Representative Text

1 குன்றிப்போகா விஸ்வாசமே,
சூழ்ந்தேகும் யாராலும்,
விளிம்பில் நடுங்கி சாயாமல்
நின்றேகும் பூவினில்.

2 புலம்பிடாதே காத்திடும்,
கண்டிக்கும் கோலண்டை,
துக்கத்துன்பம் வருங்காலை
அண்டுமவர் பாதம்.

3 பிரகாசிக்கும் மா தெளிவாய்,
சோதனை நேரமே,
ஆபத்திலே அதஞ்சாமல்
இருளின் போதிலும்.

4 உலகின் சீற்றம் மூழ்காதே,
இன்ப மகிழ்ச்சியும்,
பாவ கடலிலும் மூழ்காதே
எப்பேராற்றலுமே.

5 இருளிலும் சந்தேகியா,
கடின பாதையில்,
முடிவின் காலம் தாங்குமே
மெய்யொளி விஸ்வாசம்.

6 தாரும் இவ்வாராம் விஸ்வாசம்,
என்ன நேர்ந்தாலுமே,
ருசிப்போம் மெய் சமாதானத்தின்
இன்பம் விண்வீட்டிலே.

ஆமேன்
