1.SAdahshivam karam pathiya  sadanai   arasi,

Mahaankal  aasi petha  Maharasi ,

Illatharasiyai   matchimai  pethai,

Isai arasiyai   kolochinai

Oh queen of Achievers   who married  Sadashivam,

Oh  great queen blessed  by  very great  people,

You established   yourself   as the  queen of the home,

And  you   ruled    as   the queen of the   song.

2.Kathrellam un geetham kalakka   cheithai,

Kathukkul  thenaaga   paya cheithai,

Kuyil yena padddi, un isai mazhayil ,

Kuvalayathaye  kulikka  vaithai.

You made   your songs  merge  with   all winds ,

You made your songs flow  like honey  in our ears,

You sang like   a nightingale   and in the  your rain of songs ,

You made the  entire   universe  bathe.

3.Kurai ondrum illayendru  marai moorthi kannanidam,

Niraivu pada cholli , nee isaitha  padalai ,

I na sabhayile  athmathamai  arangethi,

Akilathaye   aat kondu  asara  vaithai

The song with full belief to , Krishna  the lord of the Vedas ,

That  “You do not have  any wants” was   sung by you ,

In the  UN  assembly as a  debut song  with full consciousness,

And  by that  made the universe  as yours  and started  it.

4.MS yendra  mandhira peyaraal  ,

Yellor manathayum eernthu  nindrai,

Padma  viruthukalaal   magudam   chooda patta ,

Bharatha  rethiname, Un paar pugazh vaazhiyave.

By the magical name   called  MS,

You attracted   the mind  of every one,

Oh Bharatha Rathna (gem of India) ,

Who  was crowned  by Padma   awards,

Let  your fame all over the world , live forever.
