தினம் தினம் புது தமிழ் இசைத்தனில்
உன்னை நான் பாடுகிறேன்
மனம் சிலிர்த்திட மழை விழும்
மலர்க்கொடி போல் ஆடுகிறேன்
ஆயிரம் தீபங்கள் நெஞ்சினில் இன்று
நானும் ஏற்றுகிறேன்
ஆனந்த வானத்தில் மேகத்தை போலே
நானும் நீந்துகிறேன்
நல்ல வாழ்க்கையை நாளும் யாசிக்கிறேன்
மனம் கோயிலில் உன்னை பூஜிக்கிறேன்
Every single day, in new Tamil music
I sing praise of you
With my heart thrilled, like rain falling

நதி என ஓடி
புகழ் மலர் சூடி
நன்மைகள் செய்யும் வரம் வேண்டும்
ஆயிரம் காலம் என் பெயர் வாழும்
அருளினை நீயே தர வேண்டும்
Running like a river...
Adorned with the flower of fame...
I seek the boon to perform good deeds
For a thousand eras... my name shall live...
You must grant me your grace
ராகங்களில் இசை வேதங்களில்
நல்ல ஞானம் நான் பெறவே
பாதங்களை உந்தன் நாமங்களை
நிதம் பாடுதே மனதே
இங்கு மெல்லினம் என்கின்ற பெண்ணினம்
மேம்புற வேண்டுகிறேன் இறைவா
நல்ல வாழ்க்கையை நாளும் யாசிக்கிறேன்
மனம் கோயிலில் உன்னை பூஜிக்கிறேன்
In ragas and musical scriptures
So that I gain divine wisdom
Your feet and your holy names
My heart sings daily
Here, the tender gender that is womanhood
I pray to God for its elevation
I pray every day for a good life
In the temple of my heart, I worship you
தினம் தினம் புது தமிழ் இசைத்தனில்
