Paiya Dei Lyrics English Translation – Asal Kolaar
Friends, Sondhakaaran, Pakkathu Veetukaaran Ellam
Friends,relatives and the neighbors
Enna Intha Paiyan Ippadi Panndhu Paaren..Nu
They say, “What on earth is this guy doing?
Kaluvi Kaluvi Oothnaalum, Porali Ellam Nambunaalum
No matter how much they curse and spread rumours,
Maja Panniten Nu Sonna Athu Maja Thaana
If they say you’re being dope,
Avanga Yen Apdi Solranga..Nu Enakku Theriyum
isn’t that really dope? I know why they talk like that,
Yenna Ella Neramum Kai Koodaathu Nenacha Kaariyam
because everything doesn’t always go as planned.
Yedhu Vandhalum *Tha Paathukalam..Ndra Thairiyam
Whatever happens, have the courage to say`tha pathukalam’,
Vitutu Ponatha Nenachu Feel Panradhu Nera Verayam
Feeling sad about what’s already gone is a time waste.
Kuninja Kuththum Ooruku Nenja Nimithi Kaatu..Nu
“Stand tall before a society that stabs you when you’re down”
Sonnaru Da Poet Dhanush The Great..U
said poet’u Dhanush the great!
Logic..Eh Illama Parapuraanunga Hate..U
but people keep spreading hate illogically.
Appadina Mama Thaanda Aduthu Andrew Tate..U
If so, am i the next Andrew Tate?
Hate..U Parapuradhaa Internet Kalachaaram?…Dai
Spreading hate online is the new internet culture?
Antha Polapukku Nee Pannalam Da Vibacharam
Honestly, prostitution would be a better hobby!
Azhukku Kai..Ah Vechu Aayiram Peru Marachaalum
Even if a thousand people hide it with dirty hands,
Sooriyan Thirumba Varum Saaindhiram Adhu Maranjaalum
The sun will still rise after settling down in the evening.
Dai..Avan Enga..Nu Theriyum..Ah Da Paiya Dai
Hey, Do you even know where this guy comes from?
Nee Paatunu Yedho Onna Pesaadha Da Paiya Dai
You talk like you know something, don’t say a word.
Ayyo Avana Oru Modamuttu Paiya Dai
Oh man, he’s such a notorious guy, isn’t he?
Vera Yaaru Athu Naan Thaan Antha Paiyan Dai
That’s no one else—it’s me, I’m that guy!
Yaarra Antha Paiyan, Naan Thaan Antha Paiyan
Who’s that guy?; I’m that guy!
Dai Yaarra Antha Paiyan, Dei Naan Thaan Antha Paiyan
Who’s that guy?; I’m that guy!
Adichu Anju Vayasula Azhuvurathu Waste..U Nu,
At five, they gave me beatings,
Puriyavechutaanga Apdi Thaan Maama Strong Aanen,
and made me realize that crying is a waste, which is how I became strong.
Uncomfortable Situation Thaan, Nalla Maturity..Ah Uruvaaki Buddhi Kodukum (Athaana)
Uncomfortable situations will shape your maturity – and wisdom, am i right?
Kalavum Katru Ethum Soodhu Vaadhu Therinjikiddhu
Even from stealing, you learn tricks and strategies,
Aana Life..La Innum Paaka Vendiyathu Neraya Ikkudhu
but there’s so much more to experience in life.
Siladhu Munneranum..Nu Muthugu..Laye Kuthinu Ikkudhu
Few backstab you to get bigger,
Siladhu Munnerna Odane, Kathinu Ikkudhunga Vayuru Erinjinu
few get stomach burn from those who are already bigger.
Edthunu Varava Fire Engine.
Should i bring a fire engine?!
U Paakadha Da Maranju
don’t hide and see,
Fake ID Sivaranjni Underscore..U Pathinanju
Like a fake ID “Sivaranjini underscore 15”.
Illegal Ah Nozhanju Attuliyam Panravane
to those who give illegal entry, and cause problems,
Attack Panni Thoratha Vantha Donald Trump
Ill attack and chase them out, like Donald Trump!
Pola Asal Kolaar, Chikkom, Yelra, Teasta
`Asal Kolaar – Chikkom, Yelra, Teasta’.
Naan Bore Adicha Engappa Boat-La Round Adippan Coast Ah
If I get bored, I’ll go around in my dad’s boat along the coast.
Naan Kuala Lumpur Ponalum Pesuven Tondiarpettai Baashai
Even if I go to Kuala Lumpur, I’ll still speak thandaiyarpetta slang.
Anga Naashta Thinnum Dosai Podum Hoes A
I’ll eat local food there, like dosa, and also some h*es.
Nee Cbi La Complaint Kudutha Upi’la Panatha Adippen

Who’s that guy?; I’m that guy!
