Neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Amma neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Varam tharum neeli sugam tharum sooli
Intha pennival vedhanai
Pokkida vanthidu punpadum
En thunai kaaththida vanthidu
Neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Amma neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Vadivukkoru naayagiyae
Varuvaai karumaariyammaa
Saei enakku thaai vadiam neeyae
En oon uyirai pettraval nee
Un pola enai kandaval nee
Uravenukku thanthavalum neeyae
Vadivukkoru naayagiyae
Varuvaai karumaariyammaa
Saei enakku thaai vadiam neeyae
En oon uyirai pettraval nee
Un pola enai kandaval nee
Uravenukku thanthavalum neeyae
Amma un aanaikkoru
Vidai koorammaa
Ampodu veesi yaeriya thadai yaenammaa
Than pillaiyin vaazhvinai
Kaakkaavittaal adhil
Enna pudhumaiyadi
Iru kannimai moodiya
Kangal irunthenna
Naanindru velvathu

Neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Amma neethaandi arul kodukkum maari
Varam tharum neeli sugam tharum sooli

You are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
Mother, you are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
Neeli who grants boons, Shooli who brings peace and joy!
To take away the pain
of this woman, please come;
come to save my suffering partner...
You are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
Mother, you are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
O goddess of beauty and grace,
come to me, Mother Karumari!
To me, your child, you are the caring mother.
You gave me my body and my life,
you cherished me as your very own,
and you gave me every loving bond.
O goddess of beauty and grace,
come to me, Mother Karumari!
To me, your child, you are the caring mother.
You gave me my body and my life,
you cherished me as your very own,
and you gave me every loving bond.
Mother, to this test of yours,
give me an answer, Mother!
Why throw hurdles at me like piercing arrows, Mother?
If you do not protect
the life of your own child,
what wonder is there in your power?
What is the use of eyes
if their lids stay shut?
Whether I triumph today
is entirely in your hands!
You are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
Mother, you are the one who showers grace, O Mari!

Mother, you are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
As Daksha's daughter Dakshayani,
you chose a marriage of love,
and stood as wife beside him—was that wrong?
When you are here, the protector of the earth,
that I should live trapped in troubles—
truly, what kind of justice is this?
As Daksha's daughter Dakshayani,
you chose a marriage of love,
and stood as wife beside him—was that wrong?
When you are here, the protector of the earth,
that I should live trapped in troubles—
truly, what kind of justice is this?
Mother, did you not cross boundaries
for Lord Shiva?
Yet did you not become
the very half of his being?
If that divine wedding
was never a mistake,
where is that same fairness for me?
Grant me that equal justice!
In my married life,
banish cruel fate,
and protect my life!
You are the one who showers grace, O Mari!

Mother, you are the one who showers grace, O Mari!
Mari, Muthumaari, Mahamayi, Karumaari!
Mari, Muthumaari, Mahamayi, Karumaari!
O Mari, please come and bless us, you are our only refuge!
O Mari, please come and bless us, you are our only refuge!
Om Shakti Om, Om Shakti Om!
Om Shakti Om, Om Shakti Om!
