Friends,

great Lyrics in TFM by any Lyricist independent
of which Era in TFM!
Lyrics should be peculiar in writing, peculiar
in meaning, different in thinking, it has to be
different from the usual ones. It has to be
Unique in its approach/writing!

Keerthi Sir:
Nice Song!
kuRaikudam kulungi kulungi viLakkam solludhu
Indha karpanai nandraaga irukku generally it
will be used in a negative sense, kuraikkudam
niraya thalumbum, satham podum endru! Here it
is used in a postive sense, instead thalumbi
thalumbi viLakkam solludhu! :-))

Kanchana:
kOdhai enaik kaayaadhae kotRavaraik kaai veNNilaa
peNNaagiya ennaik kaayaadhae, ennaik koNda
mannavaraagiya ivaraik kaai, nilavae
iruvaraiyum kaayaadhae thanimaiyil Engaai veNNilaa
nilavae, nee engaL iruvaridamum kaayaadhu, engaLai
vittup pOi, un thanimaiyai eNNi Enguvaayaaga!
kOdhai enaik kaayaadhae kotRavaraik kaai veNNilaa
iruvaraiyum kaayaadhae thanimaiyil Engaai veNNilaa
I am thinking of another explanation here ....
Thalaivi thaniyaa utkaarndhu iruppaal ...
Thalaivan Oodaludan vaeLiyae poi nirppan ...
Naan Thalaivanai thaedugiraen, anaal avan dhaan
en mael kobam kondu odugiraan, Nilavae neeyum
oru peN allawaa, peNNukku dhaanae peN manadhu
puriyum, aagaiyaal avanai kaaithu (thanimayil
yaenga vaithu), eNNidam anuppi vai, avan ennidam
vandha piN nee thanimaiyil enguvaaiyaga! Nilavae! :-))))
Approm one more interpretation to the lines ...
uLLamelaam iLagaayoa ovvoru pEchchuraikkaayoa
un uLLam iLagi ennidam nee oru sollaavadhu
ennidam pEsa maattaayoa
Different meaning ....
uLLamelaam MiLagaayoa ovvoru pEchu Suraikkaayoa
Padathil varum ponnu andha payyan maela eppovumae
milagai maadhiri erinji vizhuvaal! But manadhukul
malai alavukku anbu vaithu iruppal!!
So adhukkudhaan andha maadhiri paaduraanga! :-)))
Ullam milagai maadhiri irundhu, erinju vizhundhaalum
atleast oru murai aayavadhu unnudaiya unmaiyaana
ullathai kaatti ennidam paesu endru solgiraan!

Yaar, Yaar, Yaar aval YaarO! ?
Yaen indha line-la Kannadhasan three times
Yaar endra vaarthai use panni irukkaru ?
Is it just to fill the tune or does it some
significance ?

Typo in my previous posting!
Yaar, Yaar, Yaar aval YaarO! ?
Yaen indha line-la Kannadhasan three times
Yaar endra vaarthai use panni irukkaru ?
Is it just to fill the tune or does it have some significance ?

Bhaskar:
Naan andha padathai paakaala, so the following is just based on the song and not the situation.
This usage could be to fill the tune, to make the syllable count equal to the next line "OOr paer thaan theriyaadho". Also, it's common poetic usage to repeat things for emphasis. E.g. Aangilathil "why oh why" etc., where a simple "why" would have sufficed.

Another example for your Oru murai dhaan
Kaadhal varum Tamizhar paN paadu
From Song: Valarndha kalai marandhu vittai
kaelada kaNNa!
Manadhil andre ezhudhi vaithaen theriyuma kaNNa!
Adhai marubadiyum ezhudha sonnaal mudiyumaa kaNNa!
These lines are very unique way of saying the
Tamizhar paN pAdu!

Bhaskar but what she really means is:
aiyyoo marupadiyum indha kadhaiyai sollaporen so beware:))
Savithri-dual role
Gemini loves savithri 1 and viceversa.Savithri2 loves gemini but hes not aware of her existence. In a train accident savithri2 takes savithri 1's place and savi1 turns amnesical:)?. Savithri1 is an artist
and she starts working on Geminis portrait.But due to the accident the portait remains incomplete.
Gemini,who marries savi2 insists her to complete the portrait.Adharkku dhan indha varigal
manadhil andrae ezhudhi vaithen theriyuma kanna
adhai marupadiyum ezhudha sonnaal mudiyuma kanna

one more song that had very decent,different lyrics by VM-'ravi varman ezhudhadha kalaiyo'from
'Vasanthi'
couple of lines are very unique like
'vizhi oram siru parvai podhum
naan vizhaiyadum maidhaanamaagum
idhazhoram sirippondru podhum
naan ilaippaarum kutraalamaagum
kai neetinai vandhu vizhundhen kannae
karunkoondhalil naan thulaindhen kaanae'
I reserve the next pallavi for 'pattimandram'

Adding another verse on the oru muRai theme:
oru kodiyil oru muRaithAn malarum malarallavA
oru manadhil oru muRaithAn vaLarum uRavallavA

Kanchana:
I fully agree that the song, kObam enna maNdu
kaNNaa that I posted here yesterday just has
good and simple lyrics. It should not be included
here as one of 'all time great lyrics'. But there
is a reason for posting it here. I liked that song
and wanted all of you to have a look at it; but
I didn't know where to post it. If I had posted
it in 'Review of New TFM' thread, none of you
would have seen it! :-))

The only song that is still being sung on the farewell day in every school,colleges..
'pasumai niraindha ninaivugalae'
(when we sang this song on our farewell day many of us were in tears,some were really uncontrollable)
pasumai niraindha ninaivugalae
paadi thirindha paravaigalae
pazhagi paditha thozhargalae
parandhu selgindrom naam parandhu selgindrom
kurangugal pole marangalin meedhe thaavi thirindhome
kuyilgalai pole iravum pagalum koovi thirindhome
varavu illamal selavugal seidhu magizhindhirundhome
vazhkkai thunbam arindhidadhu vazhndhirundhome naamae vazhndhirundhome
pasumai niraindha ...
(chitra, my classmate who was singing PSuseelas
part choked while singing the following pallavi)
endha ooril endha naatil endru kaanboma
endha azhagai endha vizhiyil kondu selvoma
indha naalai vandha naalil marandhupovoma
illam kandu palli kondu mayangi nirpoma naam mayangi nirpomo
pasumai niraindha ninaivugalae
paadi thirindh paravaigalae
pazhagi paditha thozhargalae
parandhu selgindrom naam parandhu selgindrom

oops the second pallavi should be
endha ooril endha naatil endru kaanbom0
endha azhagai endha vizhiyil kondu selvom0
indha naalai vandha naalil marandhupovom0
illam kandu palli kondu mayangi nirpom0 naam mayangi nirpomo

Here's an irritating digression, Ramki, I hear that the "pausmai niraindha" song has been replaced by "Musthafa Musthafa" in many campuses for the social breakup occasion.

Udhaya:
The digression is interesting!
Pasumai nirandha is really a piriyum
pasumai niraindha song! The song is sentimental in
Nature! Brings out the feeling of oneness in
everyone! You cry while listening to it as the
lyrics are so touching! Music scintilating!
What Ramki said is true, I too whenever listen
to the song get to remember my college days!
While Musthafa Musthafa is sOgamAna
Fun filled song. I become excited while listening
to the song as the wordings and the Music does
not produce the same feeling! :-))
ARR has made the tune that way just to make it
Catchy, it does not bring out the feeling of
seperation! I think the picturisation is also
done in a meaningless fashion! I forgot the
picturisation!

Udhaya & Ramki:
Forgot to mention one more thing!
In those olden days people were really leaving
each other and was worried when each other can
meet! In these days that worry is not there as
everyone comes to the USA somehow or the other!
All my 30 Classmates are here now in the USA!
I have all 30 Email-IDs and 60 Phone Numbers
both Work Phone Number and Home Phone Number :-)))
Pasumai niraindha ninaivugalae!
Paadi thirindha paravaigalae!
Pazhagi padittha thozhargalae!
Pasumaiyai Thaedi naam Ellorum!
Parandhu selgindrom, Naam USA parandhu selgindrom!
Parandhu selgindrom, Naam USA parandhu selgindrom!
So Don't Worry Ramki! Be Happy! :-)))))

Bhaskar do u believe that what we have here is pasumai??I dont think so...i will say its kaanal pasumai:)
Pasumai niraindha ninaivugale
paadi thirindha paravaigalae
pazhagi paditha thozargalae
pasumai izhakkindrom perum payanam thuvakkindrom
vazhkkai payanam thodangum neram
mugathai izhakkindrom
kaanal neerin kadalin adiyil muthukkal thedugindrom
porulum vasadhiyum thedi vandhu thaiyai marakkindrom
kanavil kooda andha sugathai kaana thayangugirom
naam kaana thayangugirom
