Handsome man as finely sculpted as a bronze statue... hey...
Handsome man with lion-carved teeth
He is the most handsome among men, my friend
He belongs to a ruling royal lineage, my friend
If he twirls and spins the silambam staff
Even the wind will break into a sweat, my friend
...
Let the sky rattle and rumble
Let the river Vaigai tremble to its core
Like a bull charging out from the arena gate
Here comes Viruman
As firecrackers burst across eight directions
As all the enemies tremble in fear
This supreme hero came to protect our honor
Strike the drums like the roar of thunder
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Male: Let the enemies be shaken and rattled
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Strike the drums like the roar of thunder
Let the enemies be shaken and rattled
Both deep affection and fierce pride
He is coming to celebrate them
For Viruman, honor alone is the greatest wealth
Provoke it, and blows will rain in clusters
For Viruman, honor alone is the greatest wealth
Provoke it, and blows will rain in clusters
Let the sky rattle and rumble
Let the river Vaigai tremble to its core
Like a bull charging out from the arena gate
Here comes Viruman
As firecrackers burst across eight directions
As all the enemies tremble in fear
This supreme hero came to protect our honor
...
...
Clap in Kummi dance and offer incense
Look at the rich Samba paddy field standing ripe
A land that lived without ever refusing anyone
Feed the hungry stomachs
From back then, stretching to the ancient Kumari continent
That is our ancestral land
All those who ruled the southern land
Belonged to our Tamil race
We are a lineage that knows no fear
We are a generation that never forgets its roots
When Viruman walks, it turns into a grand procession
Even a fierce leopard would catch a fever in awe
Our mother's womb itself
Is our battlefield
Even grandmother's heavy ear ornaments
Are like atom bombs here
This sacred green herb of Maasi
This small decorated pot
Are symbols that we have preserved and protected
As our very identity
If you listen to this history
Even the old woman of Paappampatti with her ear studs
Will speak of heritage higher than Keezhadi
Let the sky rattle and rumble
Let the river Vaigai tremble to its core
Like a bull charging out from the arena gate
Here comes Viruman
As firecrackers burst across eight directions
As all the enemies tremble in fear
This supreme hero came to protect our honor
Strike the drums like the roar of thunder
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Male: Let the enemies be shaken and rattled
Chorus: Hey hey hey
Strike the drums like the roar of thunder
Let the enemies be shaken and rattled
Both deep affection and fierce pride
He is coming to celebrate them
For Viruman, honor alone is the greatest wealth
Provoke it, and blows will rain in clusters
For Viruman, honor alone is the greatest wealth
Provoke it, and blows will rain in clusters

Hyperbole (Uravanai / Utpreksha)

Selambu eduththu suththunaakka / Kaaththukkumthaan verkkumadi

Metaphor (Uruvagam)

Appaththaa thandattiyum / Inga anugundudaa

Metaphorically equates the traditional heavy gold ear ornament worn by rural Tamil grandmothers (Thandatti) to an atomic bomb, symbolizing explosive regional pride.

Alliteration (Moonaai / Ethukai)

Vaanam kidukidunga / Vaigai nadhi nadudnadunga / Vaadi vaasal kaalai pola / Vaaraan viruman

Uses the repeating initial 'Vaa' sound to create strong rhythmic cadence matching folk drumbeats.
