223. KARHTAR UM MAATCHI KARATHAAL (Thine arm O Lord in days of old)

1.       Karthar um maatchi karathaal

          Noi saavum neenkitrae;

          Suthaanka sukam jeevanum

          Um vaarthai nalkittrae;

          Anthakar oomai sevidar,

          Nirpantharaam kushtar,

          Nontha palvaeru rokasthar

          Naadorum vanthanar.

2.       Maa valla karam thodavae

          Aarokkiyam pettranar;

          Paarvai narsevi paechumae

          Pettrae thirumpinar;

          Maa valla naathaa, intrumae

          Marukum rokiyum

          Saavorum thankum saalaiyil

          Arokkiyam azhliyum.

3.       Aarokkiya jeeva naatharae,

          Neerae em meetparaai

          Aarokkiyam jeevan seerumae

          Aruzhlum thayavaai;

          Sareeram narseer nirainthu

          Um makkazhl yaavarum

          Sanmaarkka gnaanam uzhloraai

          Ummai thuthikavum.
