Vaakundaam Nalla Manam Undaam is another simple and very beautiful hymn sung by Avvaiyaar on Lord Ganesha. Along with Paalum Theli Thaenum, this is also a very good mantra to teach kids. This mantra is usually taught to children who go to school seeking Lord Ganesha’s blessings to gain knowledge and wisdom and to excel in studies.
வாக்கு உண்டாம் நல்ல மனம் உண்டாம் மாமலராள்
நோக்கு உண்டாம் மேனிநுடங்காது – பூக்கொண்டு
துப்பார் திருமேனித் தும்பிக்கை யான் பாதம்
தப்பாமல் சார்வார் தமக்கு.
English Lyrics
Vaakku undaam nalla manam undaam maamalaraal
Nokku undaam meninudangaathu pookondu
Thuppaar thirumeni thumbikkai yaan paadham
Thappaamal saarvaar thamakku.
