Kottungadaaa
Mela thaalam thattungada
Ayya nam thevar ayya Arasanda vamsam ayya
Thevarthaan pethu vacha ponnu Athu dheivam ayya
Mangala mangaigal maalaiya soodunga Komari ponnunga kolavai podunga
Thangatha eduthu atha thari pottu elachu Enga ponnukku uduthu
Oru thaer pola singarachu
Haankottungada Mela thaalam thattungada
Hei kottungada Mela thaalam thattungada
Sooriyana rathiriku Vizhika sonnavaru thevaru
Chanthirana muppathu naall Iruka sonnavaru thevaru
Idathu kaiyal siruthaiyathan Idari vittavaru thevaru
Ayiram per ulai kothikka Arisi thanthavar thevaru
Thanni kettu thavichu vanthaa Mooru thanthathu thevaru
Thali manja kayithukellam Thangam thanthathu thevaru
Ayyapethu vacha ponnu Kannuthevarkula kannu
Hei samancha ponnuku santhanam kannuku Neruki thodutha marutha malligai
Iruki pinnunga iruki pinnunga
Kottungadaaa Melathaalam thattungada
Haan kottungadaaa Melathaalam thattungada
Poovukellam athisayama Poothu vantha kannamma
Pombalayae aasa padum Ponnalagu pennamma
Kannalaga paathuputta Kenda meenu valuma
Iva kattazhaga paadi vaika Kampan tamil pothuma
Ketti illa thaatti illa Ottiyanam Ottuma Edaiku edai thangam venum

Vaazhga… thevar magal vaazhga Vaazhgathevar kulam vaazhga
Hei vaadura singam vaazhththu sollunga

Anthiku munnala panthiku munthunga
Ayya Nam thevar ayya

Thevarthaan Haa pethu vacha
Ponnu Athu dheivam ayya
Mangala mangaigal maalaiya soodunga Komari ponnunga kolavai podunga
Thangatha eduthu atha thari pottu elachu Enga ponnukku uduthu
Oru thaer pola singarachu
Kottungadaaa… Mela thaalam thattungada
Aakottungada Mela thaalam thattungada
