Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
Oodhunga naadhaswaram Amman thaer adhil aadi varum

Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
Oodhunga naadhaswaram Amman thaer adhil aadi varum

Kulamagal naachiyamma Nadapadhun aatchiyamma
Kann malarndhu engalukku Kai kodukkum ammanukku

Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum

Amma un paarvai vendi anbanum kaathirukka
Andraadum yekkam kondu angamum verthirukka
Unakaaga idhayam ondru isai paadudhu
Urangaadha kangal rendu unai theduthu

Neeyindri naanum illai sreedeviyae Naaldhorum vaadum unnaal en aaviyae
Singaara vannam kandu Sindhu paada bhakthan undu

Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
Oodhunga naadhaswaram Amman thaer adhil aadi varum
Kulamagal naachiyamma Nadapadhun aatchiyamma

Ooyaamal kaalai maalai ammanin archanai thaan
Vaayara paadum paadal ambigai keerthanai thaan
Alangaara vadivam kandu alaipaaigiren
Abhisegam puriyum naalai edhirpaarkkiren

Aagayam boomiyengum oru vannamae Adiyae en nenjil endrum un ennamae
Ennaalum sondham kondu Ezhu jenmam bandham undu

Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
Oodhunga naadhaswaram Amman thaer adhil aadi varum
Kulamagal naachiyamma Nadapadhun aatchiyamma
Kann malarndhu engalukku Kai kodukkum ammanukku

Kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
Ha ha han kottunga kettimelam Ada ketkattum adha ettu oorum
