Vethala Potta Lyrics Translation – Amaran Soundtrack
Piraisoodan writes about a local tough guy who lands a punch on a nose while chewing betel leaf, then watches soda bottles fly whenever his name echoes. The verses mix vivid images of blood, a curved dagger and a crowd that clears out as Amaran stands tall.
Pottale ViruvirukkumWhen you chew it, it’s a total rush.
Zardha PanIt’s that ‘Zarda pan’ (tobacco-laced betel leaf).
Amaran Gana Pata KetaleJust hearing Amaran’s Gana song,
GirugirukkumWill make your head spin round.
MachiiHey buddy!
Na Vethala Potta ShokkulaIn the high of chewing betel leaf,
PoduDrop the beat!
Vethala Potta ShokkulaIn the rush of chewing betel leaf,
Nan Gapunnu Kuthunen MookulaI suddenly landed a punch on his nose.
Ada Vandhudhu Paru RathamAnd look at that, the blood’s flowing.
Indha Amaran Manasu SuthamBut this Amaran’s got a heart of gold.
Varavadhi ErakkamMercy is the only thing I’ve got in abundance.
Amaran Vandhu Ninna SarakkumWhen Amaran stands tall, the crowd clears out.
Amaran Pera Sonna ThaneIf you just mention Amaran’s name,
Soda Bottle Parakkum‘Soda bottles’ (street fight projectiles) start flying everywhere.

Indha Amaran Manasu SuthamBut Amaran’s soul is as pure as it gets.
Pakkiri Pichuva PakkiriA street-tough with a ‘Pichuva’ (curved dagger),
Suthuna Kathiya SuthunaI’ve swung my blade all around.
Daggulu Than Oorula Daggulu ThanThere’s chaos and trouble all through the town.
Lockuthan Policekku LockuthanThe police have finally met their match.
