The song used is the famous Malayalam Lullaby "Omanathinkal Kidavo"
The lullaby was composed by Thampi at the request of the then ruler of Travancore, Maharani Gowri Lakshmi Bayi, to put the baby King Swathi Thirunal to sleep. His birth was a long awaited event for the royal family since it faced the threat of being annexed into British India under the Doctrine of Lapse for the want of a male heir. The lyrics of the poem reflect this sense of relief when it refers to the baby as a 'treasure from God' and 'the fruit of the tree of fortune'

Translation
"Omanathinkal Kidavo,"
Is he the darling baby of the moon?
"Nalla Komala Thamara Poovo"
Is he a very pretty lotus flower?
"Poovil Niranja Madhuvo, "
Is he the honey filled inside the flower?
"Pari poornendu thande nilavo"
Is he the soothing light of the full moon?
"Puthan Pavizha kodiyo"
Is he the newly formed coral reef?
"cheru thathakal konjum mozhiyo"
Is he prattling of the parrots?
"Chanjadiyadum Mayilo"
Is he the slowly moving peacock?
"mridhu panjamam padum kuyilo"
Is he the sweet song by the Nightingale?
"Ennunnikrishnan Janicho, Parilingane Vesham Dharicho,"
Is he the baby Krishna who has dressed like my baby?
