Pacha pul veli virinjirukku
Paari jaatham eranjirukku
Punnagaiyoda povom kaiya
Pudichu vaada en maganae
Nenjaankoottu naduvaala
Nedhamum unna kaathiruppen
Nimisham kooda piriyaama
Un nizhalaa varuven en maganae
Nela kulaiyaama irukkanum daa
Nedungaalam nee vaazhanum daa
Nilava unakku thunaiyaa vaanthil
Niruthi vechen en maganae
Pasi vanthaale un udambhu
Paada padum vali thaangaadhu
Marangalukku ellaam solli vechen
Un pasi aathum en maganae
Nithirai illama nee mulichu
Neruppu pandha kann sivandha
Vaanathu meghatha thaalattu paada
Varisaiyil niruthunen en maganae
Manishan mugam than irukkamada
Mannula pala per mirugamadaa
Idhu pallai koodam sollaadha paadam
Vaazhndhu kathukko en maganae
Thittun vaayi theenjidumae
Unna adikkira kaiyi alugirumae
Poruthavan boomi aalvaan
Neeyum pongida venaam en maganae
Kallaum mullum unpaadha
Karudu murada un payanam
Kaalgal thadukki keezha vilaama
Gavanma venum en maganae
Thani aalunnu ennaadha
En manasu varum un pinnaala
Ettu dhisaiyum natchathirangalum
Unna vaazhthum en maganae
Munnum pinnum pagai irukkum
Medum pallamum neranjirukkum
Mullukku naduvula koodu katti nee
Vaazhnthu kattu daa en maganae
Ettu dhisai unna edhirthaalum
Idiyae mela vilunthaalum
Endha keduthalum nerungaadhu
Idhu amma aasi en maganae
Aagayam unaku kuda pidikkum
Aththana saami thunai irukkum
Kaathu karuppu theendaathu
Idhu amma aasi en maganae
Mandhirathil edhum nadakkaadhu
Endhiramaa nee pooradu
Aadharavaagha eppovum varum
Idhu amma aasi en maganae
Amma aasi en maganae
A lush green field is spread out wide,
Parijatham flowers lie scattered all around.
Let us walk along with a smile,
Hold my hand and come, my son.
Deep inside my heart,
I will keep you safe every day.
Without parting from you even for a moment,
I will walk as your shadow, my son.
You must stand strong and unshaken,
You must live a long life, my boy.
As a companion for you in the sky,
I have stationed the moon, my son.
If hunger strikes, your body
Will suffer and cannot bear the pain.
So I have told all the trees,
They will satisfy your hunger, my son.
If you stay awake without sleep
And your eyes turn red like a ball of fire,
To sing you a soothing lullaby,
I lined up the clouds in the sky, my son.
They may wear a human face,
But many on this earth are beasts, my boy.
This is a lesson no school will teach,
Learn it through life, my son.
The mouth that curses you will burn,
The hand that strikes you will wither away.
The patient one will rule the earth,
So do not lose your temper, my son.
Stones and thorns may fill your path,
And your journey may be rough and rugged.
Without stumbling and falling down,
You must walk with care, my son.
Never think you are all alone,
My heart will always walk behind you.
All eight directions and the stars
Will shower blessings on you, my son.
There will be enemies ahead of you and behind,
And the road will be full of ups and downs.
Build your nest even among thorns,
And show them how to thrive, my son!
Even if all eight directions turn against you,
Even if thunder strikes right upon you,
No harm will ever come near you—
This is your mother's blessing, my son.
The sky will hold an umbrella over you,
All the gods will stand by your side.
No evil shadow will ever touch you—
This is your mother's blessing, my son.
Nothing will ever happen through mere magic,
So strive tirelessly with all your might.
It will always stand by to support you—
This is your mother's blessing, my son.
Your mother's blessing, my son.
