↻ English translation
Vetri vetri endru sollum
Koiyil mani… muthammaa
Sutri sutri vandhu engum
Ketkumadi muthammaa
Ninaikkaadha pirivum
Nilaikkaamal vilagum
Idhu nedungaala payanam
Payanam payanam
Vetri vetri endru sollum
Koiyil mani… muthammaa
Sutri sutri vandhu engum
Ketkumadi muthammaa
Kaadhal enum sangu
Kandeduthu vandhen
Omkaara osaiyilae
Mei marandhen naanum
Aagaaya gangai
Aadi vara kanden
Aanandha velaiylae
Neendha vandhen naan
Porkaalamae en maadam
Thaedi vandhadhae
Nirkkaamalae ennai
Pan paadi vandhadhae
Mayil thogaiyae
Oru mani veenaiyaai
Layam maaraadhu
Nee meettu raajaa
Vetri vetri endru sollum
Koiyil mani… muthammaa
Sutri sutri vandhu engum
Ketkumadi muthammaa
Vaana radham yeri
Mannulagam thaandi
Vaiboga oorvalamaai
Poi varalaam vaa
Sorgapuri serndhu
Indhiranai paarthu
Vaangaadha varangal ellaam
Vaangidalaam vaa
Mai poosidum kan paarvai
Vaadi nindradho
Mandhaarap poo pon vandai
Thaedi nindradho
Suga bodhaiyil indha suba velaiyil
Nalla thaenaatril neeraatta vaa
Vetri vetri endru sollum
Koiyil mani… muthammaa
Sutri sutri vandhu engum
Ketkumadi muthammaa
Ninaikkaadha pirivum
Nilaikkaamal vilagum
Idhu nedungaala payanam
Payanam payanam
Vetri vetri endru sollum
Koiyil mani… muthammaa
Sutri sutri vandhu engum
Ketkumadi muthammaa
The temple bell that calls out "Victory, victory",
Muthamma...
Echoing all around,
it can be heard everywhere, Muthamma!
Even the separation we never imagined
will fade away without lasting.
This is a lifelong journey,
a journey, a journey!
The temple bell that calls out "Victory, victory",
Muthamma...
Echoing all around,
it can be heard everywhere, Muthamma!
A conch shell called love,
I found and brought with me.
In its sacred, echoing sound,
I forgot myself completely.
I saw the heavenly river
dancing as it flowed.
In this moment of pure joy,
I have come to swim.
A golden era has come
looking for my home.
Without ever stopping,
it came singing a melody for me.
Treating my peacock feathers
like a precious veena (string instrument),
without missing the rhythm,
play the tune, my king!
The temple bell that calls out "Victory, victory",
Muthamma...
Echoing all around,
it can be heard everywhere, Muthamma!
Riding a chariot in the sky,
crossing beyond this earthly world,
like a grand, joyful procession,
come, let us go and return!
Reaching the realm of heaven,
meeting Indra (king of the gods),
all the blessings we never received,
come, let us claim them!
Did the gaze of your kohl-lined eyes
grow weary and fade?
Did the mandhaaram flower
wait searching for the golden beetle?
In sweet bliss, at this auspicious time,
come and bathe me in a river of honey!
The temple bell that calls out "Victory, victory",
Muthamma...
Echoing all around,
it can be heard everywhere, Muthamma!
Even the separation we never imagined
will fade away without lasting.
This is a lifelong journey,
a journey, a journey!
The temple bell that calls out "Victory, victory",
Muthamma...
Echoing all around,
it can be heard everywhere, Muthamma!
