Yerikkaraa poongaatrae…

{Paadhamalar nogumunnu Nadakkumm paadhavazhi poovirichen…
Mayilaa} (2)

Odam pol aaduthae manasu Koodi thaan ponadhae vayasu
Kaalathin kolathaal nenjam vaadudhu Andha ponnaana ninaivugal
Kanneeril karaiyudhu

Yerikkaraa poongaatrae… Nee pora vazhi thenkizhakko
Thenkizhakku vaasamalli Ennai thedi vara thoodhu sollu…uuhuu…

Yerikkaraa poongaatrae…

{Odichellum vaanmegham Nilava moodi kolla paarkudhadi
Adiyae…} (2)

Jaamathil paaduren thaniyaa Raagathil seranum thunaiyaa
Nerangal koodinaal maalai sootuven Andha raasaangam varumvarai
Rosaavae kaathiru

Yerikkaraa poongaatrae… Nee pora vazhi thenkizhakko
Thenkizhakku vaasamalli Ennai thedi vara thoodhu sollu…uuhuu…

Yerikkaraa poongaatrae…huh huh
Nee pora vazhi thenkizhakko huhhhhuhhhaa
