Ammadiyoo aiyaa kadhaiyaa sonnaa
Oorae sirikkumadi paavam muzhikkudhadi

Ammadiyoo chittappa kadhaiyaa sonnaa
Oorae sirikkumadi paavam muzhikkudhadi

Kaasi yaathirai annachi Kaavi vaetti ennaachu
Kaasi yaathirai annachi Kaavi vaetti ennaachu

Aasai ippo vandhaachu Poojai ellam poyaachu
Aasai ippo vandhaachu Poojai ellam poyaachu

Kottu pottu raathiri neram Maapillai pola ponaaru ponaaru

Lotteryodu vandhaaru

Ammadiyoo chitthappa kadhaiyaa sonnaa
Oorae sirikkumadi paavam muzhikkudhadi

Ammadiyoo maamaa kadhaiyaa sonnaa
Oorae sirikkumadi paavam muzhikkudhadi

Kaasi yaathirai annachi Kaavi vaetti ennaachu

Aasai ippo vandhaachu Poojai ellam poyaachu

Illarathai veruthu inbam kaana sonna Raama bhakthar kaadhal kondathaen gyaana thangame
Raama bhakthar kaadhal kondathaen Sabalam thaan

Aalandhooru mandhiram seidhathindha thandhiram
Vayasu kooda maranthu ponadhae gnyaana thangamae
Vayasu kooda maranthu ponadhae

Ennachi ennachu bhrammachariyam ennachu

Vittachu thottachu beedavellam pottachu

Ammadiyoo aiyaa kadhaiya sonnaa
Oorae sirikkum padi paavam muzhikkuthadi

Ammadiyoo chitthappa kadhaiyaa sonnaa
Oorae sirikkumadi paavam muzhikkudhadi

Kaasi yaathirai chittappa Kaavi vaetti enngappa

Pathara kaaranukku pottachu

Kaasi yaathirai annachi Kaavi vaetti ennaachu
Kaasi yaathirai annachi Kaavi vaetti ennaachu

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song humorously narrates the unexpected transformation of an elder, who was once dedicated to a spiritual path, symbolized by a Kasi pilgrimage and saffron robes. The lyrics playfully expose how this individual, referred to as grandpa, uncle, or elder brother, has abandoned his ascetic vows and celibacy for worldly desires. The repeated questioning of "What happened to the saffron robe?" underscores his dramatic shift from a devotee of Rama to someone pursuing love, dressing like a groom, and indulging in pleasures like smoking beedis. The song suggests that some "magic" or "trick" led him to forget his age and spiritual commitments.

The narrative is delivered with a lighthearted, teasing tone, implying that his sudden change has become the talk of the town, causing both amusement and a touch of embarrassment for him. It highlights the human tendency to succumb to desires, even after committing to a path of renunciation. The song's charm lies in its relatable portrayal of a character who, despite his initial spiritual aspirations, ultimately embraces a more conventional, pleasure-seeking life, much to the amusement of his community.
