Jesus, you speak,
Even to those who mock you,
You speak only peace.
Jesus, you speak,
Even to those who mock you,
You speak only peace...
To wipe away the tears of the suffering,
Even to the forces of evil,
You speak of peace.
To us, the lost sheep,
Who tremble in deep distress,
Like a guiding lighthouse,
O Lord, you speak with mercy.
We plead and worship you,
We embrace you like a healing balm.
O Jesus, the Lord who protects us!
Jesus, you speak,
Even to those who mock you,
You speak only peace...
Jesus, you speak,
Even to those who mock you,
You speak only peace...
When dark clouds gather,
Just as the sky pours down rain,
When sorrow surrounds us,
God will protect and bless us.
In moments of victory,
The pride that rises,
Turns into arrogance and ruins everything.
In moments of prayer,
The inner wisdom that arises,
Joins our strength and blossoms like a flower.
Through every trial,
In every achievement,
Even if the times change,
Even if death comes searching,
Kneel down like a gentle flower,
Before the cross.
Jesus, you speak,
Even to those who mock you,
You speak only peace...

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This soulful track from the movie 'Teenz' is a devotional prayer invoking Jesus Christ to bestow grace, peace, and love, even upon those who revile or oppose Him. It portrays Jesus as a merciful shepherd to lost souls, a beacon light in times of dark distress, and a healing medicine for human suffering. The lyrics contrast worldly arrogance with divine spiritual wisdom—showing how pride in victory leads to destruction, while prayer cultivates inner wisdom and flourishing ability. The song delivers a message of unconditional forgiveness and total surrender at the Cross, encouraging believers to bow in prayer through life's trials, triumphs, changing times, and ultimate mortality.

Writing craft

Poetic devices

Pun / Wordplay (Sledai)

“Yaesuvae nee pesuvae / Unnai yaesuvoridamum”

Clever Tamil wordplay linking the name 'Yaesu' (Jesus) with the Tamil root verb 'yaesu' (meaning to scold, abuse, or revile).

Metaphor (Uruvagam)

“Kalangarai vilakkamaai”

Metaphorically addresses Jesus as a 'lighthouse' guiding lost sheep through dark times.

Simile (Uvamai)

“Megam soozhnthidumpothu / Vaanam neerpathai polae”

Compares God's protective grace during human sorrow to the sky shedding rain when clouds gather.

Monai (Initial Rhyme)

“Jeyiththidum pozhuthil / Jebiththidum pozhuthil”

Alliteration/initial sound matching on the starting syllable 'Je-' across contrasting lines.

Ethugai (Second-Letter Rhyme)

“Kaalamae maarinum / Kaalanae thediyum”

The second consonant sound 'la' is repeated in consecutive lines ('Kaalamae' and 'Kaalanae').

Trivia

Written by multi-faceted filmmaker-lyricist Radhakrishnan Parthiban for his film 'Teenz' (2024), the song's opening line famously plays on the homonym of Jesus' name with the Tamil word for reviling/scolding ('yaesu'). Music director D. Imman composed the score, brought to life through the vocals of singer Nithyashree Venkataramanan.
