Kannukullae unnai vaithaen, kannamma,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Adi neethaan yen santhosham,

Poovellaam unn vaasam,

Nee paesum paechellaam,

Naan kaetkum sangeetham,

Unn punnagai naan saemikindra selvamadi,

Nee illai endraal

naanum ingae ellaiyadi,

Nerungaatha maan kulangaamalae,

Ennukullae naesam kidakindrathae,

Unnai parthathum uyir thoondavae,

Uthadugal thaandi therikindrathae,

Tharisaana en nenjil

vilunthaayae vithaiyaaga,

Nee anbae paarkum parvaiyilae,

Yen jeevan vaaluthadi,

Nee aatharavaaga thoal sainthaal,

Yen aayul neelumadi,

Kannukullae unnai vaithaen, kannamma,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Malai megamai urumaaravaa?

Unn vaasal vanthy uyir thoovavaa?

Manam veesidum malaraagavaa?

Unn koonthal meethu thinam pookava?

Kannaaga karuthaaga,

Unnai kaapin uyiraaga,

Unnai kandaen kalainthaen kalanthaenae,

Ada unnul urainthaenae,

Indra yennul maatram thanthaayae,

Unnai endrum maraivaenae,

Kannukullae unnai vaithaen, kannamma,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Naan kangal mooda maattaen adi sellama,

Adi neethaan yen santhosham,
