Chant Muni's name...
Just try and touch Muni!
I have come all alone!
Spells and dark tricks
won't ever work under my feet!
The more you cut me down, the more I will sprout back!
I will plan carefully and wipe you out!
For all the sins you have committed,
I will pay you back with heavy interest!
Hey, come on!
Come touch me... come on, touch me!
You won't survive my blow...
Come on, try and block me!
Where is it... try and stop me! Hoo...
The one who protects is Muni!
The one who strikes is Muni!
Right before your eyes, performing daring feats,
that is Muni too!
Fingers sharp like spears,
a voice booming like thunder!
What is this... what is this?
All eight directions tremble in dread!
Even if your father, your grandfather,
all come to your aid,
your breath won't escape alive, man!
To seek my revenge...
to take your life as sacrifice, I have arrived, man!
We only came into this world to live,
but you set our lives ablaze!
A gentle flock of butterflies,
you slaughtered them and piled them high!
Bloodthirsty ghouls roam freely,
cunning foxes dance with glee,
injustice runs wild,
and pure filth takes over the field!
In this cosmos of many realms,
and across those realms, countless mortal bodies,
avenge the wrong without any fear!
Hara Hara Hara Hara Hara!
Hey, a raging fire
fused into one mighty form!
Just one look is enough to melt solid rock!
Smashing into you again and again,
I will destroy you completely!
Come at me, you fool!
Just try and touch Muni!
I have come all alone!
Spells and dark tricks
won't ever work under my feet!
The more you cut me down, the more I will sprout back!
I will plan carefully and wipe you out!
For all the sins you have committed,
I will pay you back with heavy interest!
Hey, come on!
Come touch me... come on, touch me!
You won't survive my blow...
Come on, try and block me!
Where is it... try and stop me! Hoo...
Without killing you...
I will not let you go...
You slaughtered my entire clan!
You wiped them out of existence...
and robbed me of everything I had, man!
The giant gong chimes out loud,
the tempest swirls around the ritual pot,
even the mountain quakes and shakes,
the raging tusker stamps the ground,
a single seed spreads its branches,
the battle catches blazing fire,
and the heavens above tremble in fear!
Hara Hara Hara Hara Hara Hara!
Hey... for all the evil in this world,
your death will serve as a lesson!
Rolling you over and thrashing you down,
I will slaughter you, come on!
Chant Muni's name...
Just try and touch Muni!
I have come all alone!
Spells and dark tricks
won't ever work under my feet!
The more you cut me down, the more I will sprout back!
I will plan carefully and wipe you out!
For all the sins you have committed,
I will pay you back with heavy interest!
Hey, come on!
Come touch me... come on, touch me!
You won't survive my blow...
Come on, try and block me!
Where is it... try and stop me! Hoo...
The one who protects is Muni!
The one who strikes is Muni!
Right before your eyes, performing daring feats,
that is Muni too!
Fingers sharp like spears,
a voice booming like thunder!
What is this... what is this?
All eight directions tremble in dread!
Even if your father, your grandfather,
all come to your aid,
your breath won't escape alive, man!
To seek my revenge...
to take your life as sacrifice, I have arrived, man!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Sandimuni' (also known as 'Muni Song') from Kanchana 2 serves as a fiery, intense theme song celebrating the vengeful guardian spirit / deity Muni. The lyrics evoke the fierce manifestations of Muni (such as Sudalamuni, Karuppumuni, and Mahamuni) from Tamil folk deity tradition, portraying an unstoppable force driven by retribution. The spirit confronts evil perpetrators who destroyed innocent lives (metaphorically described as slaughtering a flock of butterflies) and promises to exact severe justice with interest. Through intense imagery—fingers like spears, thunderous voice, shuddering mountains, and raging fire—the song emphasizes that no black magic, mantras, or powerful lineage can save the wrongdoers from divine wrath. It is a triumphant chant of cosmic vengeance where righteousness ultimately crushes injustice.
