அரைச்ச மாவ
அரைக்கிறான் அப்பா
அம்மா விளையாட்டில்
தொவைச்ச துணிய
தொவைக்குறான்
ஆதாம் ஏவாள் ரிப்பீட்டு
He grinds already ground flour,
In the play of father and mother (marriage),
He washes already washed clothes,
It is just Adam and Eve repeating history!

The Supreme Divine made it spin!
A man needs a wife,
He perishes searching for a woman!

Singing songs to forget worries,
Let us rock together as one!

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
This song from 'Vizhithiru' (2017) is an energetic folk-pop track written by T. Rajendar. It blends fast-paced Tamil kuthu rhythm with modern social media terminology such as Facebook, tagging, sharing, Wi-Fi, and downloading. The lyrics portray flirtatious romantic banter between lovers who discuss love, relationships, and modern digital lifestyle habits with humor and high energy. The song humorously compares domestic married life to repetitive actions like 'grinding ground flour' or 'washing washed clothes', referencing the ancient cycle starting from Adam and Eve. Through fast rhyming lyrics characteristic of T. Rajendar's style, the track celebrates youthful romance, social media obsession, and playful couple arguments.
