“Gira Gira Gingiraagirey” by Ram Miriyala is from the Champion soundtrack, starring Roshan and Anaswara Rajan. Shyam Kasarla’s lyrics begin with a dry cloud flashing with color and green fields rejoicing. The song instructs listeners to “pull back all the curtains.”
The verses later point out how a rainbow is born from sunlight and how both thorns and flowers grow on one branch. The village is also described as a mother spreading her arms to protect her people. This presents community as a nurturing, secure bond.
Yerrerra Bottu Dhidhdhi Yendi Megham MerisindeA dry cloud flashed, adorned with a bright red dot
Pacchani Cheera Katti Pantasene MurisindeThe green fields, dressed in a sari, rejoiced in bloom
Paradhaale TeeseddamLet’s pull back all the curtains
Dhigi Dhigi Thaam Dhitham DhithamLet’s step to the rhythm, down to the beat
Ye Mabbu YenakaBehind which cloud
Ye Sinuku Undois a certain raindrop hiding
Yeda Raalunoand where will it fall
Ye TovvalonaOn which path
Ye Malupu Undois a certain turn waiting
Yeda Aaguno Saagunoand where will it stop or go on
Ye Yendalo Dhaagi Yedu RangulloHidden within the sunlight are seven colors
Aa Hariville Puttenu KadhaFrom which the rainbow is born, isn’t it?
Mullaina Poolaina Kommaku Poose KadhaBoth thorns and flowers bloom from the same branch, don’t they?
