Good Bad Ugly Movie’s Ranagalam Lyrics [English Meaning]
Ey mirugaththa eluppi
If you rouse the beast within,
Kobaththa kelappi
Its fury will shake the world.
Mannippu ketta kidaikaathe
Plead all you want—mercy won’t come.
Mudinchathu kannaku
What’s done is settled; there’s no going back.
Thevasam unnaku
This is your last chance.
Raanuvam vanthum thadukkathe
Even a whole army couldn’t hold him back.
Vaththikkuchi paththikichi odikka
He’s sparked—run before you burn.
Ranagallathula kudukkura kuduppa
In the war zone, he tears everything apart.
Nee good’u nu nenaikura
You believe you’re the righteous one?
Innoru mugam varum bad
Wait till the darker face shows.
Pala edaththula sarithiram padaichavan
He’s etched stories across lands.
Sethukkuna nodiyila setharuthu motha world
In a blink, he could crush the entire world.
Yeman ivan kulla irukkura varaiyila
What lives in him is darker than death.
Evannukku mudivunu therinchikka vazhi irukka?
Can anyone guess where or how he’ll end?
Ivan parakkura dhisaiila theriyira
You won’t know the path he flies.
Edhiriya mudichittu mannavan pol sirippan
He finishes his enemies and grins like a sovereign.
Oru soora kaaththu eranguchuna
If his wild storm breaks loose,
Antha ooru moththam norungidum da
That place will fall into pieces.
Nera ninnu morachavan la
He stands firm, faces it all head-on.
Mandiya pottidu mannippu kettidu
Strikes you down—no apologies, no second thoughts.
Yenna ivan varalaara
Why hasn’t his story been carved in stone?
Paathu nadungura aal pola
He makes you shiver at just a glance.
Neena vanthu sikkaatha
You got close but couldn’t hold on.
Aasaiyu mudinchidum
Desire dies out.
Aayusu mudinchidum
So does life.
Thoda mudiyuma oro oththi po
Can you really survive each burn he gives?
Vaththikkuchi enna paakum pothe paththikkum
He needs no flame—just a look ignites it.
Kanna mudi ivan pera ulla nenachika
Shut your eyes, and his name still burns in your mind.
Vera vera maari saava pora nu tha purinchika
Know this—you won’t die just once with him.
Chinna podusellam summave kaththatto
Even the small ones cry out in his silence.
Sikki thavikkira kootathula suththatto
He weaves through crowds that are stuck and squirming.
Singam pola ipo vettaiyaada poravana
Like a lion, he now hunts without pause.
Seendi paakanum nu aasappatta
Everyone longs to glimpse that fury.
Vaththikkuchi paththikichi odikka
He’s lit—run now or be ash.
Ranagallathula kudukkura kuduppa
He doesn’t fight—he devours.
Nee good’u nu nenaikura
You still think you’re the noble one?
Innoru mugam varum bad
Wait till you face what hides behind that mask.
Pala edaththula sarithiram padaichavan
He’s left his mark in many places.
Sethukkuna nodiyila setharuthu motha world
One misstep, and he’ll wreck the world.
Ennakku un sangathi theriyum nee moodu
I know what you are—just shut it.
Azhikkura poruppula irukkura god’u
You’re the god who walks with ruin.
Niththam yuththam nadaththida siththam kothikkuthu
His mind craves war like breath.
Thappikka vazhi illa odu
There’s no way out—just run.
Ey mirugaththa eluppi
If you dare wake the beast,
Kobaththa kelappi
His wrath will shake your soul.
Vaththikkuchi enna paakkum pothe paththikkum
A single look from him will set everything ablaze.
Mannippu ketta kidaikaathe
Don’t ask for forgiveness—you’ll get none.
Vera vera maari saava pora nu tha purinchika
He’ll end you in ways you can’t even imagine.

Your judgment has arrived.
