My current favourite songs are Manamadurai and Poo Pookkum Oasai from Minsara Kanavu and Chinna Kuyil Koovum from Yavarum Nalam (Yavarum Nalam songs deserve a separate post). Though I like the entire lyrics of all the 3 songs very much, my current favourite lines from two of those songs are related to rain and I just can’t stop humming those!
From Manamadurai:
thandhaane thandhaane maega kooTTam thandhaane
iDiyellaam taaLam dhaane
mazhai thuLi maNNil vandhu sindha chindha ezhugiradhe oru vaasam
adhu ennai vaanavillil koNDu saertthu viDugiradhe sila naeram
From Chinna Kuyil Koovum:
mazhai thuLi aayiram
kaDal maDi thaeDudhe
alaigaLaaga maaRi thuLLi aaDiDave
If only it rains here now, how great it would be! 🙂 And what a great respite it will be from the veyyil!
P.S.: Just as I was about to publish this post, I saw that Word had auto-corrected chinna of Chinna Kuyil to china and this old He-She was what I remembered immediately 🙂
Hmmm … Yes the lyrics were gr8 .. And with the effect we get a rain then its a Special feeling 🙂 🙂
Want rain too! Read a musician’s prowess in bringing rain thro his Amrithavarshini (Only 2 out of the umpteen times he sang it). Seriously considering inviting him over and make him try :-)!
We in bangalore are blessed that way! A week back, it was summer showers all over. Hope Madras gets respite soon.
Awww dats a kool collection from Rahman sir & i well remembered dat “china” stuff one of ma f’vrites from he-she [:)] ….
