Padavukal Anavathi Paduthittum CheruthittumEven after building and defending countless ranks,
Kanavukal Adimudi Koduthittum VedinjittumEven after sacrificing and abandoning our dreams entirely,
Marukandam Irrikana Nayide KauthiluOn the neck of the ‘dog’ sitting on the other side,
Kurukkittu Valikkana PadayudeOf the army that pulls the noose tight,
Kajjilu Pettalu Pinnoru VettalIf caught in hand, then comes another slash,
Thangoolathare Pinnoru KottaluA strike against those who try to hold on,
Mungi Thappiya Kanam PalarudeWe see the bodies of many who dove deep to search,
Chemballi Kothiya Murikandam EllukkalBones gnawed clean by the red snapper,
Pinnem Mungiya Kanam PandunjanI dove again to see what I left behind long ago,
Koythitta Swarnam Pooshiya PallukalThe gold-plated teeth that were harvested,
Eyan Melea Pokkiya KajjikalThe hands that were raised against me,
Veeshan Njammalu Mukkiya VanjikalThe boats we sank so we could cast our nets,
Cheenthan Veeshiya Chembin ValukalThe copper swords swung to tear us apart,
Choondiya Kakki Padayude ViralukalAnd the fingers pointed by the Khaki regiment.
Aazham Nokkarilla Muriyude Aazham NokkarillaWe don’t check the depth, not of the wound,
Aazham Nokkarilla Puzhayudem Aazham NokkarillaWe don’t check the depth, not even of the river.
Verum Nokkarilla Pakayude Verum NokkarillaWe don’t trace the roots, the roots of the feud,
Kopam Nokkarilla Irayude Kopam NokkarillaWe don’t fear the anger, the anger of the prey,
Kopam Nokarilla Irayude Kopam NokkarillaWe don’t fear the anger, the anger of the prey.
Manneriyan Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam MundraWe know how to hurl the earth, we know, we know, Mundra,
Konneriyan Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam MundraWe know how to kill and cast away, we know, we know, Mundra.
Cherukandam Cheriya Cherumanum ParayanundoruThe small worker from the field has a story to tell,
Quintalu Bakki Kadukal KeriyaOf the heavy loads that vanished into the woods,
Kaduvakal Kandal Undoru Kachara BakkiIf the tigers see it, only a mess will remain,
Adavukal Thandiya Kurukkanum Kandal Odum ValumEven the trickster fox runs when he sees the tail,
Thooki Cherukkan Murichitta Valukal ThappiSearching for the tails the boy cut and hung,
Nadakkana Pallikal BakiWith only the lizards left crawling.
Mattakolinu TheeranulloruFor the one destined to end by the measuring rod,
Iraye Thappi Nadakkanam KazhukanThe vulture must walk to find its carrion,
Kannum Nattatha Velli KoomanThe silver owl that hasn’t fixed its gaze,
Chattuliyenthiya Keman KajjikalThe expert hands wielding the fishing spear,
Madan Mannilu Vannu KalichonLike the deity Madan who came to play in the dust.
Aarandannoru ChodyandoIs there any question about who it is?
Varan Nokkiya KalanenkilIf Death himself tries to approach,
Mukkum Njammalu KalvariyilWe will drown him in Calvary,
Mukkum Njammalu Kal VariyilWe will drown him in the trap.
Aazham Nokkarilla Puzhayudem Aazham NokkarillaWe don’t check the depth, not even of the river,
Verum Nokkarilla Pakayude Verum NokkarillaWe don’t trace the roots, the roots of the feud,
Kopam Nokkarilla Irayude Kopam NokkarillaWe don’t fear the anger, the anger of the prey,
Kopam Nokarilla Irayude Kopam NokkarillaWe don’t fear the anger, the anger of the prey,
Manneriyan Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam MundraWe know how to hurl the earth, we know, we know, Mundra,
Konneriyan Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam Ariyam MundraWe know how to kill and cast away, we know, we know, Mundra.
