Thu thu thuthu thuthuthu
Thuthuthuthu
Thuthuthu thuthu thuthu
Thuthu thuthu thuthu
Only after seeing you
did my testing times begin!
Because you appeared again,
sorrow has returned to my life!
Anywhere near my house,
do not ever come!
I have kept dogs,
and giving them your name,
I shout at them every single day!
Hey, the rumour that ghosts exist,
I believed it only after seeing you!
A little devil, the rebirth of a demon,
I realized it is nobody but you!
Thu thu thuthu thuthuthu
Thuthuthuthu
Thuthuthu thuthu thuthu
Thuthu thuthu thuthu
I am a golden doll,
and you are just a tin-can boy!
I am precious gold ash medicine,
and you are a rusted iron rod!
The mirror in your house
is truly pitiful!
Female: Get lost!
Male: It wails out loud in agony,
behind its peeling mercury layer!
You keep wandering behind me,
have you no self-respect at all?
Male: You are tormenting the life out of me,
have you no shame at all?
In the rice you eat every day,
do you not even add salt?
Male: Hey, do not talk too much,
I will split your head open!
You ginger-eating monkey!
Male: Get lost, you wild white pig!
Female: Get lost, you dog!
Male: Get lost, you ghost!
Female: You evil spirit!
Male: You vampire!
Female: My slipper will break on your face!
Male: Hey, I will smash your teeth!
Female: May an anaconda enter your house!
Male: May lightning strike your head!
Female: You will be totally ruined!
Male: You will never prosper in life!
Female: May you get AIDS!
Male: Me?
Someone is going to assault you!
Female: You rascal, if I pull you close...
Male: Aaaah... Oh no...
Oh, if God appears before me
and asks me to make a wish,
in a world free of this she-monster,
I will ask for a secret hiding place!
Female: That place will be doomed as well!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This iconic track from Thiruda Thirudi (2003) captures a comical and intense banter between the lead characters played by Dhanush and Chaya Singh. Instead of romantic sentimentality, the song features a hilarious duel where both characters hurl dramatic insults, absurd curses, and witty metaphors at each other.

Writing craft

Poetic devices

Metaphor

Thanga paappa naanu / Thagara dappa paiyan neeyu

The female lead contrasts herself as 'golden' with the male lead as 'rusted iron' and a 'tin can'.

Hyperbole

Un veettula anaconda vara / Un thalaila idi vizha

Wildly exaggerated humorous curses (lightning striking, anacondas entering) are used for comedic effect.

Personification

Un veettu kannadi / Romba paavamadi... Vaai vittu kadharudhadi

Attributing human crying and suffering to a inanimate mirror.
