Running race-yil PT Usha world women thaanaiyaa

Thannai thotta kanavanin padukkai nee podanum
Pombala paninjathuthaan nadakkanum
Kutta kutta kuninja kaalam ippo pochchu

Don't take a woman lightly,
Don't you dare think so, my king!
Without asafoetida, no rasam
Will ever smell fragrant!
Don't take a woman lightly,
Don't you dare think so, my king!
Without asafoetida, no rasam
Will ever smell fragrant!
Even the Earth is a woman,
Every blossom belongs to womankind!
In the great city of Madurai,
It was Meenakshi who transformed Lord Shiva into Sokkan!
Female: Bravo!...
Don't take a woman lightly,
Don't you dare think so, my king!
Without asafoetida, no rasam
Will ever smell fragrant!
Look, if salt, tamarind, and spice—these three—
Don't blend together as one,
The curry won't taste good, mister!
You cannot compete with us, mister!
Hey kitchen parrot,
Just going to an office won't sprout a mustache on you!
You can never surpass us men!
Female: What nonsense!
In tennis, Steffi Graf,
And in track races, P. T. Usha—aren't they world-famous women, mister?
Why are you still bringing up old stories, mister?
Even if a woman reaches the sky,
She must still make the bed for the husband who married her!
A woman must always remain humble and submissive!
The days of bowing down whenever pushed are gone!
Aha, the days of bowing down whenever pushed are gone!
By law, men and women have become equal now!
Male: But with bottle milk, a baby loses a mother's true love!
A man...
Female: Oh really?...
Male: A man...
Don't take him lightly, my rose!
Female: Oh please, just go away!
Male: Don't take a man lightly, my rose!
Look, without dissolving into the rasam, asafoetida
Won't smell fragrant at all!
Look, since the dawn of time,
There is no woman without a man; Adam was first!
And Eve was just his helper!
Female: Hey, no matter what era it is,
It is only through us that new generations are born!
That is where the real power lies!
You are just a hen;
The thali (sacred wedding thread) you wear with a bindi and flowers was given by me!
Only because of that did you gain any status!
Female: Hey, by guiding wayward men,
It is we women who held the family together!
And made a civilized human out of a monkey!
Female: Superb, girl!...
Without Shakthi (divine female power),
Shiva is merely an empty shell!
Hey, without Shakthi,
Shiva is merely an empty shell!
Male: Without the body of Shiva,
Where would Shakthi find a home?
Female: Why all this useless swagger?
Go find a job instead!
Don't take a woman lightly,
Don't you dare think so, my king!
Without asafoetida, no rasam
Will ever smell fragrant!
Even the Earth is a woman,
Every blossom belongs to womankind!
In the great city of Madurai,
It was Meenakshi who transformed Lord Shiva into Sokkan!
