நறுக்காவா நொறுக்கவா
நர நரம்புகள் புடைக்கவா
தணிக்கவா தெறிக்கவா
தர தரவென இழுக்கவா
Shall I chop? Shall I crush?
Shall I make grey nerves bulge?
Shall I quench? Shall I shatter into pieces?
Shall I drag forcefully across the ground?
பகியை அழிக்கவே
படையினை திரட்டிவா
புருவங்கள் புடைக்கவே
புழுதி பறக்க புலியும் நடக்க
Shall I destroy the enmity?
Shall I gather an army?
As eyebrows furrow with anger
As dust flies in the air
As the tiger walks
எறங்குற எறங்குற எறங்குற
எதித்து வா
எதிரிகள் பதைபதைத்திட
முதல் அடி கொடுக்கவா
Step into the arena, step down!
Come, confront me!
To make enemies tremble in panic
Shall I deliver the first blow?
நா சினற சினற
நே சிதறி கெடப்ப
போர் தொடர தொடர
நீ தரையில் கெட்டப்ப
As I rage furiously
You will lie there crushed and dead
As the battle continues
You will lie flat on the ground
பொருத்திருந்த காலம் கனிய
வருது இப்போ நேரம் சினர
சினர சினர சினர…
சினர சினர
As the waited time ripens
Now comes the time to rage
Raging, raging, raging
Raging, raging...

வரவா உரு உரு குலைத்திட
தரவா தல தல தெறிச்சிடா
தனியா எரிமலையா
தனியா வரேன் இருடா
பொறுடா இருடா
Shall I come to shatter your form?
Shall I give blows to make heads explode?
Like a solitary volcano
I come alone
Wait man, strike man, wait man!

Scuffle and fistfight!
From now it is raw combat, the one who takes hits
Retaliation blow, retaliation blow
Delivered by both hands
The first strike
சினர சிறு வெறி பிறக்குது
சினர பெரும் பொறி பறக்குது
சினர சிறு வெறி பிறக்குது
சினர தலை படை தெறிக்குது
