All the 12 Badaga months starting with Koodalu [given in Capital Letters] are beautifully integrated within the song.
Go here to listen to the songThe lyrics of the song go like this :-
Kappu huttileyu neppuna sundari,
Oppi hegileyu dhirachiya mundari
Kappu huttile naa hathuna notta dha,
Keppu na huttile ondhuna notta tha
Thatti beetha sileyu nee edhega,
Kottu beetha hennu naa edhaga
Muthu muthu mookathiga sokki hodhane, netti niddane
Sothu pathu neetha endhu kaathundhu endhe dha, matha hegu dha, madhuvaya matha hegudha,
KOODALU thinguvana koodile singarene ,
AALAANI thinguvatha aa aagi varasha mamma ,
NALLANI go kollaandhu hega beda, ,
AANI huttidha mele badhila hegine baa mamma ,
AADHIRE jena nodi bae thumbi maathaadu ,
AADI mudidha mele ododi bannane mamma,
AAVANI thinguvadhoge dhaavani singarava ,
Arattu perattu aara PERATTASI thinguvadha,
DODDA DIVIGEYA dodda kiru edhega ,
KIRU DIVIGEYA siri devi aagi banne ,
THAI mae thalaiga thatti kai yoda aatta paatta.
HEMMATTI ebbaneyu aemaathithindhu hoga beda ,
Thatti beetha sileyu nee edhaga ,
Kottu beetha hennu naa edhega

I am presently working for an engineering college at coimbatore as an english lecturer. since i have joined in this college i have a badaga friend who inspired me a lot. through him i came to hear about badaga songs and through I just downloaded many badaga songs. I was really inspired and excited when I hear those songs, especially the songs like
“balathandu kandu kalu,
mele akoriyega,
enne usare ninaga unippi illaya,
munthi munti vuppa,
gundadana hatti ogane,

Thank you for your answer. The word as I heard it in a dream and use it in a short story I wrote, is exactly the way you wrote it here, but I use it as a proper name for the main character of the story. The story is Ercalú Notovsky http://liricanocturna.wordpress.com/2011/01/14/ercalu-notovsky/
