Rahul Nambiar | Renjith Unni • From “Parundhagadhu Oor Kuruvi”
Madhayaanai Kootam Lyrics Translation – Parundhagadhu Oor Kuruvi Soundtrack
Vithakar compares intruders to foxes digging pits, met by tigers striking back. Lyrics assert that even village sparrows gain eagle-like strength within their group.
Madha Madha Madha MalamadhaRaging, raging, in a frenzied madness.
Yanai Kootamo AtamoIs it a herd of elephants, or is it a dance?
Adi Manasula KadeDeep in its heart, the forest is our own garden.
Sondha ThottamoIs it our private grove?
Sada Sada Sada SadaCrackling, hissing, and sputtering.
Kattu Theeyum Mulamo NeelumoWill this wildfire grow and spread?
Anaithida Verum KaigalTo put it out, are our bare hands enough?
Mattum PodhumoWill they really be enough?
Rajaliyai NeeludheLike a ‘Rajali’ hawk, it circles high.
Vattam Nadu KattukulleCircling right in the heart of the jungle.
Bedhayin Nenjikul AchamFear grows inside the hunter’s chest.
Asarathada Kaiviral PathumDon’t you dare underestimate these ten fingers.
Valai KuthumThey’ll pierce right through your net.
Dheeradhi Dheeran NaneI’m the bravest of the brave.
Sooradhi Sooran NaneI’m the mightiest of the mighty.
Kadu Alum Kadan NaneI’m the force that rules this forest.
Hoo OoHoo, oo.
Madha Madha Madha MalamadhaRaging, raging, in a frenzied madness.
Yanai Kootamo AtamoIs it a herd of elephants, or is it a dance?
Adi Manasula KadeDeep in its heart, the forest is our own garden.
Sondha ThottamoIs it our private grove?
Sada Sada Sada SadaCrackling, hissing, and sputtering.
Kattu Theeyum Mulamo NeelumoWill this wildfire grow and spread?
Anaithida Verum KaigalTo put it out, are our bare hands enough?
Mattum PodhumooWill they really be enough?
Kade Enga RaththamThis forest is our very blood.
Vetta Patha ModhumIf you try to hunt here, you’ll face a fight.
Kathum Kaval Kathu NikkumThe roaring guard stands watch to protect.
Aatam Kattunga KootamLet the performance begin, team!
Vida Mattom ThambiWe won’t give up, little brother.
Kottam AdangattumLet their arrogance be crushed.
Nari Vandhu Kuzhi ParichaIf a fox comes and digs a pit,
Puli Vandhu Pugundhu AdikkumA tiger will break in and strike it down.
Vettayil AdichadhellamEverything struck down in the hunt,
Kattuke Iraiyum AgumBecomes a meal for the forest itself.
Sillvandin Saththam SeerattumLet the cicada’s song roar.
Oor Kuruviyum Parundhai MariEven a village sparrow becomes a hawk,
Aattam Kattum KootamoIs this a herd that puts on such a show?
Dheeradhi Dheeran NaneI’m the bravest of the brave.
Sooradhi Sooran NaneI’m the mightiest of the mighty.
Kadu Alum Kadan NaneI’m the force that rules this forest.
Hoo OoHoo, oo.
