| Thada thada vena boomi nadunga | As the earth shakes with a thudding sound |
| Pada pada vena vaanam vedikka | As the sky explodes with a crackling burst |

தட தட வென பூமி நடுங்க
பட பட வென வானம் வெடிக்க
ஆயிரம் ஆயிரம் டியாபரை தாண்டி
மெத்தையை மொத்தம் நனைப்பவன் இவனே
As the earth shakes with a thudding sound
As the sky explodes with a crackling burst
Piercing through thousands and thousands of diapers
He is the one who drenches the entire mattress
சல சலவென எச்சி ஒழுக
கலர் கலரா மொக்கு நனைய
காலையும் மாலையும் வாயை திறந்து
லாலிபாப்பை சப்பும் சந்திரனே
As saliva trickles down steadily
As colorful mucus wets his nose
Opening his mouth morning and evening
Oh moon-like guy who keeps sucking on a lollipop
ஹோ ஓ ஓ ஹோ
சிங்க குட்டி குளியல் போடா தங்க தொட்டி...
Hoo oo oo hoo
Here is the golden tub for the lion cub to take a bath...
ஓபனிங் சாங் இது
ஹேப்பனிங் சாங் இது
பாசகார கூட்டமெல்லாம் நாசமா போகுது
This is the opening song
This is a happening song
The affectionate group of people is heading for ruin
திருபாச்சி வாள இவனோ
மரபாச்சி டால் இவனோ
சூ மந்த்ர காளியனோ
ஜுமாஞ்சி குரங்கு இவனோ
This is the opening song
This is a happening song
The affectionate group of people is heading for ruin
பள்ளிக்கும் சிலந்திக்கும்
அஞ்சாத கொசு இவனோ
பஞ்ச் வசனம் பேசித்தான்
இன்ச் இன்ச்சா கொல்பவனோ
Is he a Thirupachi sword?
Is he a wooden doll (Marapachi)?
Is he a magical sorcerer?
Is he a monkey from Jumanji?
இவன் உத்து பார்த்தா நீ உப்பு கண்டம்
கைய வெச்சா நீ மிருதங்கம்
வோர்ல்ட் மேப்ப இவன் மூந்து பார்த்தா
எகிறி போகுமடா ஏழு கண்டமும்
Unafraid of house lizards and spiders
Is he a fearless mosquito?
Just by delivering punch dialogues
Is he someone who kills inch by inch?
இவன் எட்டி பார்த்தா குட்ட குழம்பும்
கட்டி புடிச்சா உன் சோலி முடியும்
பாட்டு படிச்சா காத்து எரியும்
எனிமி நடுங்கும் கிருமி இவன்தாண்டா
If he stares intently at you, you turn into dried salted meat
If he lays a hand on you, you will beat like a mridangam drum
If he takes a whiff of the world map
All seven continents will blow away, man!
சிங்க குட்டி குளியல் போடா தங்க தொட்டி...
If he peeks over, even a small pond gets stirred into mud
If he hugs you, your chapter is closed
If he sings a song, your ears will burn
He is the germ that makes the enemy tremble
ஓபனிங் சாங் இது
ஹேப்பனிங் சாங் இது
பாசகார கூட்டமெல்லாம் நாசமா போகுது
Here is the golden tub for the lion cub to take a bath...
ஓபனிங் சாங் இது
ஹேப்பனிங் சாங் இது
பாசகார கூட்டமெல்லாம் நாசமா போகுது
This is the opening song
This is a happening song
The affectionate group of people is heading for ruin
காதல் வெற்றி காதல் தோல்வி
எதையம் தாங்கும் இதயம்
தனியாளா ஹனிமூன் போவான்
எவனால் இங்க முடியும்
This is the opening song
This is a happening song
The affectionate group of people is heading for ruin
குப்புற படுத்து யோசிச்சாலே
கார்பரேட்டு அலறும்
இவன் ரப்பர வெச்சு தேச்சா போதும்
ரவுடி கூட்டம் அழியும்
Love's victory or love's defeat
He has a heart that can endure anything
He will go on a honeymoon all by himself
Who else here can pull that off?
பொலக்காத பூசணி டா இவன்
நசுங்காத எலுமிச்ச டா
சிதறாத சில்லற டா இவன்
ஏழைகளுக்கு ஏழற டா
If he just lies face down and thinks
The corporate world will scream in fear
It is enough if he erases with a rubber eraser
The gang of rowdies will be wiped out
ஆட்டம் இங்க ஆடாத
உன் ஆயுள் முடிஞ்சு போகுமடா
ஹாப்பி பர்த்டே கேன்டல் கூட
ஆட்டம் பாமா மாறுமடா
He is an unsplit pumpkin, man
An uncrushed lemon, man
He is loose change that hasn't scattered
He is unpredictable trouble for the poor!
Don't try to show off your moves here
Your lifetime will come to an end, man
Even a happy birthday candle
Will turn into an atom bomb, man!

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This track is a high-energy, humorous hero-introduction song composed by Hiphop Tamizha for the movie 'Aalambana'. Packed with colorful local slang, comical hyperboles, and absurd metaphors, the lyrics playfully juxtapose childish baby-like habits (wetting diapers, sucking lollipops, runny nose) with destructive, larger-than-life superhero capabilities (blowing away continents, scaring corporate heads, turning birthday candles into atom bombs). The song celebrates a chaotic, unpredictable protagonist whose antics leave everyone around him both exasperated and entertained.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Erattai Kilavi (Onomatopoeia)
“Thada thada vena boomi nadunga / Pada pada vena vaanam vedikka”
Rhythmic sound-imitative words ('Thada thada', 'Pada pada', 'Sala sala') used to describe sudden physical impacts and flowing liquids.
Ethugai (Second-letter Rhyme)
“Thirupachi vaal ivano / Marapachi doll ivano”
The second consonant sound 'ra' (ரி/ர) rhymes across consecutive lines, creating lyrical harmony.
Hyperbole (Exaggeration)
“Happy birthday candle kooda / Atom bomb-ma maarumadaa”
Extremely exaggerated imagery where a harmless birthday candle transforms into a massive nuclear weapon to depict the character's explosive intensity.
Iyaipu (End Rhyme)
“Opening song idhu / Happening song idhu”
The lines end with identical words/rhyming sounds ('song idhu') to maintain catchy rhythm.
