Neeyae gadhi ammaa… En thaayae thunai ammaa…
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Nallavarai vaattuvadhaa Vaedhanaiyil aazhthuvadhaa
Nallavarai vaattuvadhaa Vaedhanaiyil aazhthuvadhaa
Nee thaanae kaavaladi sodhanai podhumadi
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Aa… aaaaa Aaaaaaaaa…
Aaaaaaaa Aaaaa…aaa
Dharumam thazhaikka vandha raasaavum Verum tharaiyil kidakka vidhiyo
Dhinamum thuyaril ingu naan vaadi Sudum kanalil eriya vidhiyo
Arumai thalaivan uyir pogaamal Nee abayam koduthu vidammaa
Thalaivan karunai manam nogaamal Avar thuyaram thudaithu vidammaa
Kaattu mugam kaattu maakaali Kanneer idhai maatrru karumaari
Yaetru vizhi dheepam adhai yaetru Podhum adi podhum vilaiyaattu
Siva sakthi siva sakthi yena unnai Azhaithadhan porul ennavo
Paduthavan ezhundhida oru sakthi thara Innum manam illaiyo varam illaiyo
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Nallavarai vaattuvadhaa Vaedhanaiyil aazhthuvadhaa
Nallavarai vaattuvadhaa Vaedhanaiyil aazhthuvadhaa

Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Neeyae gadhi ammaa En thaayae thunai ammaa
Koyil kundrathilae Adi theeyai nee moottalaam
Ezhai nenjathilae Adi nee yaen thee moottinaai
Ezhaikku aadhaaram avar thaanammaa Anjaadha nenjukku thuyar yaenamma
En aavi ponaalum pogattumae En jeevan avar endrum vaazhattumae
Thalaivan pizhaikka Enadhu uyirai tharavaa
Dharumam nilaikka Thanalil irangi varavaa
Enadhu uyirai eduppaai Avarai pizhaikka viduvaai
Aangaari omkaariyae… maari…
Aa… aa… aa… Aa… aa… aa… aa… aa…
Aa… aa…
