Vanga kadalin orathilae
Sakthi velviyum nadakkuthamma
Indha velviyinaal en kelvikkellaam
Oorr vidaiyum kedaikkum ammaa
Vanga kadalin orathilae
Sakthi velviyum nadakkuthamma
Indha velviyinaal en kelvikkellaam
Oorr vidaiyum kedaikkum ammaa
Sakthi peedathin naayagan valarkkum
Saanthi velvi idhuthaan
Indha velviyil vilaiyum anbum amaidhiyum
Uyrigalukkellaam podhu thaan
Sakthi peedathin naayagan valarkkum
Saanthi velvi idhuthaan
Indha velviyil vilaiyum anbum amaidhiyum
Uyrigalukkellaam podhu thaan
En annanum unadhu pillaiyammaa
Avan idhayathil nimmadhi illaiyamma
Kannena ennai kaathavan vaazhvil
Punnagai pookka vendum ammaa
Ammammaa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa

Sakthi velviyum nadakkuthamma
Andha velviyinaal en kelvikkellaam
Oorr vidaiyum kedaithidumaa

Unai thaaiyena ninaitha seiyallavaa
Moola mandhiram uraitha vaaiyallavaa
Nambiya paavam naan seidhenadi
Kai vitta paavam nee seidhaai
Ammammaa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa
Vanga kadalin orathilae
Sakthi velviyum nadakkuthamma
Indha velviyinaal en kelvikkellaam
Oorr vidaiyum kedaikkum ammaa
Pennena pirandhu poovena malarndhu
Peiyaai thirindhen naan dhaan
Iru kan malar thirandhu karunaiyum pozhindhu
Thaaiyaai kaathaval nee thaan
Pettravar illaa pen pillai enakku

Oru bhakthanai manakka arul vaakkuraithu
Poo manam mudhitha thaai thaan
En naadhanai pirikka mudiveduthaai
Oru naagathai polavae vadiveduthaai
Ingu ooraar pazhikku iraiyaaga
Annan veedae enakkorr siraiyaaga
Annanin vaazhvum aanandham kaana
Amma nee thaan vazhi vagupaai
Innamum unnai nambidava
Verum kal thaan unnai kumbidavaa
Vanga kadalin orathilae
Sakthi velviyum nadakkuthamma
Andha velviyinaal en kelvikkellaam
Oorr vidaiyum kedaithidumaa
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through this sacred ritual, to all my questions,
An answer will surely be found, Mother.
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through this sacred ritual, to all my questions,
An answer will surely be found, Mother.
Kindled by the master of the Shakti Peedam,
This is a sacred ritual for peace.
The love and peace born of this ritual
Belong equally to all living beings.
Kindled by the master of the Shakti Peedam,
This is a sacred ritual for peace.
The love and peace born of this ritual
Belong equally to all living beings.
My elder brother is your child too, Mother,
Yet there is no peace in his heart, Mother.
In the life of the one who protected me like his own eyes,
A smile must bloom again, Mother.
Oh Mother, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through that sacred ritual, to all my questions,
Will an answer ever be found?
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through that sacred ritual, to all my questions,
Will an answer ever be found?
When the evening sun goes down in the west,
Does the eastern sky ever brighten with dawn?
While I sit here longing for a dawn,
What ritual are you holding over there?
When the evening sun goes down in the west,
Does the eastern sky ever brighten with dawn?
While I sit here longing for a dawn,
What ritual are you holding over there?
Was I not the child who looked upon you as a mother?
Was mine not the mouth that recited your sacred mantra?
The sin of trusting you is what I committed,
And the sin of abandoning me is what you committed.
Oh Mother, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through this sacred ritual, to all my questions,
An answer will surely be found, Mother.
Born as a woman and blooming like a flower,
I was the one who wandered like a lost soul.
Opening your gentle eyes and showering grace,
You were the mother who protected me.
For an orphaned girl like me with no parents,
You were my only kin in this world.
Giving your divine word to marry a devotee,
You were the mother who blessed my wedding.
Then you chose to tear me apart from my husband,
Taking the form of a serpent.
As I fall prey to the town's cruel blame,
My brother's house has become a prison for me.
For my brother's life to find happiness again,
Mother, you alone must show the way.
Should I continue to put my faith in you?
Or should I worship you merely as a lifeless stone?
On the shores of the Bay of Bengal,
A sacred fire ritual to Goddess Shakti is taking place, Mother.
Through that sacred ritual, to all my questions,
Will an answer ever be found?
