துன்பபட்டோரின் துயர் துடைக்க
சாத்தான்களிடமும்
சமாதானம் பேசவே
To wipe away the tears of the suffering,
Even to the demons,
Speak peace.
வழி தவறிய ஆடுகளை
கலங்கி தவிக்கும் எங்களிடம்
கலங்கரை விளக்கமாய்
கருணை பேசிடும் ஆண்டவரே
To the sheep that have lost their way,
To us who are distressed and suffering,
Like a guiding lighthouse,
Oh Lord who speaks with mercy,
மன்றாடி உன்னை பூசிக்கிறோம்
மருந்தாய் உன்னையே பூசிக்கிறோம்
காத்திடும் கர்த்தரே ஏசுவே

மேகம் சூழ்ந்திடும்போது
வானம் நீர்பதை போலே
சோகம் சூழ்ந்திடும்போது
தேவன் காத்தருள்வாரே
When clouds gather around,
Just as the sky sheds water,
When sorrow surrounds us,
God will protect and bless us.
ஜெயித்திடும் பொழுதில்
வரும் அகங்காரம்
திமிறதும் கூடி பாழாகும்
At the moment of victory,
The arrogance that arises,
Combined with pride, will lead to ruin.
ஜெபித்திடும் பொழுதில்
வரும் அக ஞானம்
திறனதும் கூடி பூவாகும்
At the moment of prayer,
The inner wisdom that arises,
Combined with capability, will bloom like a flower.
சோதனையாவிலும்
சாதனையாயினும்
காலமே மாறினும்
காலனே தேடியும்
மண்டியிடு மலராய்
சிலுவையிலே
In times of trial,
Or in times of achievement,
Even if time changes,
Even if Death comes searching,
Kneel like a flower,
At the cross.
ஏசுவே நீ பேசுவே
உன்னை எசுவோரிடமும்
சாந்தியே பேசுவே...ஏ....ஏ....

Beyond the translation
Song interpretation
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.

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.
