கடவுளே வந்து தந்தாலும்

He will not let go, yo yo yo!
I am going to kill you simply,
By planning it out, bro... bro!
படை தலைவன் இங்கே
களம் இறங்கி விட்டான்
எதிர் நின்றவனையே
அவன் அலற விட்டான்
The army commander here,
Has stepped into the battlefield.
The one who stood in opposition,
He made him scream in fear.

He made him scream in fear.
ராட்சனின் தெய்வம் இவன்

He will eradicate traitors entirely.
He is like an elephant in musth,
Yet if you kneel before him, he will forgive.

கிட்ட வெச்சிக்காத இவன் ரொம்ப டேஞ்சர்
பிரச்னைன்னு வந்தா அண்ணன் ஒரு சோல்ட்ஜர்
சைலெண்டா தான் செய்வான்
தட்டி கொடுக்குற மேட்டெர்ல
தொட்டு பாத்தா காலி உன் சாப்டர்
Don't mess with him, he is very dangerous,
When trouble arises, brother is a soldier.
He acts silently,
When it comes to giving an encouraging pat,
But if you try touching him, your chapter is over!

No need for big weapons or equipment,
A small tool is enough,
Generously in hand, without getting trapped here,
He will accomplish things in abundance!
நூறு பெற கூட இவன்

டானு கெல்லாம் டானு
நம்ம சில்வர் ஜூப்லி ஸ்டாரு
Even a hundred people together,
Cannot even touch his shadow.
He is the Don of all Dons,
Our Silver Jubilee Star!

That made Alexander scream in fear!
No matter who comes from all eight directions,
He will knock them down easily.
