Pala kodi selvaththa pala perkku podhuvaakkum
Mahalatchumi uruvaththil vantha
En arumai lottery seettu dheivangalae
Dheepam yaeththuraen soodam kaatturaen
Dhenamum nadaththuraen poojai
Paavam theerkkavae parisum vaangavae
Thaviyaa thavikkuthu ennaasai
Vaangum sampalattha vachchu
Kudumbangala thaanga mudiyala saami
Yaengum nilamaigala eduththu ozhichchu vittu
Enakku nalla vazhi kaami enakku nalla vazhi kaami
Om maharashtra punjab Assam haryana bihar
Bengal andhra MP naagaa karanataka Puducherryudan tamilnadu
Seettu vadivaththilae sernthu irukkum Enthan note-u saamigalae
Chinna ottu veettukkullae Ondi kudithanamaa maattiyirukkum enakku
Magizhchchi thara maatteengalo Magizhchchi thara maatteengalo
Om nepal bhutan mehalayaa Neegalaavathu paaraayo
Ongalukku irukkum vasathiyilae Oru sila latcham perusum illa
Ongalai nambum indha adiyaenukku Udane pitchai ida venumaiyyaa
Naan arinjum ariyaamalum Therinthum theriyaamalum seitha
Sagalavidhamaana kuttrangalaiyum Poruththu kaaththu ratchikka venum
Om namo lottery seettu maathaakkalae Saamigalae om shanthi om shanthi om shanthi
