விழுவதும் எழுவதும்
தானடா வாழ்கையே
எழும்வரை இதயத்தில்
வேண்டுமே வேட்கையே
Falling and rising,
Is indeed what life is, my friend.
Until you rise, within your heart,
There must be an intense fire!
வழித்துணையாய் இவள் நேசம்தான்
போதும் போதுமே
விழிகளின் ஓரத்து ஈரங்கள்
காய்ந்து போகுமே
Her love alone as a companion on the journey
Is more than enough.
The moisture at the corners of your eyes
Will dry away completely.
உறங்கிட ஒரு மடி இருக்கிறது
என்றுமே
உனக்கென அனுதினம் துடிக்கிறது
நெஞ்சமே
There is a lap to sleep on,
Forever and always.
Beating for you every single day
Is this heart.
கூடையில் கூடையில்
தூவிடும் மேகம் போல
கூடவே கூடவே
தேவதை நிழல் வரும்
In the scorching summer,
Like a rain cloud showering down,
Right beside you,
An angel's shadow will accompany you.
ராத்திரி பாதையில்
வீசிடும் வெளிச்சம் போல
காதலன் காவலன்
ஆறுதல் வழி தரும்
On a dark night's path,
Like a beam of light shining through,
As a lover and a protector,
It will pave a comforting path.

எழும்வரை இதயத்தில்
வேண்டுமே வேட்கையே
Falling and rising,
Is indeed what life is, my friend.
Until you rise, within your heart,
There must be an intense fire!
எரிமலை தெறிப்பென சீறிவா
சாம்பல் ஆக்கலாம்
எதிரியின் படைகளை தீரமாய் மோதி
சாய்க்கலாம்
Charge like a spark from an erupting volcano,
We can reduce everything to ashes.
Striking the enemy's forces with determination,
We can bring them down.
சரித்திரம் முழுவதும்
ஜெயித்தவர்கள் யாரடா
தடைகளை துரும்பென
மதித்தவர்கள் தானடா
Throughout history,
Who are those who have triumphed?
Only those who treated obstacles
As mere specks of straw!
சூறையாய் மோதியே
போரிலே வாகை சூடு
ஏளனம் செய்தவர்
பார்த்திட பதில் கொடு
Strike like a raging storm,
Wear the crown of victory in battle!
To those who mocked and belittled you,
Give a resounding answer for all to see!
கைகளே ஆயுதம்
காலத்தை சொந்தம் ஆக்கு
நானிலம் தாண்டியும்
அஞ்சிட நடந்திடு
Your hands are your weapons,
Make time your own!
Even beyond all four corners of the earth,
Walk fearlessly!
விழுவதும் எழுவதும்
தானடா வாழ்கையே
எழும்வரை இதயத்தில்
வேண்டுமே வேட்கையே.....ஏ....

This motivational and emotional track centers on resilience, inner strength, and the power of love during life's struggles. The opening chorus establishes the core philosophy: life is defined by falling down and standing back up, driven by an unyielding inner passion ('vetkai'). It highlights how unconditional love and support act as a safe haven, offering comfort and light through the darkest times.
