Viruman’s Vaanam Kidukidunga Lyrics (with English Translation)
Seppu Selaiyazhagan E Singa Vacha Pallazhagan
Handsome like a divine bronze statue, You are a dashing lion.
Aanil Azhaganadi Arasalum Vamsamadi
A stunner of a man! The king of this land!
Selambu Eduththu Suththunakka Kaththukkumthan Verkkumadi
Once he starts spinning even the wind starts sweating.
Vanam Kidukidunga Vaigai Nadhi Nadudnadunga
The skies shiver… The rivers quiver…
Vadi Vasal Kalai Pola Varan Viruman
Here comes Viruman like a Jallikattu bull, breaking barriers.
Ettu Nadum Vedi Vedikka Edhiri Ellam Pada Padakka
Fireworks across the fields… Enemies take to their heels…
Enga Manam Kakka Vanthan Intha Paraman

Adida Idi Muzhanga Hey Hey Hey
His blows are lightning bolts…
Edhiri Kala Kalanga Hey Hey Hey
Enemies turn into dolts…

His blows are lightning bolts and turn enemies into dolts.
Pasam Rosham Rendaiyum Kondada Varanda
Here he comes to celebrate love and rage.
Viruman Manam Mattumthan Peru Soththu
