Anbaana thaayai vittu Engae nee ponaalum
Neengaamal unnai suttrum Ennangal ennaalum
Aiyaa unkaalgal patta boomi Thaayin madi
Engaeyum yaedhum illa Eedu sollum padi
Kaaveri alaigal vandhu Karaiyil unnai thaedidum
Kaanaamal varutha pattu Thalai kunindhu odidum
Oru bandham enbadhum Paasam enbadhum veru vitta idam
Idhai vittaal un nenjai vaazha vaippadhu Veru endha idam
Than mannai vittoru Kuruvi kudumbam parandhu pogudhadi
Thaan innaal varaikkum Irundha koottai marandhu pogudhadi
Indha nenjil ippadi aasai vandhoru Kolamittadhadi
Idhil nanmai koodattum theemai odattum Kaalam vitta vazhi
