Our hero took the step at the age of sixteen, not stopping his journey halfway.
Hasn’t this war of rights ignited the soul,
We swear that it will not fade away.
Goddess of freedom!
We have served you, these deer that have not removed their hair,
If the time comes to remove them, they will certainly not live.
A promise to the stars,
A promise to this land,
A promise to the leader who will endure,
A promise to the maveerar
Our country is brave.
Our tongues will no longer lick the feet of those who are submissive.
Come, you who come to speak, your garland.
You who aim to throw bombs, come, you will die.
– Pudhuvai Ratnathurai.
