    Thamizh Thaai Vaazhthu of Pondicherry starts like this:

    வாழ்வினில் செம்மையை செய்பவள் நீயே
    மாண்புகள் நீயே என் தமிழ் தாயே
    வீழ்வாரை வீழாது காப்பவள் நீயே!
    வீரனின் வீரமும், வெற்றியும் நீயே!

    Vaazhvinil semmaiyai seibaval neeye
    maanbugal neeye en thamizh thaaye
    veezhvaarai veezhaadhu kaappaval neeye
    veeranin veeramum, vetriyum neeye!

    தாழ்ந்திடு நிலையினில் உனைவிடுப் பேனோ
    தமிழன் எந்நாளும் தலைகுனி வேனோ
    சூழ்ந்தின்பம் நல்கிடும் பைந்தமிழ் அன்னாய்
    தோன்றுடல் நீ உயிர் நான்மறப் பேனோ?

    Thaazhn thidu nilaiyinil unai viduppeno
    thamizhan ennaalum thalai kuniveno
    soozhndhu inbam nalgidum painthamizh annaai
    thonrudal nee uyir naan marappeno?

    செந்தமிழே உயிரே நறுந் தேனே
    செயலினை மூச்சினை உனக்களித் தேனே
    நைந்தா யெனில்நைந்து போகுமென் வாழ்வு
    நன்னிலை உனக்கெனில் எனக்குந் தானே!

    Senthamizhe uyire narun thene
    seyalinai moochinai unakkaliththene
    naindha enil naindhu pogum en vaazhvu
    nannilai unakkenil enakkum thaane!

    முந்திய நாளினில் அறிவும் இலாது
    மொய்த்தநன் மனிதராம் புதுப்புனல் மீது
    செந்தாமரைக் காடு பூத்தது போல
    செழித்தஎன் தமிழே ஒளியே வாழி!

    Mundhiya naalil arivum ilaadhu
    moiththa nan manidharaam pudhu punal meedhu
    sindhaamarai kaadu pooththadhu pola
    sezhiththa en thamizhe oliye vaazhi!

    Enjoy this song in Bharathidaasan Paaattaruvi album by Nityashree in Sma****s.com.
    I am sorry I am not able to post that link here. :-(

    I didn't translate this song too as it is in very simple terms.

    Have you guessed the author of this vaazhthu..?

    Its author is none other than Puratchi Kavinyar Bharathidasan.

    That was beautiful poetry. I have read a lot of Bharathidasan's poetry but not this one.
    The words are so simple and you don't need a Konar Notes to understand the meaning. And yet they somehow touch your heart. Particularly to me, for I am back from Kamban Vizha where I heard the Solomon Pappiah group roar about Kamban for more than 2 hours.

    Thanks for bringing those beautiful lines to us, sis.

    வாழ்வினில் செம்மையை செய்பவள் நீயே

    வீரனின் வீரமும், வெற்றியும் நீயே!

    Dear Srini mam,

    Excellent!! You know what...my place of birth is Pondy cherry. And my mother had multiple opportunities to speak to Bharathidhsan sir and I remeber she showed her photo with him once long back.

    Happy to know my other Tamil Thaai Vazhthu.

    Great effort mam!!

    தமிழென்னும் அமுதக் கடலில்
    முத்துக் குளிக்க வந்தேன்
    தமிழ்த் தாய் வாழ்த்தினை
    படித்து அகமிக மகிழ்ந்தேன்!

    தமிழ் வாழ்க! தமிழார்வம் வளர்க!
    அன்புடன்,
    புஷ்பவல்லி

    Lalithabalu,
    Glad to note that you remember your daughters singing in school. But I came to know only about this vaazhthu only now.
