Kattunen kattunen kotta onna Adha katti kaakka oru kaaval illae

Suthunen suthunen boomi ellaam Enna suthuna sondhatha paakkavillae

Sakkammaa sakkammaa nee sollammaa Ingae naan vaazhndha vaazhkkaikku
Per ennammaa

Sakkammaa sakkammaa nee sollammaa Ingae naan vaazhndha vaazhkkaikku
Per ennammaa Sandhana kaathukku sangadam yenammaa
Sakkammaa sakthiya nee kodammaa

Kattunen kattunen kotta onna Adha katti kaakka oru kaaval illae
Suthunen suthunen boomi ellaam Enna suthuna sondhatha paakkavillae

Sothu sogam thaedavilla Idhu sondhatha thaedi thaan
Ponadhammaa

Katha vitha thorkavilla Adha kaatta thaan ippavum
Vandhadhammaa

Sothu sogam thaedavilla Idhu sondhatha thaedi thaan
Ponadhammaa Katha vitha thorkavilla
Adha kaatta thaan ippavum Vandhadhammaa

Kattala ittadhu thaayammaa Ada kai katti ninnadhu saeiyammaa

Kattala ittadhu thaayammaa Ada kai katti ninnadhu saeiyammaa

Vaesham pottadhula Oru nokkam irukkammaa
Paasam poi aagumaa Adhil maasu vandhirumaa

Kattuna kattuna kottaiyila Ippa katti kaakka ingu kaaval undu

Nee suthuna suthuna boomi ellaam Romba suthamaa onakku perum undu

Sakkammaa sakkammaa Nee sollammaa
Engappan vaazhkkaikku per undammaa

Sandhana kaathukku Sangadam saerumaa
Sakkammaa sakkammaa nee sollammaa

Kattabomman kottaiylae Vandhu kaaladi vechadhu
Kannu kutti

Ketta vazhi ponadhillae Idhu appana meeraadha
Singa kutti

Kattabomman kottaiylae Vandhu kaaladi vechadhu
Kannu kutti Ketta vazhi ponadhillae
Idhu appana meeraadha Singa kutti

Eppavum un pulla sutham thaan Idhu mothamum appanin ratham thaan
Eppavum un pulla sutham thaan Idhu mothamum appanin ratham thaan
Koyil vaasalula ada needhi thokkanumaa Naalum paathu ninnaa adhu niyaayam aayirumaa

Kattunen kattunen kotta onna Adha katti kaakka inga oru kaaval undu
Suthunen suthunen boomi ellaam Romba suthamaa enakku perum undu

Sakkammaa sakkammaa nee sollammaa
Naan vaazhndha vaazhkkaikku per undammaa
Sandhana kaathukku sangadam serummaa
Sakkammaa sakkammaa nee sollammaa

Kattunen kattunen kotta onna Adha katti kaakka inga oru kaaval undu
Suthunen suthunen boomi ellaam Romba suthamaa enakku perum undu

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song, "Kattanum Kattanum" from 'En Aasai Rasave', is a poignant narrative of a character's journey from loneliness and a search for belonging to a powerful assertion of identity and purity. Initially, the protagonist laments building a 'fortress' (representing his life or reputation) without anyone to protect it, and having roamed the world without finding true kin. He appeals to 'Sakkamma' (likely a deity or a revered elder figure) to define his life's purpose and alleviate his sorrow, questioning why a pure soul should suffer. This part of the song conveys a deep sense of vulnerability and a yearning for recognition and support.

As the song progresses, there's a significant shift in tone. The protagonist declares that he didn't seek material wealth but rather sought family, and his inherent skills remain strong. He asserts that his actions were guided by his 'mother' and that his current 'disguise' has a purpose, questioning if true affection can ever be tainted. The latter verses celebrate his newfound protection and a 'pure name' earned through his journey. He proudly identifies himself as a 'lion cub' from 'Kattabomman's fortress' (a reference to a historical Tamil chieftain known for his bravery and defiance), emphasizing his pure lineage and unwavering loyalty to his father. The song culminates in a powerful declaration of his untainted character and a challenge against injustice, reinforcing his rightful place and honor.
