Fate
Aakuuzhal thondrum asaivinmai kaiporul
Pokuuzhal thondrum madi
Perseverance pays good fate
Idleness shows gate
Pethai padukkum Izhauuzh arivagatrum
Agaluuzh utra kadai
Ill-fate brings ignorance sure
Well destiny pure
Nunniya noolpala karpinum matrumthan
Unmai arivae migum
Let him be learned
Yet what earned!
Iruveru ulagathu iyarkai thiruveru
Thelliar athalum veru
Knowledge possessor differs fatally
Wealth amassed totally
Nallavai ella antheeyavam theeyavum
Nallavam selvam seyarku
Fate decides wealth sought
Accordingly so got
Pariyinum aagavam palalla uyithu
Soriyinum poga thama
Destined yours will click
Not so bleak
Vaguthan vaguthavai allal kodi
Thoguthar kuithal arithu
Out of millions earned
Destined only turned
Thurapparman thuppura villar uratpala
Ootta kazhiyu menin
Turned renouncer fate hates
To pay rates
Nandrangal nallava kanbavar andramgal
Allat paduvathu evan
Good fortune brings smile
Other driven mile?
Uuzhi peruvali yavula matrondru
Chuzhinun dhan mundhurum
Faster than fate thought
Sooner ills wrought
