Rangabali’s Mana Oorilo Evadra Apedhi Lyrics Translation
The lyrics elevate this hero above national figures, claiming even a Prime Minister needs his permission to enter town. Another line contrasts the discomfort of seeking respect outside with the pride of being known at home. This comparison forms the song’s main argument.
