______________________________________________________
Naan Varuven
Meendum Varuven
Uninai naan thodarven
[I shall come back..
I shall come back again
I shall follow you]

Oru pillai ezhudhum kirukal dhan vaazhkaiyo
adhil artham thedi alaivathe vetkaiya
[Is life nothing but the scribblings of an infant..
Is learning the meaning of it, the quest of life?]

Artham puriyum pothu vazhuvu maaruthe
Vazhvu maarum pothu artham maaruthe
[Life changes when we understand its meaning, and
the meaning changes as our life changes]

Oru kanavu kaatril midhakuthe
athu mithandhu konde sirikuthe
[A dream still floats in the air..
and it smiles at me as it floats]

Oru pillai ezhudhum kirukal dhan vaazhkaiyo

adhil artham thedi alaivathe vetkaiya

[Is life nothing but the scribblings of an infant..

Is learning the meaning of it, the quest of life?]

Naan Varuven

Meendum Varuven

Unai naan thodarven

[I shall come back..

I shall come back again

I shall follow you]

Maazha Kodupaalo Eedi Idipaalo Maayamaai Povalo

Oh.. Kaatuchirukki Kaatuchirukki Yaar Katuchirukki Iva

Maazha Kodupaalo Eedi Idipaalo Maayamaai Povalo

[Who is this lady in the forest?

Will she give me rain, or thunder or just magically vanish?]

Eeki Minnal Aadikudadi.. Yaathey

Eera Kola Thudikuthadi.. Yaathey

Eeki Minnal Aadikudadi.. Yaathey

[It is thundering outside and

the wet porch is beckoning]

Aava Nethiyil Vacha Pottula En Nenjankuzhiyae Ottuthey

Aava Paarvayil Ellumbuga Palpodiyaachey

[The sinful mind yearns for the girl

The bindhi in her forehead has stuck to my heart

A glance by her crushes my bones]

[The universe vanished when the girl with a flower on her head lay down

The open sky gasps looking at hear face]

Paaran Kalla Sommanthu Vazhi Maranthu Oru Naththa Kutti Nagaruthadi

Kondai Kaalu Chevappum Mooku Vanappum Enna Kirukkunu Sirikuthadi

[My mind wanders through the middle partition in your head..

My life struggles after falling into the shallow of your lips

The mind is hungry and wants to break its fasting

A snail looses its path and wanders around carrying a huge rock

The redish toe and her beautiful nose think that I’m crazy]

Kaatuchirukki Kaatuchirukki Yaar Katuchirukki Iva

Maazha Kodupaalo Eedi Idipaalo Maayamaai Povalo

Yaaro Evalo Yaaro Evalo Yaarkattu Chirukki Iva

The open sky gasps looking at hear face]

Aaer Kizhicha Thadaththu Vazhi

Neer Kizhuchu Povathupoal

[Like the water flowing through an irrigated land

My life extends through the line that you drew]

Ooraan Kaatu Kaniyae, Unna Nenachu Nenju Sappu Kotti Thudikuthadi..

Yaathey Ithu Seriya Illa Thavara Nenjil Kaththi Chandai Nadakuthadi

Unna Munna Niruthi Enna Nadaththi, Ketta Vithivanthu Sirukuthadi

[I long for you.. Oh sweet fruit from the neighbours farm..

There is a fight inside my heart on whether this is right or wrong

My fate laughs by making me walk into your path]

Oaah.. Kaatuchirukki Kaatuchirukki

Oaah.. Kaatuchirukki Kaatuchirukki Yaar Katuchirukki Iva

Maazha Kodupaalo Eedi Idipaalo Maayamaai Povalo

Kaatuchirukki Kaatuchirukki Yaar Katuchirukki Iva

[Chop them if they draw a line

Break it when they draw a fence

Until yesterday the law was in your hands.. from today it will be ours]

Kodu Poata.. Konnu Podu..

Vaeli Poata.. Hey Vetti Podu..

Villa Pola Valanja Kootam

Vaela Potta Nimirnthu Vittoam

[Chop them if they draw a line

Break it when they draw a fence

We were bending down like a bow

Now we will stand straight like an arrow]

Paatan Bootan Boomiya Yaarum Patta Poda Koodathu

[If they ask for a share of your food.. put the plates

If they ask for a share of your fortune.. break their head

The land will never bow down to the rules of its neighbours

The sky will not listen when the cloud comes and makes noise

No one can take away the land of our ancestors]

Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey

[We belong to a race that tames a snake and gives it cow’s milk

Try doing a wrong, and you will know our other side

We are warriors born in the jungles

In a bull fight, the intestine that hangs out is our garland

The only fortune that an old man left behind is bravery]

[Our air will smell of fried fish

Our stream water will give you the kick of a country liqor

A married man will live a barren life

A cactus plant does not require rain

No one becomes poor by loosing a penny

If our pride goes, you lose everything

Our land is as much our pride as our women

If you dig the forest, even the red sands are our blood]
