{Merku thodarchi malai Ilaichu pogum
Andha megaathu melmoochu Vaangi pogum …} (2)
{Maasam oruvaatti Naan vadugapatti pogaatti
Valadhu kai neetti Naan malaiyoda pesaatti …} (2)
Merku thodarchi malai Ilaichu pogum
Andha megaathu melmoochu Vaangi pogum …
Vaigai nadhimela en Valadhu kai nanaikkaama
Vaigaiyila velayaadum Vaalameenu thoongaadhu
Poomarathu keezhae naan Pudhuppaattu ezhuthaama
Poomarathil koodukattum Puraa irai kollaadhu
Kathaalangaadu Engaalsoodu kaangaama
Kathaalam pudharoda Kaadai muttai podaadhu
Manjalaaru anaiyil naan Malaikaathu vaangaama
Manjalaathu moolaiyilae Manikurivi meyaadhu
{Malaiyai konjam kadichukittae Koozh kudicha boomiyadaa
Mannum malaiyum enga Paramabaraikkae saamiyadaa} (2)
Merku thodarchi malai Ilaichu pogum
Andha megaathu melmoochu Vaangi pogum …
Kumabakarai saalaiyilae Komiya vaasam pudikkama
Mandaikkulla mallukatti Malliapoo pookkaadhu
Kedaiyaattu mandhaiyila Kedaa koothu kaangaama
Kaanjupona pozhappukulla Karpanaiyae kelambaadhu
Saathisanam pesum Mozhi sangeetham kelaama
Idhigaasa ezhuthukku Sagavaasam irukkaadhu
Suttameen kavuchi Vandhu surrunnu yeraama
Enseer viruthathil Ezhaancheeru vaaraadhu
{Malaiyai konjam kadichukittae Koozh kudicha boomiyadaa
Mannum malaiyum enga Paramabaraikkae saamiyadaa} (2)
Merku thodarchi malai Ilaichu pogum
Andha megaathu melmoochu Vaangi pogum …
Maasam oruvaatti Naan vadugapatti pogaatti
Valadhu kai neetti Naan malaiyoda pesaatti …
Merku thodarchi malai Ilaichu pogum
Andha megaathu melmoochu Vaangi pogum …
Song Meaning & Analysis
This song is a profound ode to the Western Ghats and the deep, inseparable connection the speaker feels with their ancestral land, its nature, and its traditions. It uses vivid imagery and personification to illustrate how every element of the environment—from the mountains and rivers to the flora and fauna, and even the local customs and language—is intrinsically linked to the speaker's existence and well-being.
