You nag me about the proportion in thayir saadam
Yet always remember my weakness for vadaam/khaman
You showed me paths when mine were unclear
Drove me all the way when the college bus disappeared

You lead with clarity, conviction and sight
Teaching me to value basics that anchor me right
Stay healthy, stay happy, forever stay young
I will always be your kutti girl no matter how far I have run.

Happy 70th!
