கடல் உப்பால உருவாச்சு
உடல் தப்பாக உருவாச்சு
அட பழசையும் மறந்தாச்சு
புது கதவுகள் திறந்தாச்சு
Formed like salt from the sea
Bonded closely like heat of the body
Oh, the past has been forgotten
New doors of opportunity have opened

சதுரங்கத்தில் வெட்டுப்பட்டா
கண்ணீர் விடாதே
பெண்ணங்கத்தில் ஒட்டிக்கிட்டா
கவலைப்படாதே
If you lose a piece in chess
Do not shed tears
If you get attached to a woman
Do not worry
விளையாடு விளையாடு
விடிய விடிய விளையாடு
கொண்டாடு கொண்டாடு
குதிச்சு குதிச்சு கொண்டாடு
பயமறியா சிங்கம் ரெண்டு
நரம்புக்குள்ளே நட்பு உண்டு
சேர்ந்ததடா கர்வம் கொண்டு
தெரிக்குது பார் நெருப்புத்துண்டு
Play on, play on
Play until the day breaks
Celebrate, celebrate
Jump with joy and celebrate

அடங்காதே அடங்காதே
அடக்க அடக்க அடங்காதே
வளையாதே பணியாதே
எங்கும் எதுக்கும் அசையாதே
இரவு வந்தா ஏது தூக்கம்
இளமை வந்து ஆள தூக்கும்
கழுத்தடியில் ஈரம் பூக்கும்
நாக்கடியில் கொஞ்சம் வேர்க்கும்
The rope of emotional attachment in a woman
Why was it placed, my friend?
When you happen to meet the Creator
Ask him and find out, my friend
