பச்சைக்குத்தி கொஞ்சி போங்க
Fear, modesty, and shyness,
You were given those printed qualities
Even the remaining leftover anger,
Tattoo it on us and pamper us
அத்தனையும் காதலுங்க
அப்படியே வாழுவோங்க
அக்கபோரா மாறும் போது
வாய கொஞ்சம் மூடிப்போங்க
All of that is love
We will live just like that
When it turns into chaos,
Just close your mouth a little bit
சொன்னா சொன்னா கேளுடா
சுத்தி முத்தி பாருடா
கஷ்டங்களை தேடி நீ
காத்திருக்க ஏனடா
Listen to what I say
Look around you, man
Searching for troubles, you
Why are you waiting, man?
கண்ண குத்திக்கிட்டு
தாடி வச்சிக்கத்தான் போரடா
காதல் கண்ணாமூச்சி
கால வாரிவிடும் போர் அடா
Poking your own eyes
You are just going to grow a beard, man
Love is hide-and-seek
It will trip you up, man

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
The song 'Shut Up Your Mouth' from 'Balloon' is a playful, high-energy track featuring a humorous dialogue between male and female perspectives on love and relationships. One side warns against falling in love at first sight, pointing out how love brings unnecessary troubles, heartbreak, and despair (growing a beard, poking one's own eyes). The opposing voice defends romance, urging partners to love unconditionally, cherish each other like deities, and simply keep quiet ('shut up') when arguments or chaos arise.
Writing craft
Poetic devices
Repetition (Anaphora / Epizeuxis)
“Shut up your mouth / Shut up pannunga”
Repeated emphasis on key phrase 'Shut up your mouth' and 'Shut up pannunga' to create a catchy, rhythmic chorus.

“Fish off…”
The phrase 'Fish off' is used as a humorous phonetic censors/euphemism for the slang phrase 'Piss off' or 'Fuck off'.

“Kandukkama pogalainga / Dhaavanikku thevathainga”
The second letters 'd' match in 'Kandukkama' and 'Dhaavanikku', following Tamil poetic sound matching traditions.
Metaphor
“Kaadhal kannamoochi / Kaala vaarividum porada”
Comparing love to a game of hide-and-seek that trips one up.
