Uchanthala regaiyilae machu vandi poguthamma
Vellakatti sailaiyilae pulla kutti poguthamma
Kannanguzhi pallakula thulli kudhichom
Vettukizhi saththathula mettu pudichom
Pogum vazhilae rendu paadhai inaiyudhae
Oru mannu paanyaai ada manasu udaiyudhae
Uchanthala regaiyilae machu vandi poguthamma
Vellakatti sailaiyilae pulla kutti poguthamma
Heyyy …ponnvandu kai yendhudhu
Vannam kettuthaan
Allithandu neer kekkudhu thaagamaa
Railu vandi kooda nadakkuthu
Pechu thunakki thaan
Kuyilu rendu koo koovudhu raagamaa
Uchiyila megama uppu mazha aagumaa
Kanmoodi vaalum maanidaaa unmai kelu
Ada oththa paalam dhaan
Rendu oora serkkudhu
Ada thandavaalama ingu oravu piriyudhu
Aala mara koondhal alaiyudhu
Seepu illaama
Paakku maram veththala kekkudhu sevapaaga
Keeripulla porvai theduthu
Thuna illaama
Kizhipulla yelam poduthu salikaama
Perukkulla eerama
Veppathula kaaiyumaa
Poiyodu pesum maanida unmai kelu
Rendu karaiya pudichu dhaan
Oru nadhiyum nadakkuthu
Ingu vidhiya pudichu dhaan
Kai velagi nadakkuthu
Uchanthala regaiyilae machu vandi poguthamma
Vellakatti sailaiyilae pulla kutti poguthamma
Kannanguzhi pallakula thulli kudhichom
Vettukizhi saththathula mettu pudichom
Pogum vazhilae rendu paadhai inaiyudhae
Oru mannu paanyaai ada manasu udaiyudhae
Uchanthala regaiyilae machu vandi poguthamma
Vellakatti sailaiyilae pulla kutti poguthamma
Along the lines on the crown of the head, a roofed cart travels, mother
Draped in a jaggery-white saree, little children go by, mother
In the hollow of dimpled cheeks, we leaped and played
From the chirping of grasshoppers, we caught a tune
Along the way, two paths come together
Oh, like an earthen pot, the heart breaks to pieces
Along the lines on the crown of the head, a roofed cart travels, mother
Draped in a jaggery-white saree, little children go by, mother
Hey... the golden beetle holds out its hands
Asking for colors to return
The water lily stem begs for water in thirst
The train walks right beside
Just for someone to talk to
Two cuckoos coo in sweet melody
Can a cloud high above ever turn into rain of salt?
O human living with eyes closed, listen to the truth
Look, a single bridge
Brings two towns together
Yet like railway tracks, relationships split apart here
The banyan tree's hair sways in the wind
Without ever needing a comb
The areca palm asks for betel leaf to turn bright red
The little mongoose searches for a blanket
Without any companion by its side
The little parrot calls out bids tirelessly
Is there any moisture inside a name?
Does it dry up in the scorching heat?
O human living with lies, listen to the truth
Only by holding onto both its banks
Does a river keep flowing forward
Yet holding onto destiny here
Hands slip apart and walk away
Along the lines on the crown of the head, a roofed cart travels, mother
Draped in a jaggery-white saree, little children go by, mother
In the hollow of dimpled cheeks, we leaped and played
From the chirping of grasshoppers, we caught a tune
Along the way, two paths come together
Oh, like an earthen pot, the heart breaks to pieces
Along the lines on the crown of the head, a roofed cart travels, mother
Draped in a jaggery-white saree, little children go by, mother
