Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
Thekku thisai aanda Mannar inamthaan hoi
Mukkulaththa serndha Devar maganthaan hoi
Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
Enna solla mannu valam Ding dong ding dong
Ding dong do Maaththavanga kannu padum
Ding dong ding dong Ding dong do
Enna solla mannu valam Mathavanga kannu padum
Antha kadhai ippa ulla Sandhadhinga ketka venum
Nammuyirkku mela Maanam mariyaathai
Maanam izhandhaalae Vazha theriyaathae
Perisellaam sonnaanga Sonnabadi ninnaanga
Gunaththaal manaththaal Kalai maan aanaanga
Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
Thekku thisai aanda Mannar inamthaan hoi
Mukkulaththa serndha Devar maganthaan hoi
Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
Munnorukku munnorellaam Ding dong ding dong
Ding dong do Innaarunnu kandu kolla
Ding dong ding dong Ding dong do
Munnorukku munnorellaam Innaarunnu kandu kolla
Yededuththu ezhuthi solla Onnu rendu moonu alla
Mukkulaththor kalyaanandhen Muthu muthu kambalandhen
Yekkulamum vaazhththu sollum Engalukku ekkaalamdhen
Azhagaana sarisodi Aanaimela ambaari
Kanakkaa vazhakkaa Kadalpol yeraalam
Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
Thekku thisai aanda Mannar inamthaan hoi
Mukkulaththa serndha Devar maganthaan hoi
Pottri paadadi ponnae Devar kaaladi mannae
