388. ETHTHANAI NAAVAAL PAADUVAEN (O for a thousand tongues to sing)

1.       Eththanai naavaal paaduvaen
          En meetpar thuthiyay!
          En aandavar en raajanin
          Maenmai makimaiyay!
2.       Paavikku unthan naamamo
          Aarokkiyam jeevanaam;
          Payamo thukka thunpamo
          Ottum yinkeethamaam.
3.       Umathu saththam kaetkunkaal
          Mariththor jeevippaar;
          Pulampal neenkum poorippaal,
          Nirpaakkiyar nanpuvaar.
4.       Oomaiyor, sevidorkazhlum,
          Anthakar, oonarum,
          Um meetpar! Pottrum! Kaettidum!
          Nokkum! Kuthiththidum!
5.       En aandavaa, en thaeivamae,
          Poolokam enkanum
          Pirasthaapikka um naamamae

          Paer aruzhl eenthidum.
