Kaavaeri gangaikku melae Kanniyar sangeetham polae
Raagangal maarum paadalgal maarum Paadidum naan ondru thaan

Kaavaeri gangaikku melae Kanniyar sangeetham polae

Raaraa raaraa raaraa Raaraa raaraa raaraa
Raaraaraa raaraaraa Raaraaraa raaraaraa

Naalukku naal ondru Aanandha kolangal
Naalaikku verondru Nadamaadum paarungal
Kaalangal konjam thaan Vaazh naal konja thaan
Yaar thottamo yaar pushpamo Naan sooduven

Pen endra sittukkal Poo mullai mottukkal
Kannan leelaigal…

Kaavaeri gangaikku melae Kanniyar sangeetham polae

Whistling :

Manjathil pala kodi Malar kondu podungal
Kalaiyaadha selaigal Azhagaaga vaarungal
Yaarukku yaar sondham Naalellaam aanandham
Poo vaasamae pon megalai Ennennavao

Raakkaala thottangal Ketkaamal vaarungal
Odattum kaalangal…

Raaraaraa rararara rararara raa Raaraaraa rararara rararara raa

Yenammaa raajaathi Yen indha vetkam thaan
Irubadhu vayadhaanaal Eppodhum sorgam thaan
Aadaigal maatrungal Jaadaigal maatrungal
Thaenaatrilae paal ootruvom Neeraaduvom

Pen endrum aan endrum Undaakkum dheivathai
Ennaalum vaazhthungal…

Kaavaeri gangaikku melae Kanniyar sangeetham polae
Raagangal maarum paadalgal maarum Paadidum naan ondru thaan

Kaavaeri gangaikku melae Kanniyar sangeetham polae
