Devara: Part 1 Movie’s Ayudha Pooja Lyrics Translated in English
Errati Sandram Egisipade, Hatler Itler Adiripade Horu
The red sea swells up and gets boisterous with a roar.
Ranadheerula Pandaga Nedu
The land warriors celebrate their valor today.
Hey Katthula Netthuta Alala Tade
Uppena Bettuga Ulikipade Joru
Mana Jattuga Adenu Soodu
The waves of blood from clanging swords pounce like tempests off our legion.
Hey Uppu Kaale Nippullo Segaletthe
Hey, the salty air has turned burning hot.
Hey Dappu Mothala Dikkullo Velugetthe
Hey, in the directions where drums beat. Light emerges…
Puli Biddala Ontlo Poonakame Moolaketthe
The heirs of the tiger sway as if they are possessed, as the rebellious land rises in rebellion.
Ooru Gatte Atta Kulashakti Shivametthe
The collective strength of the village, like Shiva himself, rises.
Haila Haila Hayyara Aayudha Pooja Cheyyala
Heigh la re heigh la, today is the day to worship the weapons we wield.
Jathara Jaragalaa Jarupukovala Jathara
Let us tap our shoulders and celebrate the fair.
Virodhi Veerula Jathi Tiragala Udku Rakthala
It’s the fete of warring brave hearts. Let’s make them feel welcome,
Harathuleedala Dhara Dheera Ho
With warm blood coursing through march ahead, our warrior, ho.
Haila Idi Alanati Acharame
Hai la! This is an age-old tradition.
Idi La Konasagande Apacharame
It would be disrespectful not to continue it.
Batuke Nedu Ranamaina Parivaarame
It’s a family for whom war is life.
Kadali Kaalam Saakshyame
The ocean and time are witnesses.
Mana Tallula Tyagale, Chanupalai Deeveinche
The sacrifices of our mothers bless us like breast milk.
Kanuke Ee Deham Aayudhamaai Edigindi
That’s why this body has grown into a weapon.
Tala Vanchani Roshale, Polimeralu Saadhinche
Self-esteem that refuses to surrender dictates the boundaries.
Mana Jathara Sauryam Charitaluga Veligindi
Our ancestors’ history is radiant, like a glorious history.
Eeteta Vacche Ee Roje Manakosam
Every year, this day comes for us.
Meli Tippi Meesam Manamichche Sandesam
The stroking of our moustache is our message to the world.
Haila Haila Hayyara Aayudha Pooja Cheyyala
Heigh la re heigh la, today is the day to worship the weapons we wield.
Jathara Jaragalaa Jarupukovala Jathara
Let us tap our shoulders and celebrate the fair.
Virodhi Veerula Jathi Tiragala Udku Rakthala
It’s a fete of warring brave hearts. Let’s make them feel welcome,
Harathuleedala Dhara Dheera Ho
With warm blood coursing through march ahead, our warrior, ho.

The red sea swells up and gets boisterous with a roar.

Hey Katthula Netthuta Alala Tade
Hey, the swords are bathed in the blood of waves,
Uppena Bettuga Ulikipade Joru
The tide rises like a mountain, full of vigor.
