிகளை ஓட்டிவிடு
Get rid of the crowd of yes-men
Attack the cruelty that rears its head
Without stepping back, without sleeping
Drive away the cunning foxes
அடிமை போலே நிதம் வாழ்ந்தால்
என்றும் விடியாது
அடிமேல் அடி தான் விழுந்தால் கூட
தர்மம் சாகுது
If you live every day like a slave
Dawn will never arrive for you
Even if blows fall upon blows
Righteousness will never die
ஆண் மற்றும் குழு :
விரல் நீட்டிடுவோம்
விதி மாற்றிடுவோம்
நிலை நாட்டிடுவோம்
வழி காட்டிடுவோம்
I will come, I will come
I will definitely come
To protect the truth
I will come truthfully
