Ootada Samaya

Bisi bisiyaada saaru
bisi bisiyaada anna
adare mele tuppa..
tuppada jote
ondishtu nage,ondishtu maatu..

Idu maneya
ootada samaya
Appa, Amma, Anna
yellara jote maataaduva samaya.

"Ondishtu anna badse"
"Amma neeru beku.."
"Anna nin tatte li saarigintha
tuppane teltha idyello"
"oye sumne oota maade
bari harte"

ee oota bari oota alve
maneyoru koodi jothey iruva
ondu nepa
Nenapina doni yali
eedu ondu nenapu

ootada samaya meeri hoytu.
oota madoru
samayadante baralilla
nagu maathu, aata
ondu nenapu
bari ondu sundara
Nenapu
