If I sat down compiling the list of movies that would make my all time favorite list...well that would take some effort. As I do that, I would like to share one of my favorite songs, with awesome poetry as its lyrics, wonderful music in the eternal voice of SPB..The song is from the movie which is severely underrated "Anbe Sivam"...and Iam sure those fortunate enough to have seen the movie would vouch for the fact that it was one of Kamal Hassan's best performances off-late and agree to the fact of how a good actor like Madhavan can raise his bar when he's put on the same frame with the best..Halo Effect or Inspiration....the movie is simply superb...
The song which again is as underrated as the movie goes like this :
Mounamae paarvaiyaay paesi kondoam,
Naanamae (shyness) vannamaay poosi kondoam,
Punnagai putthagam vaasikkindroam,
Yennillae unnaiyae swaasikkindroam,
Ithu ullam pala vannangalai allum,
Sila ennangalai sollum, thullum, kannammaa,
Mounamae paarvaiyaay paesi kondoam,
Naanamae vannamaay poosi kondoam, kannammaa...
Jananam thanthaal, salanam (confusion) thanthaal,
Kaadhal moliyil (language),
Maranam konjam, mayakkam konjam,
Oonthan tharavil,
Endrum vaalga vaalga intha naerangal,
Sugam saerga saerga varum kaalangal,
Malar soolga soolga ivar paadhaigal,
Dhinam velga velga ilam aasaigal,
Oru seiythi, adi nee enbathenn paathi,
Ini naan enbathum meethi, thaethi sollammaa,
Mounam paarvaiyaay...
Mounamae paarvaiyaay paesi kondoam,
Naanamae vannamaay poosi kondoam,
Ilakkanam udaitthathum kavithai varum,
Iravinai thudaitthathum kanavu varum,
Swarangalai thiranthathum isai malarum,
Oonarvilae karainthathum kalai valarum,
Moli thoandraatha kaalatthil nulainthaal aena?
Vili jaadaigal paesiyae nadanthaal aena?
Endrum vaalga vaalga intha naerangal,
Sugam saerga saerga varum kaalangal,
Malar soolga soolga ivar paadhaigal,
Dhinam velga velga ilam aasaigal,
Oru vellinatthai vallinamum kai saera,
Unn kaampiyatthai (literature) tholi, oonthan kannaalae paesu,
Mounamae paarvaiyaay paesi kondoam,
Naanamae vannamaay poosi kondoam,
Punnagai putthagam vaasikkindroam,
Yennillae unnaiyae swaasikkindroam,
Ithu ullam
pala vannangalai allum,
Sila ennangalai sollum
thullum
kannammaa
I tried to translate it to English....The stuff is best when understood in tamil but still this is how it would nearly translate to...
We Talked to one another with silence as our eyesight
We Painted the color of shyness on us
We are reading the book of happiness
We are Breathing 'you' in 'me'
This Soul, gathers many colors
It tells us of some desires and incites them o dear
We got a life, we got confused
In the language of love
A bit of lifelessness, a bit of drowsiness in your arms
Let this moment live forever
Let the happiness reach for future times
Let flowers bloom in their paths
Let the young desires win everyday
O dear you are one half, now Im the other half, so tell me the date (of union)
Breaking the literature gives poetry
Swiping the night gives dreams
Music blooms by the opening of the swaras
Milking of the feelings gives rise to art
What if we enter the time where language cannot be seen ?
What if we act by the conversation our eye movements has ?
Let this moment live forever
Let the happiness reach for future times
Let flowers bloom in their paths
Let the young desires win everyday
Let the hard and soft notes shake hands
And a drop of drop of your literature, speak with your eyes o dear
We Talked to one another with silence as our eyesight
We Painted the color of shyness on us
We are reading the book of happiness
We are Breathing 'you' in 'me'
This Soul, gathers many colors
It tells us of some desires and incites them o dear
