Aanaattam pennaattam aada venum Intha aagaatha peyaattam maara venum
Aanaattam pennaattam aada venum Intha aagaatha peyaattam maara venum
Poovaattam pengalukku menmai venum
Illai poosari vanthuthaan ootta venum
Poovaattam pengalukku menmai venum
Illai poosari vanthuthaan ootta venum
Aanaattam pennaattam aada venum Intha aagaatha peyaattam maara venum
Nee kanda pattana vaasam Naan kandaen eththanai vesham
Nee kanda pattana vaasam Naan kandaen eththanai vesham
Panpaattu thaththuvam undu en pattina thambi Namakkendru paarvaiyum undu
Onnu therinjikko unna purinjikko Nalla nadanthukka kanna thoranthukko
Aanaattam pennaattam aada venum Intha aagaatha peyaattam maara venum
Hae ponnu malligai mottu Vaa nallaa selaiyai kattu
Yaen vanthaai naanaththai vittu Vaa konjam kungumam ittu
Mael naattu sangathi alla En pattana ponnu
Nam naattu sangathi enna Mael naattu sangathi alla
En pattana ponnu Nam naattu sangathi enna
Kannai surukkikko kaalai adakkikko Kaiyai madakkikko
Ponna nenaichchikko
Aanaattam pennaattam aada venum Intha aagaatha peyaattam maara venum
