Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Like Sita and Rama,
You are the gods we see before our eyes,
May you live for many, many years!
Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Like Sita and Rama,
You are the gods we see before our eyes,
May you live for many, many years!
Upon mother's lap, like the three classic forms of Tamil,
we grew up together.
Female: Like flowers of affection whose fragrance never fades,
we will live bonded in love.
A temple where righteousness is celebrated—
isn't that our father's heart?
Even as time passes, beside us
won't it always stand as our shield?
Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Like Sita and Rama,
You are the gods we see before our eyes,
May you live for many, many years!
Like elephant-faced Ganesha, the eldest son
will uphold justice!
The son who lives like six-faced Murugan
will serve with honesty!
All that we and I have received,
isn't it our mother's blessing?
Valuing honor above all like a proud deer,
isn't ours a noble family?
Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Female: Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Male: Like Sita and Rama,
Chorus: You are the gods we see before our eyes,
May you live for many, many years!
Like lamps that the wind cannot blow out,
keep shining your bright light!
Like lamps that the wind cannot blow out,
keep shining your bright light!
Of Kamarajar, whom time will never forget,
speak of his sacrifices every day!
O little roses I hold close to my heart,
praise the name of Nehru!
Like Indira, whom everyone praises,
strive to build our nation!
Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Like Sita and Rama,
Male: O precious treasures of my life,
May you live for many, many years!
Mother is like Goddess Ambika,
Father is like the Lord Almighty.
Like Meenakshi and Shiva,
Like Sita and Rama,
You are the gods we see before our eyes,
May you live for many, many years!
