“To the work to the work”
- Velackku velackku daiva daasanmaar naam
Kristhan kaanicha paatha naam pinchellanam
Ingu vaazhuvaan alla shushrusha cheyvaan
Ihathil pirannu swargga raajaavu thaan
Yatnikka, yatnikka, theduka, neduka
Aashikka, praarthdikka karthaavu varum vegathil
- Velackku velackku chuttum nokkuka naam
Engum vaazhum assathyathe pokkuka naam
Sarvva srushtiyum yeshuve kaanum vare
Uyarthiduka naam sathyamaam kodiye-
- Velackku velackku daiva drohangalum
Vyaaja maarggangal naashathin mohangalum
Daiva bhoomiyil vardhikkunnor samaye
Swasthatha yogyamo kristhan daasanmaare!-
- Velackku velackku innu rakshayin naal
Enkilum nithyavum paapa shikshakalaal
Aayiram aayiram nashichidunnithaa
Rakshippaan rakshippaan en sahodaraa! vaa-
- Velackku velackku oro kashtangalum
Parihaasangal himsakal nashtangalum
Sahichum vahichum kondadhwaanikka naam
Ennaal naam kristhuvin sathya sevakaraam-
- Velackku velackku pinne swasthathayum
Karthan dasaraam naam nithyam aaswadikkum
En santhoshathilekku praveshikkuka
Ennu thaan arulicheyyum halleluyya!-

To the work, to the work! We are servants of God.
Let us follow the path Christ has shown us.

But to serve, though He is the King of heaven.

Really afford to sit back and rest?
