Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Engal sindhaiyenna umakku puriyadhadha
Magan thandhai paasam nee ariyadhadha
Adhu marumagal nalam kaana mudiyathatha

Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Engal sindhaiyenna umakku puriyadhadha
Magan thandhai paasam nee ariyadhadha
Adhu marumagal nalam kaana mudiyathatha

Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Pillai unnai thandhai adithaanillai
Nee pizhai sonna podhum pirithaan illai

Valli kurathiyaiyum maruthaan illai
Valli kurathiyaiyum maruthaan illai
Avalai manandhadhal unniayum veruthaan illai
Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Inam sera kulam sera malar soodinen
Serndhu irundhorai pirikkindra pazhi thedinen
Inam sera kulam sera malar soodinen

Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Kulamaadhin panbukku naalayudham

Kondu varvendum uravennum velayudham velayudham
Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
Engal sindhaiyenna umakku puriyadhadha
Magan thandhai paasam nee ariyadhadha
Adhu marumagal nalam kaana mudiyathatha
Mudiyathatha
Sivan magane unakku theriyadhadha
