Kannukullae unnai vaithaen, kannamma,
Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,
Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,
Adi neethaan yen santhosham,
Poovellaam unn vaasam,
Nee paesum paechellaam,
Naan kaetkum sangeetham,
Unn punnagai naan saemikindra selvamadi,
Nee illai endraal naanum ingae ellaiyadi,
Nerungaatha maan kulangaamalae,
Ennukullae naesam kidakindrathae,
Unnai parthathum uyir thoondavae,
Uthadugal thaandi therikindrathae,
Tharisaana en nenjil vilunthaayae vithaiyaaga,
Nee anbae paarkum parvaiyilae,
Yen jeevan vaaluthadi,
Nee aatharavaaga thoal sainthaal,
Yen aayul neelumadi,
Malai megamai urumaaravaa?
Unn vaasal vanthu uyir thoovavaa?
Manam veesidum malaraagavaa?
Unn koonthal meethu thinam pookava?
Kannaaga karuthaaga,
Unnai kaapin uyiraaga,
Unnai kandaen kalainthaen kalanthaenae,
Ada unnul urainthaenae,
Indra yennul maatram thanthaayae,
Unnai endrum maraivaenae
aduthu neengal kandupidikavendiya paadalin varigal
udalum uyirum ini thaniyae thaniyae
kaaman nilavae enai aazhum azhagae
uRavae uRavae indru sariyo pirivae
neeraaginaal naan mazhaiyaaginaen
nee vaadinaal en uyir thaedinaen...
