Kannamma Quotes

“kaatruveliyidai kannamma
nindran kaadhalai yenni kalikkindren
amudhootrinai otha idhazhgalum
nilavoori thadhumbum vizhigalum

pathu maatru ponnotha nin meniyum indha vaiyathil yaanula mattilum yenai
vetru ninaivindri thetriye ingor
vinnavanaaga puriyume..
indha kaatru veliyidai kannamma nindran kaadhalai yenni kalikkindren

nee yenathinnuyir kannamma
yendha neramum nindranai potruven
thuyar poyina poyina thunbangal
ninai ponnena konda pozhuthile
yendran vaayinile amudhoorudhe
kannamma yendra per sollum pothile
uyir theeyinile valar jothiye nidran
sindhanaiye yendhan sithame indha kaatru veliyidai kannamma nindran
kaadhalai yenni kalikkindren”
