1.Oru koppayil yen kudiyiruppu,

Oru kola mayil  yen thunai iruppu,

Isai padalile  yen uyir thudippu,

Naan parppathellam azhagin chirippu.

1.My  living   is in side a cup,

A  pretty pea hen lives with me,

My vibrations of the soul   are in one musical song,

And whatever  I see  is the smile of beauty.

2.Kaviya thayin ilaya magan,

Kadhal  pengalin  perum thalaivan,

Pamara jathiyil  thani manithan –naan,

Padaippathanaal  , yen per iraivan.

2.The younger son of mother literature,

Is the great chief of ladies in love ,

He is a sinle man among ordinary people ,

And if I am going to create, my name would be God.

3.Manida inathai aati vaippen-avar,

Maandu vittal  athai paadi vaippen,

Naan nirantharamanavan azhivathillai-

Yentha  nilayilum  yenakku maranamillai.

3, I would shake    the  entire  human beings,

And if  death occurs , I would sing about it,

I am a permenant one and would never  get destroyed,

And under no circumstances I will face death.
