• Little sparks joining together become a burning torch
Echoing the breaking of chains proclaiming our rights
The evils that conspired against our society are fleeing in fear
The Vidiyal Child Rights Movement sings the song of the triumph
• Little hands together build our forums
Bravely we laid the foundation to break the chains of slavery
We claimed our rights like a sweeping storm
We are bound together to break the barriers and to burn ignorance
• Little aerial roots we make and spread massively
Our thunderous drum beats spread the message of child rights
We are ready to catchy the sun in our hands
We have erected our rights flag through our liberation
