Seemaan pettra selvangal Seemaan pettra selvangal
Perum selvathil midhandha ullangal Seemaan pettra selvangal
Perum selvathil midhandha ullangal Siragai izhandhu uravai marandhu
Thigaithu nirkkum annangal O thigaithu nirkkum annangal
Seemaan pettra selvangal

Oorukku uzhaikkum maadaanaan Than ullam theindhu odaanaan
Oorukku uzhaikkum maadaanaan Than ullam theindhu odaanaan
Perum illai perumaiyum illai Pichai kolam poonduvittaan
Pichai kolam poonduvittaan Seemaan pettra selvangal

Maaligai eendra manivairam Pudhu maragadha sevvaai kodi annam
Maaligai eendra manivairam Pudhu maragadha sevvaai kodi annam
Kolam izhandhu azhudha kanneril Kodu vilundhadhu poongannam
Kolam izhandhu azhudha kanneril Kodu vilundhadhu poongannam

Thandhai kattiya mandabathai Thaanum kaana ninaithirundhaal
Thandhai kattiya mandabathai Thaanum kaana ninaithirundhaal
Kaalam avrum ena thandhai uraithaan Kaalam vandhadhu vandhu vittaal
Kaalam avrum ena thandhai uraithaan Kaalam vandhadhu vandhu vittaal
Seemaan pettra selvangal Perum selvathil midhandha ullangal

Manaiyaal sollil madhizhandhaan Andha mayakkathil uravai maraithirundhaan
Manaiyaal sollil madhizhandhaan Andha mayakkathil uravai maraithirundhaan
Mayakkam thelindhu uravai ninaindhu Mandapam kaana oodugindraan
Mayakkam thelindhu uravai ninaindhu Mandapam kaana oodugindraan
Seemaan pettra selvangal Perum selvathil midhandha ullangal

Oorukku thandhai katti veithaan Indru uriyavar adhiale kudi pugundhaar
Oorukku thandhai katti veithaan Indru uriyavar adhiale kudi pugundhaar
Yaarukku endru enna varum Idhai yaar arivaar avan thaan varuvaan
Yaarukku endru enna varum Idhai yaar arivaar avan thaan varuvaan

Naettraiya vaazhkkai maaligaiyil Indraiya vaazhkkai mandabathil
Naettraiya vaazhkkai maaligaiyil Indraiya vaazhkkai mandabathil
Naalaiya vaazhkkai evvidamoo Naalaiya vaazhkkai evvidamoo
Oru naalil mudiyum nadagamoo

Song Meaning & Analysis

This poignant song delves into the transient nature of wealth and the harsh realities faced by those accustomed to luxury. It portrays the children of a rich man, once floating in immense wealth, now bewildered and lost like swans with broken wings, having forgotten their familial bonds. The lyrics paint a picture of their downfall, with one son toiling like an ox for the village, losing his identity and pride, eventually reduced to a beggar. The daughter, once a palace-born jewel, now bears the marks of sorrow on her once beautiful face, her dreams of seeing her father's grand hall overshadowed by their changed circumstances.

The narrative further explores themes of delusion and redemption, as the rich man's son, swayed by his wife's words, initially forgets his kin. However, clarity eventually dawns upon him, prompting a desperate rush to reconnect with his past and the legacy his father built. The song reflects on the unpredictable turns of life, questioning who truly benefits from the father's charitable constructions and acknowledging that only a higher power knows what the future holds. It concludes with a philosophical reflection on life's journey, from palace to hall, pondering the uncertainty of tomorrow and whether life itself is merely a fleeting drama.
