Tropical rain I am, crop in cultivation you are
Nectarous elixir I am, heavenly savour you are
You're my cane of support, should I ever cripple
O my witty living dream! effervescent thee, kannamma!
Outstretched arm I am, inestimable treasure you are
Staggering trove I am, abundant wealth you are
I shalt be ubiquitous, see thro' thy eyes - point thee!
O song's quintessence! crystal! mellifluous-Tamil thee, kannamma!
Luminous pole-star I am, silvery cold moon you are
Experiential school I am, wholesome lesson you are
Forthright smile of thee lightens my pitch-black dark
O pure-hearted! ingenuous! deep erudition thee, kannamma!
Cross-over yacht I am, fore-and-aft sail you are
Mother's lap refuge I am, supreme child blessing you are
You're my infallible remedy, should I ever fall ill
O my godsend-mum! miraculous succour thee, kannamma!
