Hmmmmmm ahaaa… ahaaa…

Nee idhai ketpathaal nenjil orr nimmadhi
Aaahaaa… naal muzhuthum parvaiyil naan ezhuthum
Orr kadhaiyai unakkena naan koora…

Keladi kanmani paadagan sangathi

Ennaalum thaanae thaen virunthaavathu
Pirarkaaga naan paadum thirai paadal thaan
Innaalil thaanae naan isaithaen amma
Enakaaga naan paadum mudhal paadal thaan

Kaanal neeraal theeratha dhaagam
Gangai neeraal theernthathadi
Naan potta poo maalai manam serka villai
Nee thaanae enakaaga madal pootha mullai…

Keladi kanmani paadagan sangathi
Nee idhai ketpathaal nenjil orr nimmadhi
