Peththa manasu suththathilum suththamadaa

Peththa manasu suththathilum suththamadaa

Verum kaiya veesi kondu Veragu somanthu viththu
Iravaa pagalaa dhenam dhenam ozhachchathu Sarugu porukki vanthu saatham vadichchu thanthu
Pasiyae theriyaa maganaa valaththathum

Eththana thaayinga namma tamil naattilae
En thaayi avala pol yaaru intha oorlae
Thiyaagi yaaru thiyaagi yaarum illae podaa
Thaayin kaala vanangi kumbittitu vaadaa

Pala vidha marangal enna maraththula pazhangal enna

Peththa manasu suththathilum suththamadaa
Intha pilla manasu piththathilum piththmadaa…

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song is a heartfelt ode to the unparalleled love and sacrifice of a mother. The lyrics emphasize that a mother's heart is the epitome of purity, contrasting it with the often-erratic nature of a child's heart. The singer elevates the mother's status above even God, highlighting her selfless efforts, such as toiling day and night, selling firewood, and gathering dry leaves to ensure her child never experiences hunger.

The song further explores the idea that true character stems from one's origins, using metaphors of plants and fruits. It suggests that just as a chili won't turn sweet by ripening or a guava bitter by being raw, a person born from a 'good womb' (implying good upbringing and values) will inherently be good and capable. The central theme revolves around profound gratitude and reverence for the mother, portraying her as the ultimate temple and the entire world.
