Time to have some more fun?
What is this lyrics potti huh?Well we have all been witnessing the hidden talents of many of our DFers in the lyrics area. So i decided why dont we
have a small competition in terms of lyrics.
What we need to do?
I will give a popular tune and explain the situation for which this particular song was written. All you have to do is come out with entirely different lyrics(but it should be apt for that particular situation).You should write atleast one pallavi and one charanam. Do not use
English words and please refrain from vulgarity(we have many kavignars in Tamil cine world for that). Whoever comes out with the best set will be
selected as the winner.(the winner will be selected on the basis of nadai, content and tamizh usage)
Who will select the winner??Its going to me(hehehe-easy job:))and Rajaraman.
The winner will be given the responsibility to chose the next tune(only the next) and situation and he will join the panel of judes(!!)to select the next winner.
We invite all of you to join the fun and expose your hidden talents to world of TFM fans:)
Do it now:)

Heres the next tune for you guys to show your lyrical(!) talents.
Tune: paalum pazhamum kaigalil aendhi
Situation: TB noyaliyaana manaivikku(nurse)adhuvum adhukku marundhu kandupidikkaadha kaalathil oru doctor kanavan avalukku sevai seidhu kondae paadum paadal
Since this is an old song some of you might not remember the original lyrics.. so to help you get the feel of the song flow heres the lyrics(charanam and pallavi only)
Paalum pazhamum kaigalil aendhi
pavazha vaayil punnagai sindhi
kola mayil pol nee varuvaiye
konjum kiliye amaidhi kolvaiye
pinju mugathin oli izhandhaiye
pesi pazhagum mozhi marandhaiye
anji nadakkum nadai melindhaiye
anna kodiye amaidhi kolvaiye
(once kamal said that this song can be sung with a single line-its absolutely true:))
ungal pulamaiye kanbiyungal..good luck!

Congrats Babu. Here is my try for Paalum...Pazhamum...
Pallavi
--------
naaLum pozhudum nalampera enni
pazhani koyil muruganai vaendi
vaana mazhai pol nee azhudhayae
vanji magaLae gunam peruvayae
Charanam
--------
panju udhattin kaLai kuraindhayae
konji paesum isai thavirthaayae
sundi izhukkum idai thalarndhayae
endhan kuyilae gunam peruvayae

Cheers Babu. Did you have to pick another Kannadhaasan goldie though? I feel sacriligious touching his tunes.
That being said, here's my version:
Pallavi
-------
kaalaik kadhirin thooimayaip poala
maalaith thendral magimayaip poala
soalai kulungum kaatchiyaip poala
nenjamengum niraindhiruppaayae
Charanam
--------
thaara varaththai koduththathanaalae
kaala varaththai eduththukkondaanaa
theipirayilum nilavu nilavae
idhayavaanai neengaa vadivae
sidebar: Did you guys realize that "Chinnach chinna aasai" and "Veedu Varai Uravu" are nearly interchangable based on their meter. Try singing them for each other's sandham, it's hysterical, especially if you sing "Chinnach Chinna Aasai" in a world weary TMS voice.

Hi guys!Heres mine..(I really found it very difficult not to be inspired by the original lines of KD,as they kept sounding at the back of my mind all the while!!)
Kaviyarasukku vandhanam!!
Manjal mugamum mangala vadivum,
kannil kanivum nenjil paneevum,
niraintha nilavai thunaiyaaik kondEn!
Mannil vinnin sugathaiyEk kandEn!
Thalarnthap pOthu aarudhal mozhiyaal,
thuvanda manathil thunIvai vallarththaai!
kOdai mazhaippol kuliravum vaiththU,
kovil silaiyaai kaatchiyum thanthaal!
Ariya marunthin irunda suvattai,
irulil kaana erintha sudarE!
thannai ninaikkath thavariya thaayE!

Hope to see more!

Thanks Udhaya & RR!
Without much ado,heres the next tune & situation chosen by Ramki & me.
Song:"Poongaathu thirumbumaa,enn paata virumbumaa"(Film:Mudhal Mariyaadhai)
Situation:-As given by Kavignar Vairamuthu :
"Manasukku oru gaayam erpadum pothellaam oru maaya karam vanthu marunthu pottuvittu pogirathu..Antha kambeera malai kalangi azhumpothellaam,kanukku theriyaatha suttu viral ondru thottu thudaikkirathu..mugam kaata marukkum kuyilin mugavari thedi manasu mathukkul sikiya thayiraai thaathallikirathu..Adiye penne! nee mattum aarudhal solvathaaiyirunthaal naan azhuthukonde irukkalaam polirukkigirathe!!"
This is a duetPen your lyrics,as usual for the pallavi and at least one charanam.
U are most welcome to add a touch of nativity to your lyrics!
In case u feel the need of the original lines for the building up of ur lyrics,here it is:
Pallavi:
Aan:Poongaathu thirumbumaa?En paata virumbumaa?
Paaraatta madiyil vachchu thaalaata enakkoru thaai madi kidaikkumaa?
Penn:Raasave varuthamaa?Aagayam surungumaa?
Engaathe atha ulagam thaangaathe!Adukkumaa,suriyan karukkumaa?
Ch:
A:Enna solluven,enn ullam thaangala
Metha vaangunen,thookatha vaangalla
P:Intha vethana yaarukkuthaan illa
Unna meerave oorukkul aal illa!
A:Etho enn paatukku naan paatu paadi
Sollaatha sogatha sonnenadi
P:Suga raagam sogamthaa..ne.eh.eh(2)
A:Yaarathu porathu?
P:Kuyil paadalaam,than mugam kaatumaa?!
Konjam,kashtamaana tune-thaan..Aana yosichu asathalaana varigaloda varuveenga-nnu engallukku nambikkai irukku!!All the Best to everyone!!

Chandrasekaran and Babu,
This is no exagerration, I prefer both your versions to the original. Don't mistake me, I like the original too, but I'm just overwhelmed by how pitch perfect both your versions are. I would be a real fool to compete in this song, but then we all know what a fool I am so will be back later. The stakes have definitely been raised several notches.

thanks udhaya, looking forward for your version.
