Laala lalalala lalla laallaa lalla laallaa

Lalla laallaa lalla laallaa
Lallaaa lallaaa lallaaa lallaaa lallaaa laa

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa Ada mayilae mayilae podunnu
Kenji kaettaa iragai podumaa Ada kuyilae kuyilae paadunnu
Kenji kaettaa udanae paadumaa

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa

Madaiyanga irukkura ulagam idhu Therinjukkittom naam therinjukkittom
Madaigalai udaikkira vazhiyum yedhu Purinjukkittom naam purinjukkittom

Yaaraachu yaemaandhaa en thozhanae Joraaga poo suthu haei

Raajaadhi raajaa vaa En koodavae oyaama oor suthu

Kaalam kali kaalam nallavarkku nashtam
Innorutthan kaasil vaazhuradhaa kashtam

Enna ulagam ada enna jananga Sillaraikku ingirukku selvaakku

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa Ada mayilae mayilae podunnu
Kenji kaettaa iragai podumaa Ada kuyilae kuyilae paadunnu
Kenji kaettaa udanae paadumaa

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa

Pasikkira naerathil namakkena thaan

Female Chorus : Ulai vekkumaa oor ulai vekkumaa

Dharumatha niyaayattha kadai pudichaa

Female Chorus : Silai vekkumaa oor silai vekkumaa

Appaavi neeyaanaa Un thalaiyil veppaanae molagaaya daei

Pollaadha aalaanaa Un madiyil veppaanae maamoola
Deddeddae deddeddae daei

Nalla padi vaazhandha gaandhikkenna aachu
Suttu puttaan paaru poyiduchu moochu

Andha vazhi thaan othu varumaa Namma vazhi ippadi thaan povomaa

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa Ada mayilae mayilae podunnu
Kenji kaettaa iragai podumaa Ada kuyilae kuyilae paadunnu
Kenji kaettaa udanae paadumaa

Oru jaan vayithukku Vazhi indri dhinam dhinam
Janangalum thudikkudhadaa Ada ozhachaa maruthavan odhachaa koduppaan
Vazhi onnu irukkudhadaa

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song from 'Maamiyar Veedu' is a cynical commentary on the struggles of common people for basic survival. It paints a grim picture of a society where honest hard work doesn't guarantee sustenance, symbolized by the 'one span-long belly' that needs to be filled daily. The lyrics question the effectiveness of pleading or adhering to traditional virtues, using metaphors like a peacock not dropping feathers or a cuckoo not singing on demand, suggesting that passive approaches yield no results in a harsh world. It hints at a more aggressive, pragmatic approach to survival when conventional means fail.

The song further delves into societal disillusionment, labeling the world as full of 'fools' and implying that one must learn to navigate it by unconventional means. It criticizes a system where 'small change has influence' and where good people suffer, citing Mahatma Gandhi's fate as an example of how righteousness can be met with tragedy. The song ultimately poses a rhetorical question about whether the path of goodness is viable, suggesting a lean towards a more self-serving, perhaps even exploitative, approach to get by in a corrupt world.
