Arunachalam's riddle song is the latest in town..
can only think of one other riddle song -

Poopoovah poothirukku, boomiyilae ahyirampoo, poovilae siranthapoo ennapoo? anbu...(Movie - no idea at all) - a trivia - this song must have been written before kushboo's time.

Anybody knows any other riddle songs?

Welcome Nisa,

I am seeing a New name in TFM DF.

Here there are lot of people who knows all about TFM. Soon you will get a list Wait for a day :)

I am not sure whether this is a riddle song or a straight forward Kelvi Badhil song.

Oruthi oruvanai ninaithuvittal andha uravukku peiyar yenna ?
Kaadhal
Andha oruvan oruthiyai manadhukondal andha uravukku peyar yenna ?
Kudumbam

I forgot the other lines ...

Arularasan its good to see that u remember the
'pudhiru poda vandhalaam 'song. Few yrs back
i was watching a very old film 'sabapathy'and i was surprised to see a song with almost similar lyrics.

vaanathile oru kall
boomiyile oru kall
arisiyile oru kall
vethiliaiyil oru kal

Ella Kelvi-Bhathil paadalgalum ithil serkkalaama or do you have specific rules to follow?

I will list the ones I remember now:

1. Aankaviyai vellavantha Pennkaviyey Varuga
Nee Arinthavatrai Marainthirunthu Sabaiyiniley tharuga

has lots of questions-answers with some puthirs

The lines PSusheela sings are full of puthirs and I don't remember all correctly. I will make an attempt now and will try to get the correct lyrics later( unless "Experts" beat me to it )

Thaathi Thoothu Thathithathu Thattai Sollaathu
......

2. From Idai-to-Paadal Puthir

Thanthana thathana thanthana thathana thaaney thanney thanthaana

(Varumaiyin Niram Sivappu)

More later

One Q- A song from
UNNA NENACHEAN PATTU PADICHEAN
Sung by IR and Malasia vasudevan

Song:

IR:
Yentha ooru kiliyaanalum ki-ki-ki-nnu kaththum...
Yentha ooru kuyilanalum koo-koo-koo-nnu koovum..
Yentha ooru naayanalum vallu-vallu-nnu kolaikkum...
Yentha ooru kaluthaiyaum kaalu-kaalu-nu kaththum...
aana...!
namma manusanukku....
manasanukku pala baasai yenanne?
idhukku munna vanthu pathila konjam sollanne...!
Malasia vasudevan:

What about the kaththi and aruvaal song?
From: NOV (@ 202.184.134.10) on: Mon Oct 20 06:08:36 EDT 1997

To avoid confusion:

Ulagathiley bayangaramaana aayutham yethu?
From: Nisa (@ passport.proxy.lucent.com) on: Mon Oct 20 08:24:32 EDT 1997

I was actually thinking of vidukathai songs but now realise poopoova itself is more of a Q&A song that plays on words....

I was hoping somebody would mention the vanathilae oru kal...song - thanks for the lines.

Kodi asainthathal - I was always tickled by that song as it's more of a pithatral than q&a - by the way, no answers are given in the song.

What's this vinnukku melahdai ? More lines would be helpful.

The thahlam song from varumayin niram sivappu- how does it come into the picture?

Looks like there's a dearth of riddle songs in tamil movies....guess riddles are for children only!!!
From: NOV (@ 202.184.134.10) on: Thu Oct 23 06:01:55 EDT 1997

Actually Nisa, there is no dearth - it's just that Makkal are totally involved in the Andhadhi thread!

People: I am looking for the lyrics of a song that was sung by Rajeshwari (the one with the voice of 5 year old). It is an oldie. It goes something like this:

Poopoovaa Parandhu Pogum
Pattupoochi Akka
Nee
Palapalannu Potiruppadhu ....

I am trying to teach my 4 year old daughter to sing this in her school. The event is next Friday May 9, 2003. So appreciate if you can e-mail me the responses by this week-end. Need a lot of prep. time (trust me...)
