Odi vilaiyaadu pappaa Nee ointhirukka laaaathu pappaa
Koodi vilaiyaadu pappaa Oru kuzhanthaiyai vaiyaathae pappaa
Odi vilaiyaadu pappaa Nee ointhirukka laaaathu pappaa
Koodi vilaiyaadu pappaa Oru kuzhanthaiyai vaiyaathae pappaa
Kaalai ezhunthavudan padippu Pinbu kanivu kodukkum nalla paattu
Maalai muzhuthum vilaiyaattu Endru vazhkka paduththi kollu pappaa
Chinnajiru kuruvi polae Nee thirinthu paranthuvaa pappaa
Vanna paravaigalai kandu Nee manathil magizhchi kollu pappaa
Odi vilaiyaadu pappaa Nee ointhirukka laaaathu pappaa
Koodi vilaiyaadu pappaa Oru kuzhanthaiyai vaiyaathae pappaa
Saadhigal illaiyadi pappaa Kula thaazhchchi uyarchi sollal paavam
Needhi uyarnthamadhi kalvi Anbu niraiya udaiyavarkal melor
Ellaarum orr kulam Ellaarum orr inam
Ellaarum india makkal
Ellaarum orr nirai Ellaarum orr vilai
Ellaarum innaattu mannar
Odi vilaiyaadu pappaa Nee ointhirukka laaaathu pappaa
Koodi vilaiyaadu pappaa Oru kuzhanthaiyai vaiyaathae pappaa
Paadhaganj seipavarai kandaal Naam payangkolla laagaathu pappaa
Modhi midhiththuvidu pappaa Avar mugaththil umizhnthuvidu pappaa

Thani oruvanukku unavillaiyenil Jegaththinai azhiththiduvom
