Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi Karunaiyil paarvathy neeyammaa
Aayinum nalla naayagi Antha nalaayini pol vaazhammaa
Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi
Kallaanaalum pullaanaalum Kanavanai kondaadu
Avan kaaladi nizhalil vaazhvathuthaanae Kulamagal kula panpaadu
Yaenendru kelvigal ketkaathae Yaerittu mugaththai paarkkaathae
Kodu kizhiththaal thaandaathae Kobaththai konjam thoondaathae…
Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi Karunaiyil paarvathy neeyammaa
Aayinum nalla naayagi Antha nalaayini pol vaazhammaa
Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi
Perum pugazhu purushanai saera Kaaranam manaviyammaa
Antha valluvan arivai vaiyagam arinthathu Vaasuki udhaviyammaa
Aanavam kondu pesaathae Adangi povathu mariyaathai
Arivaal edhaiyum edai podu Thavaraai nadanthaal thadai podu
Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi Karunaiyil paarvathy neeyammaa
Aayinum veera thaayena annai Indiragandhi pol vaazhammaa
Kalviyil saraswathi selvaththil laksmi
Veedaanaalum naadaanaalum Vilanganum pennaalae
Aval thannai nabum thairiyaththodu Vazhanum mannmelae
Sodhanai vanthaal thaangividu Saathanai seithu vendru vidu
Veeranin thaayena perai edu Un kai uyarum kavalai vidu
Vaasuki yaaru valluvan yaaru Onnum puriyavillai
Intha paadam ellaam padikkira class-kku Naan innum varavillai
Appa solli tharavillai Hostel pakkam varathilla
Ammavukkum pala velai Ennai ninaikka time illai
Song Meaning & Analysis
This song from 'Kudumbam Oru Kadhambam' is a fascinating blend of traditional expectations and emerging modern ideals for women. Initially, it advises a young woman to embody the virtues of Hindu goddesses – Saraswati (knowledge), Lakshmi (wealth), and Parvati (compassion) – while also adhering to the traditional wifely devotion exemplified by mythological figures like Nalaayini and Vaasuki. It emphasizes subservience, not questioning the husband, and upholding family honor through his success, attributing his fame to his wife's support.
However, the song subtly shifts its tone, especially in the later verses. While still advocating for wisdom and discernment ("weigh everything with wisdom"), it introduces the idea of a woman's own strength and courage. The mention of Indira Gandhi as a role model for a "brave mother" signifies a move towards recognizing women's leadership and resilience beyond just domestic roles. The final verses, sung by a younger voice, express a humorous and somewhat rebellious ignorance of these traditional expectations, highlighting a generational gap and perhaps a critique of the lack of guidance provided to young women in understanding these complex roles.
