2. Vaan puviyum kollaa svaami aalavae,

Avarmun nillaathu avai neengumae;

Naduk kulir kaalam theyva paalarkkae

Maathaa paal pul thaavum pothumaanathu;

Kaerupin seraapin thaalum avarkkae

Tholum aadumaadum pothumae

Thooya kaerooppa seraap soolath thanginum,

Paakkiya kannith thaayae naesa sisu thaan

Mukthi pakthiyodu tholuthaal

Manthai maeyppanaayin mari pataippaen

Njaani aayin njaanam konndu sevippaen;

Yaano enthan nenjam pataippaen
