Potti Pottu Uzhaippom ThangaWe work hard, competing with ourselves.
Potta Kattilum Ootha SurakkuraWe can make a spring flow from a dry wooden bed,
Viththa Karanga NangaWe are people of great skill.
Vazha Porandha Koottam NangaWe’re a people born to live,
Veguliyana Jananga ThangaAn innocent people, pure as gold.
