Kuzhal Inidhu Yaazhinidhu Enpadham / Makkal Mazhalaichchol Kelaa Thavar
English
The flute and lute are sweet they say Deaf to baby's babble's lay!
— 'The pipe is sweet,' 'the lute is sweet,' by them't will be averred,Who music of their infants' lisping lips have never heard
"The pipe is sweet, the lute is sweet," say those who have not heard the prattle of their own children
