Yen Kanmun Vandhu Nee Vilayadu Kanna,
Vun Azhagai Naan Kaana Varuvai Kanna.
Yashodhai Mun Nee Seida Jaalangalai,
Yen Kanmunnum Vandhu Seivai Kanna.
Yashodhaikku Koduththa Anandhaththai,
Yenakkum Nee Vandhu Tharuvai Kanna.
Yen Kanmun Vandhu Nee Vilayadu Kanna,
Vun Mahimayay Naan Pugazha Varuvai Kanna.
Gopiyargal Mun Nee Vaasiththa Kuzhalai,
Yen Kaadaiyyum Kaetka Vyppai Kanna.
Yen Kanmun Vandhu Nee Vilayadu Kanna,
Naan Vun Pugazhai Paada Varuvai Kanna.
Vun Kayyil Vaiththirukkum Vennaiyin Suvayai,
Yen Naakkaiyum Rasikka Veyyum Kanna.
Vundhan Deivika Vaasanaiyai
Yen Naasiyum Magizha Vendum Kanna.
Yen Nenjill Vunmel Irukkum Bhakthiyay
Valarka Yenakku Vazhi Kattum Kanna.
Yen Kaigalal Undhan Padangalai Panindu,
Sharanagathi Adaya Vendum Kanna.
Yen Kanmun Vandhu Nee Vilayadu Kanna,
Yenakku Vishvaroopa Darishanam Tharuvai Kanna.
Vunthan Alavilla Karunaiyai Veiththu
Yenakku Swargaththil Idam Tharuvai Kanna.

Genesis of this song
My cousin, Dr. M.O. Thirunarayanan from Miami, was returning home in July, 2013 on a cross-country red-eye flight after visiting us
in California, when the lyrics for this beautiful, endearing song on Baby Krishna just started flowing effortlessly in his mind.
Over the next few years, he worked with us all to embellish the lyrics even further, resulting in this finished song.
We hope you will enjoy listening to the different renditions of this song above.
