All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
Is this a dance our ancestors never danced?
Look around and see for yourself in this town!
My speed is smooth and swift like boneless chicken!
If I say so, just accept it!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
Picking fights and showing off rising arrogance,
Oh no, that won't work here!
Chorus: Thigida thagida thigida thagida thigida hoy!
Male: Don't keep bragging word for word, hold on!
Your silly tricks won't work here!
Chorus: Thigida thagida thigida thagida thigida hoy!
Tap my shoulder, I can match you shoulder to shoulder!
Get close, face to face, and see!
Chorus: Hey!
Male: Jump and dance, I have a song for every song!
Sing it out to the tune and see!
Chorus: Hey!
Male: Everything over there is pure trash, beating off-rhythm!
We need to bring a garbage truck and dump it all away!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
Is this a dance our ancestors never danced?
Look around and see for yourself in this town!
My speed is smooth and swift like boneless chicken!
If I say so, just accept it!
I've put on a concert for the whole town to see, hoy!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
What a golden girl, a girl who shines bright!
Your eyes are like butterflies!
Chorus: Thigida thagida thigida thagida thigida hoy!
Male: Why stop at one? I'll give you a hundred and one!
Come close and count them!
Chorus: Thigida thagida thigida thagida thigida hoy!
Agree to hold hands and love each other,
Learn it from me, my darling!
Chorus: Hoy!
Male: Oh my, when I pluck this sweet honey bud,
Be swept off your feet, my precious gem!
Chorus: Hoy!
Male: I will enchant you and leave you spellbound!
I still have plenty of charm left, there's no shortage, ho!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
Is this a dance our ancestors never danced?
Look around and see for yourself in this town!
My speed is smooth and swift like boneless chicken!
If I say so, just accept it!
I've put on a concert for the whole town to see, hoy!
All my songs are super hits, just listen!
Come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!
Hey, all my songs are super hits, just listen!
Hoo, come on, man, take it in your ears and listen!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Paattellaam Super Hit-tu is a high-energy dance track from the 1995 Tamil movie Raasaiyya. The song serves as a boastful anthem celebrating the protagonist's musical talent, effortless agility, and dance skills. He playfully dismisses rivals whose music is off-beat garbage and proudly asserts that all of his songs are guaranteed blockbusters. In the second half, the song transitions into a playful romantic track where he woos his lover, admiring her butterfly-like eyes and promising endless affection. Written with urban slang and colloquial humor by Vaali, the song captures youthful confidence and celebration.

Trivia

The song is composed by Maestro Ilaiyaraaja and sung by Mano and K. S. Chithra. The film stars Prabhu Deva, famous for his lightning-fast dance moves, which inspired lyricist Vaali to write the eccentric line comparing his speed to 'boneless chicken'.
