Veettukku veedingu Sedi vaikkirom
Ezhai vargangal valaraamal Vedi vaikkirom

Palar vaada silar vaazha Iru vargam illaadha
Sama dharma poo pookkumaa Kaalam varum nalla neram varum
Ezhaigalin vaazhvil velicham varum

Vaarungal ellorum Vaazhndhaalum veezhndhaalum
Irudhi varai poraaduvom Thozhil koodamaa illai bali peedamaa

Song Meaning & Analysis

This powerful song from 'Dharma Devathai' is a scathing critique of societal injustice, corruption, and the oppression faced by the working class. It directly addresses the "symbols of shame" and "ruling classes that refuse to change," highlighting the stark contrast between the ideals of peace (white flag) and the bloody reality of conflict in people's hearts. The lyrics question the very essence of justice and equality, lamenting the daily struggles of the poor who "set the pot to boil with tears" while questioning the relevance of national symbols like Gandhi's statues in the face of such disparity. It paints a picture of a society where the growth of the poor is actively suppressed, yearning for a future where true equality can bloom.

The song further intensifies its call for justice by invoking the fierce imagery of divine feminine power, comparing the protagonist's righteous anger to that of goddesses like Maha Kali and Karumari, who are believed to protect dharma and destroy evil. It portrays the working class as a "sleeping tiger" that, once awakened, will fight relentlessly for its rights. The lyrics challenge the very nature of their existence – whether their workplaces are sites of labor or sacrifice, and whether their employers are owners or murderers. It's a rallying cry for unity and sustained struggle against exploitation, promising that a time of light and justice will eventually arrive for the oppressed.
