Ommmm namo narayanaya

{Kallai mattum kandaal Kadavul theriyadhu
Kadavul mattum kandaal Kalladi theriyadhu} (2)

Ettil aindhu enn kazhiyum endrum Aindhil ettu yen kazhiyadhu
Ashta aksharam yerkum nenju Pancha aksharam paarkadhu

Oonakkannil paarthaal Yavum kuttram dhaan
Gnanakkannil paarthaal Yarum suttram dhaan

Ommm

Illai endru sonna pinbum Indriamaiyadhu
Thollai thandha podhum engal Thillai maraadhu

Illai endru sonna pinbum Indriamaiyadhu
Thollai thandha podhum engal Thillai maraadhu

Veera saivargal munnal engal Veera vainavam thorkadhu
Mannan sollukku anji endrum Merkil sooriyan udhikkadhu

Rajalakshmi naayagan Sreenivasan dhaan
Sreenivasan sei Indha vishnudasan naan
Naattil undu aayiram Rajarajathar dhaan
Rajanukku rajan Indha rangarajan dhaan

Neerukkullae moozhginaalum Needhi saagadhu
Nenjukkullae vazhum Engal jodhi saagadhu

Neerukkullae moozhginaalum Needhi saagadhu
Nenjukkullae vazhum Engal jodhi saagadhu

Veesum katru Vandhu vilakkanaikkum
Vennilaavai adhu anaiththiduma Kottum vaan mazhai
Nilam nanaikkum Andha vaanam thannai
Adhu nanaiththiduma

Seivam endru paarthaal Deivam theriyadhu
Deivam endru paarthaal Samayam kidaiyadhu

Kallai mattum kandaal Kadavul theriyadhu
Kadavul mattum kandaal Kalladi theriyadhu

Song Meaning & Analysis

This powerful song from 'Dasavathaaram' is sung from the perspective of Rangarajan Nambi, a staunch Vaishnavite, during a period of religious conflict. The lyrics express unwavering devotion to Lord Vishnu, asserting the supremacy of Vaishnavism and the resilience of its followers against persecution, often from Shaivite rulers. It uses metaphors like the sun not rising in the west and the moon being unextinguishable to symbolize the steadfastness of faith and the ultimate triumph of justice and divine light, even in the face of adversity.

Beyond its initial sectarian assertions, the song also carries a profound philosophical message. The lines "If you see only as Shaivism, you won't see God. If you see only as God, there is no religion" transcend the religious divide, advocating for a universal understanding of the divine. This suggests that focusing on narrow religious labels can obscure the true nature of God, and that true divinity encompasses all, rendering sectarian distinctions irrelevant. The song thus balances a strong declaration of specific faith with a broader spiritual wisdom.
