Haeihaei haei haei haei haei Eththanaiyo aththamavan
Eththanaiyo maaman mavan Yaarukunnu maalai poduvaen
Pallikkoooda payangalum Pallu pona paattankalum
Aasai pattaa enna pannuvaen
Aalaagiththaan naalaachchuthu Poomenithaan noolaachchuthu
Eththanaiyo aththamavan Eththanaiyo maaman mavan
Yaarukunnu maalai poduvaen
Anju vitha pooeduththu ambu vida mamuthanum
Sengarumbu villa pudichchaan adichchaan
Antha adi thaangavilla ammammaa naan thoongavilla
Aaga moththam rompa thavichchen thudichchen
Unna pola aala thedi ullam vaaduthu edhukku
Vannapoovum vaasam veesi vanda theduthu adhukku
Eththanaiyo aththamavan Eththanaiyo maaman mavan

Nattanadu raaththirithaan naanumoru maathirithaan
Uchchi mudhal padham varaikkum kothikkum
Munnazhakum pinnazhagum moodi vachcha pennazhagum
Santhaiyila vantha sarakku unakku
Meesa vachcha aankalaellam aasa vaikkalam varalaam
Aasa vachcha pinnal kooda kaasa vaikkalaam tharalaam
Eththanaiyo aththamavan Eththanaiyo maaman mavan

Eththanaiyo aththamavan Eththanaiyo maaman mavan
Yaarukunnu maalai poduvaen
Pallikkoooda payangalum Pallu pona paattankalum
Aasai pattaa enna pannuvaen
