Rajaa nee thoongalaama Unnalae indha rambaavum yengalaama
Azhagu raja nee thoongalaama Unnalae indha rambaavum engloom

Kannkolai saathi puttu Kaashayam kattikittu
Kannkolai saathi puttu Kaashayam kattikittu
Kamandalathai yendhi kittu Kanni ponnai yechu puttu
Kamandalathai yendhi kittu Kanni ponnai yechu puttu

Unakku thapputhanda Onnu naanum seidhu ariyaen
Nee sanniyaasi vesham poda Naanum sagiyaen

Kattaana jadhai endru Kalyanam pannikittu
Kattaana jadhai endru Kalyanam pannikittu
Kannana kannae endru Kannathaiyum killi puttu
Kannana kannae endru Kannathaiyum killi puttu

Rajaa nee thoongalaama Unnalae indha rambaavum yengalaama
Azhagu raja aasai raja Endhan raaja nee thoongalaama

Song Meaning & Analysis

This song is a playful yet poignant plea from a woman, referred to as 'Rambha' (a celestial nymph, symbolizing beauty and allure), to her beloved 'Raja' (King). She questions his indifference and apparent detachment, asking how he can sleep peacefully while she yearns for him. The lyrics suggest a past intimacy and commitment, where he wooed her, called them a "perfect pair," married her, and showed affection.

The core of her lament is his sudden transformation into an 'ascetic' (sanniyaasi), donning saffron robes and carrying a water pot, implying he has abandoned his worldly duties and, more importantly, his relationship with her. She asserts her innocence, stating she has done nothing wrong to warrant such neglect. The song captures her confusion, hurt, and longing, as she tries to remind him of their shared past and rekindle his affection, questioning how he can forsake their bond for a life of renunciation.
