Oththa roobhaa unakku thaaren Pathaattiyum eduthu thaaren
Oththa roobhaa unakku thaaren Pathaattiyum eduthu thaaren
Muthaaram nee onnu thandhaakkaa En munnaadi nee konjam vandhaakkaa

Oththa roobhaa enakku venaa On uravum enakku venaa
Oththa roobhaa enakku venaa On uravum enakku venaa
Ammaadi enakkadhu kattaadhu Ada en maeni manakkura javvaadhu

Oorum kaanaama uravum ariyaama Serum nerathil serndhaal enna
Odai poovaattam oosai ponnaattam Paavai nee konjam sirithaal enna

Anjum maalai pozhudhu Mella aadi nadakkum azhaghu
Anjum maalai pozhudhu Mella aadi nadakkum azhaghu
Sirichaa vala virichaa Pakkam varumo oh oh

Oththa roobhaa unakku thaaren Pathaattiyum eduthu thaaren

Ammaadi enakkadhu kattaadhu Ada en maeni manakkura javvaadhu

Aadi kaathaadum aathang karaiyoram Jodi kili koottam paadum bodhu
Aasai thakkadho aalai paakaadho Kaadhal noi romba pollaadhadhu

Adhukku yetha marundhu Un arugil irukku arundhu
Adhukku yetha marundhu Un arugil irukku arundhu
Kudichaa neeyum thavichaa Sondham vidumaa

Oththa roobhaa unakku thaaren Pathaattiyum eduthu thaaren
Oththa roobhaa unakku thaaren Pathaattiyum eduthu thaaren

Ammaadi enakkadhu kattaadhu Ada en maeni manakkura javvaadhu
Ammaadi enakkadhu kattaadhu Ada en maeni manakkura javvaadhu
