இனி வரும் காலம் தோறும்
வாழ்ந்திட பாசம் போதும்

துயர் வந்த போதும் நாளும்
தோல் தரும் தோழன் நீயே
உடன் வரும் நிழலாக
நேசம் சேர்க்குதே

Affection alone is enough to live.

உண்மை அன்பு நீதான்
தந்தை தாய்க்கு மேல்தான்
தெய்வம் போல நீதான்
வணங்குவேனே நான்தான்
உன் அன்பு பாசம் போதும்
எந்தன் நெஞ்சிலே
எதற்காகவோ எனக்காகவோ
மனமே உணர்வே உயிரே
