A R Rahman – Bigil: Singappenney Lyrics In English (Translation)

Maadhare… Maadhare…

Mother… Mother… (My kith & kin forever)

Vaalaagum Keeralgal Thunivodu
Paadhangal Thimirodu
Seerungul Vaarungal Vaarungal
Bhoomiyin Kolangal Idhu Ungal

Your scars as tail leave a confident trail With temerity in every step you travel
Come out of your den Roar to awaken everyone

Kaalam Inimel Ulagam Paarka Pogudhu
Manidhiyin Veerangal

Time is now witnessing the world,
The valor of humanity.

Singapenney Singapenney!
Aaniname Unnai Vanangume

Lion-queen bold, Girl with guts and grit, behold!
Entire male clan will salute you and uphold

Nandri Kadan Theerpadharke
Karuvile Unnai Yendhume

In the womb, every man will cherish you
To settle his debt of gratitude

Orumurai Thalai Kuni
Un Vetri Singa Mugam Avan
Paarpadakku Mattume

Bow your head once, I request
Only so that he can see and reflect
Your lioness face he will respect

Yeru Yeru Yeru Nenjil
Valimai Kondu Yeru
Unnai Pen Endru Keli Seidha
Kootam Oru Naal
Unnai Vanangidum Uyarndhu Nillu

Climb to the top of the ladder With courage in your heart, shine to soar
Those who ridiculed you as a mere female will eat their words 1 day; its due
They will place you on a pedestal Hold your head high, girl!

Annai Thangal Manaivi Endru
Nee Vaditha Viyarvai Undhan
Paadhaikkul Pattrum Andha
Theeyai Anaikum
Nee Bhayam Indri Thunindhu Sellu

Your role as mother, sister, wife Your drops of sweat, tears and strife
Will douse the throes of fire in your life’s sphere
With a spring walk ahead Let fear not scare you instead

Unnaale Mudiyaadhendru
Oore Sollum Nambaadhe
Paridhaabam Kaattum Endha
Vargathodum Inayaadhe
Ulagathin Vali Ellaam
Vandhaal Enna Un Munne
Prasavathin Valiyai Thaanda Pirandha

Don’t even give it a thought when the world says you cannot
Don’t join any clan or community waiting to drown you in waves of pity
So what if you face again and again world’s worst pangs of pain
O fire’s wing, you were blessed at birth to bear the pain; deliver babies to earth
Like the phoenix, rise from the ash We will rock the world in a flash

Agni Sirage Ezhundu Vaa
Ulaga Asaipom
Uyarndhu Vaa (Vaa Vaa)
Agni Sirage Ezhundu Vaa
Un Olividum Kanaavai Serpom Vaa
Adhu Sagadhiyil Vizhaamal Paarpom Vaa

Come, rise to shine, from your torment
Fiery wings of fire from confinement Rise to shine; it is imminent
We will merge without ire all the dreams you aspire
Ensure they don’t fall into mud & mire

Yeru Yeru Yeru Nenjil
Valimai Kondu Yeru
Unnai Pen Endru Keli
Seidha Kooam Oru Naal
Unnai Vanangidum Uyarndhu Nillu

Climb to the topmost rung of the ladder With valor in your heart, rise higher
Those who mocked you as a mere female for sure one day will throw in the towel
Hold your head high, my dear girl

Na Na Na Na…

Idho Kaayangal Maarum Kalangaadhe
Un Thunbam Veezhum Naal Varum
Unakkaaga Neeye Udhirppaayamma
Unadhu Aatral Unarndhiduvaai

Your scars may alter but don’t despair
Your dawn is very near when your woes will disappear
For U in you to realize
The sun in you will rise
The full potential within you you’ll understand anew

Vidiyal Ondrai Koovi Yetruvaai
Vidiyal Ondrai Koovi Yetruvaai

You will play for your nation Embrace dawn’s rays with devotion
