காதலி

un mugam ondraiye
uva mugandhu kaangindren;

undhan varnangalil
endhan tharunangal;

pala mozhi pesiye
pasi theertha podhaiye

arai nuzhainda udaneye
aravanaikka irrukaye

alli thandhu uravaadum
pallikoodam nee enakku;

alla alla kuraiyadha
atchayaa paathiramum nee enakku;

viral meetum veenaiyena
veetrirukkum vinveliye..

enakaachi unakaachi
ena irrukum ulagathil
enakaagave irrukindraai
en uyir tholaikaatchi
