Sri

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii :

A flower that has not fully blossomed ..
Like a half dawned day

You were born to rule... conquering many
people will offer you dowry ........to take your hand for their son
they will offer luxuries to marry you

Being the daughter of your uncle's sister
people will be ready to buy the world for you.

Brought up, covered in a soft quilt, do I tell you the story
of how I brought up my favourite daughter
A dream I never dreamt
should I tell you the story of your birth.

Like the iris of the eye and the shadow of the bead
we grew up together
Even if the soil, sea and the sky are forgotten
no one can forget our relationship, nor separate us.

Haan ab to theek hai Tomorrow I can u/l song 18 after u u/l 17

Me is gonna nag Sriji aaj

N

Ps: Sriji I found the next song.. so dont worry have done the needful.

17 Maasila unmai, A M Rajah_P Bhanumathy, Alibabavum 40 thirudargalum 1956, V Dakshinamoorthy_A Maruthakasi
This film was Alibaba and the forty thieves - this song is the same tune as a Hindi song same tune as 'Ae saba unse keh zara' - Rafi Lata, Chitragupt, Ali baba and forty thieves 1954
Tamil film starred MGR and Bhanumathy - she herself is singing this song along with A M Rajah.

THANKS !!

thanks kahe ke insult na kijiye

nimii,
really...you have no idea how much stress you have relieved me of ....by taking up this thread as your own !! as it is i was reeling with the after effects of the marathon naushad program...then another one on MM that i've planned to put together now for the 25th !! Plus one bonus program in between - this saturday !

you see, i dont normally take up more than i can handle comfortably...and i had not planned for the naushad program....that happened only because he passed away suddenly....and i just couldn't let the moment pass without expressing my feeling for his music. and suitably honouring this great composer..so it was a very special unplanned program which required an enormous amount of effort from my side.
you have contributed substantially to the maintenance of my sanity during this period - because i would not have liked to leave this Tamil songs thread unfinished !!

saying 'thanks' is only a small way of expressing this thought !!

sri

Sriji no no no no Thanks to me

Idhu enn kadamai nam thamizh makkalkaaguh

Mundrezhuthil enn muchh irukkum...........

KADAMAI ENN KADAMAI

now me is going to nag Nimii !!

song no 18 Nimii - upload pannu....only then i can u/l song no 19 !!

Sri

18 Unnai kaanaatha kannum, P Susheela, Idhaya kamalam 1965, K V Mahadevan_Kannadasan
A haunting song ...from the Hindi equivalent of 'Mera Saaya'
This film 'Idhaya kamalam' directed by L V Prasad starred Ravichandran and K R Vijaya
Synopsis :

Music for this film was composed by another leading music director K V MAHADEVAN

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii

A sight without you, is not a sight worth seeing
The thought without you in it, is not a thought
The word not spoken by you, is not a word
Without you, I am not myself

You are a part and I am a part (ada adaa )
If one part goes missing it is sheer suffering
The seasons might change, the sights may change
But in love you and I are not separate..

M S Viswanathan speaks and introduces the next song and its singer A L Raghavan...saying he introduced him in the face of a lot opposition...but he came through !!

19 Engirunthaalum vaazhga, A L Raghavan, Nenjil ore aalayam 1962, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan

This film Nenjil oru aalayam (Dil mein ek mandir) written and directed by Sridhar, was made in 28 days...and was later made by him into Hindi in 1963 ...no marks for guessing the name of the Hindi film !
A L Raghavan became well known with this song......couldn't figure out easily what the Hindi equivalent of this song must have been, though

Synopsis (courtesy Nimii)
Wherever you live may you live in peace
May you live prosperously and a happily wedded woman


Sri

Sriji song no. 20 hai mere paas Will upload kal ok?

N

20 Ninaipathellaam nadanthuvittaal, P B Sreenivos, Nenjil oru aalayam 1962, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
One of my favourite tunes.....from the same film 'Nenjil oru aalayam' - a lovely composition indeed
P B Srinivas sings for Muthuraman on screen
The Hindi equivalent of this may have been 'Yaad na jaaye beete dinon ki' ...though the lyrics have different meanings

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii

There would be no God if everything were to happen the way we want
If one keeps thinking of past, there would be no peace
A story that has ended does not continue in God's books
The story that continues does not end in man's home..

Where does life begin and where does it end
No one is sure if this is the path or if this is the journey
Paths will change, journeys will change
If one understands this, the confusion will clear


The film stars : Kalyana Kumar, Muthuraman , Manorama , Devika and Nagesh

21 Enna enna vaarthaigalo, P Susheela, Vennira adai 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
The film Vennira aadai 1965 starred

What kind of words are these !!
That's not my opinion (though it could well be!!) .....those are the actual lyrics

My suggestion - just enjoy the song !!

I am completely unable to provide a synopsis here...
Let me reproduce Nimii's original translation here - for those interested

What kind of wordings..
In my eyes
I finally finished telling the tales
Whatever tale I told I couldn't understand
I looked at you and smiled
I thought all kind of things
I thought of myself and got restless
I developed thoughts (of you)
Whether a feminity will flower (is ke illava they don't know anything else )
Or would it take time to flower
Whether it would be milk with honey
Moon I know you
There will be a day I will come there
I will flower if I do there
Else I would disappear like dew
It is me.. is the truth
There is no YOU
Do I tell US

OK ...here's the CD rip of song no 21
21 Enna enna vaarthaigalo, P Susheela, Vennira adai 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
CD rip @ 128 kbps; 3:17

This was filmed on the ex-CM of Tamilnadu - Jayalalitha - her first film


Sri

ayyo cd rip size is smaller that my product

N

happens....when you add extra 'noise' !!!
unless your track has an extra verse - check the duration
..or it may be running at slow speed ...so longer duration.....many possibilities !!!!

sri

Ayyo I didnt add any noise I removed the extra space at the end of the file !!!!!!!!!!!! avvaluvu thaan senjchen

check the duration of the track

3:35 minutes Sriji.. and it had tapered to silence .. (which I removed)

N

if the speed is correct......then it must be an extra verse or line repeats in the song, because my CD rip was 3:17
in which case... it will be the usual tradeoff between quality and quantity - which we encounter here so many times!!!


Sri
added later : i checked the two tracks for song #21 - my track from the CD ends a little quickly - the starting verse which is repeated at the end has been faded out early..while in your track it continues a little longer - that's the difference.

22 Naanamo innum, P Susheela _T M Sounderrajan, Aayirathil oruvan 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
Around the time this film was made, MGR and Kannadasan became political adversaries...and many producers switched to using Vaali as the lyricist, fearing the reaction of MGR fans
But the two remained 'professional' in the world of films ....and MGR was quite happy to have Kannadasan writing some of the lyrics for this film, where other lyricists failed to impress him.

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii

Are you so shy ?
Do you need to do this gesturing act
What does that look say
Are you so shy?

Are you so shy
In front of the lover who seeks you
A feminity that looks forward to great day (marriage)
Are you so shy?

That which is not visible in the eyes of men
That which does not change with the change of seasons/period
A male-lover looks for in his love
A female-lover closes her eyes .. it is that {headbang !! what is that }

When it happens it causes alcholic intoxication
When it does not happen it pricks the heart
That changes the mind on a daily basis
That which is searched in the eyes of a seer.... it is that!

Music director M S Viswanathan introduces the next song
23 Kannan varuvaan, P Susheela, Panchavarna kili 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan

This is a lullaby from the film 'Panchavarna kili' ( Five-coloured parrot - like a Macao ) starring Jaishankar, K R Vijaya

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii

Lord Krishna will come and will tell us story
He will rock us in a beautiful floral cradle
He will play a tune on his flute
He will feed milk in a cup (made of a special conch)

A relationship was spun between you and me
A gain in both our accounts
We fell for each other's voices
And the truth was hidden in that

24 Naalaam naalaam, P B Sreenivos_P Susheela, Kaathalikka neramillai 1964, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
'Kathalikka neramillai' 1964 ( Fall in love anytime ) was a very popular and hilarious film, directed by Sridhar, starring Muthuraman, Ravishankar, Kanchana etc
This was later re-made into a Hindi film - Pyar kiye jaa 1966 - with Kishore Kumar, Shashi Kapoor., Kalpana etc - this was also directed by Sridhar

Translation - courtesy Nimii :
It is the day when the lass and lad wed
Young maiden arrives by Lord Indra's chariot of clouds

The bridgegroom in a happy swinging mood while
The bride rests on his chest
It is a moment of many loving acts
It is cupid's poem
While one is a tune the other one is a beat
Their togetherness produces the song…

This is the secret of youth
It a surprise that came with Nature
There have been many who have lived and experienced it
We are another legend..
Our youth may go and we may grow old
But our love will never change..

25 Tamizhukkum amudh enru per, P Susheela, Panchavarna kili 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Bharatidasan
Another song from Panchavarna kili - written by Bharatidasan

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii :
Another name for Tamil, is Nectar
That pleasurable Tamil is our life

Tamil is honey, it is perfume
This sweet Tamil is also life-giving water for our society

Tamil is the arm for the popular poets
This sweet Tamil is the lamp that gave us light in our difficulties

Tamil is the mother of our birth
This sweet Tamil is the catalyst to our prosperity

With reference to the above song ...and the next one :
Bharathidasan (April 29, 1891 - April 1, 1964; also spelt Bharatidasan) was a twentieth century Tamil poet and rationalist whose literary works handled mostly socio-political issues. His writings served as a catalyst for the growth of the Dravidian movement in Tamil Nadu. In addition to poetry, his views found expression in other forms such as plays, film scripts, short stories and essays. He was mentored by Mahakavi Subramanya Bharathi (after whom he called himself "Bharathidasan"). But Bharathidasan, unlike Bharathi rarely used words derived from Sanskrit in his works;also Bharathidasan's works were more political.

Bharathidasan has penned lyrics for several film songs such as `Vennilavum vaanum pole... ' from the movie Kalyanam Panniyum Brahmachari, `Thunbam nergaiyil inbam... from Or Iravu, `Thamizhikku amudhendru per... ' from Panchavarna Kili and `Sange muzhangu... ' from Kalangarai Vilakkam. He has also written the story, script and songs for films including Valaiyapathi, Aayiram Thalaivaangiya Apoorva Sindhamani, Aadhithan Kanavu.

26 Azhagan murugan ®, P Susheela, Panchavarna kili 1965, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Bharatidasan
One more song I like from Panchavarna kili - this one which I got, turned out to be a 'revival' version !

Synopsis - courtesy Nimii :
Invocation to Lord Muruga (Karthikeya, Saravana).

I desired the handsome Lord Muruga
I offered a flower of love at his altar
I took birth to be related to him
I grew up to receive his blessing

An evening when it is foggy in His abode
A time when fruit is pecked by birds
A maiden's heart was stolen by him

He who lives in the mountains
He who rides and arrives on a peacock
If I sing soul stirringly to him He will give himself to me
I turned like a wave over and over
I melted as if on hot embers
When I touched his hand.....I felt most beautiful

I desired the handsome Lord Muruga

Motor Sundaram Pillai 1966 starred Sivaji Ganesan, Sowkar Janaki, Ravichandran, and JAYALALITHA

This song picturised on Ravichandran and Jayalalitha

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii :
SHE
Earnestly awaiting eyes, a heart that spins tales
A heart that overflows with a flood of desire

HE
Two moons in your eyes, you are one who tells stories
There is no honeymoon if you and I are not there

HE
When I touch you with my finger tips why does your flower-like face turn red
If you cover your face with both your hands, I find the whole world darken

SHE
To take the nectar from my red lips why do you enact a drama
Just call me beside you and take me in your arms and give me that state of ecstasy..

29 Oru naal yaro, P Susheela, Major Chandrakanth 1966, V Kumar_Vaali

Major Chandrakanth 1966 starred Sunderrajan, Muthuraman, Jayalalitha
The film was also made in Hindi as Oonche Log ..which somehow got released earlier in 1965
This was a major break for music director V Kumar...and with every delay in the film he would get worried that some other MD may be called to replace him ! But AVM's son, Saravanan stood by him ..and the music was a hit.

The interlude music resembles that of O mere shah-e-khuba - Love in Tokyo

Partial translation - courtesy Nimii :

One day someone taught me a song
A tune in my eyes and a beat in my heart
So he said, my dear friend

My eyes turned red
My red lips paled a little
The sleep vanished from eyes
Filled with so much intoxication
My mind feels like telling you
...but does not disclose the truth

Nimii - I was playing some songs from this program y'day ...only namma Lata was listening at that time, i think

Sri

Yes Sriji I saw it. I didnt logon coz my system has become very slow. Unable to run more than one or 2 applications at a time.

If I switch on the winamp the browser starts hanging

Me u/l all the pending files now and will make the post visible each per day so that it would save me the time.

N

good idea !! only you can do that na !!

Sri

Yes Sriji Aur main kya karun I am going crazy locating files. So many u/l pendings. Gotto keep my promise if not anything else

The film, in my opinion, belonged to Sunderrajan and Nagesh ! The scenes between them are just terrific
.. so are some scenes between Nagesh and Jayalalitha in the first half.
and only KB can "risk" casting Nagesh in such a role and get away with it !!

I havent seen the Hindi version -- Oonche Log. I wonder how it turned out

30 Unnai ondru kaetpen, P Susheela, Puthiya paravai 1964, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan
Sivaji films production - starring Sivaji Ganesan, Saroja Devi, Sowkar Janaki


Partial translation - courtesy Nimii :
If I ask you something will you tell me the truth
If I am asked to sing what would I think of singing?

It is not yet time to sing a love song
..and, I am not yet a mother to sing a lullaby

I sing when in solitude but in public I go mute
Relationship is a tune, Life is a passion
A heart filled with love but no experience
If I am asked to sing what would I think of singing?

i remember seeiing the film a looong time back - *ing Ashok Kumar (as Major Chandrakanth), Raaj Kumar (as Srikanth), Feroz Khan (as Rajnikant) and Tarun Bose i think (as the one who's hiding in the house) - and i remember it to be a well acted film.
Though the mention of Oonche log - always triggers remembrance of that great Rafi song 'Jaag dil-e-deewana', more than anything else......for me !!

Sri

Yes Sriji ....I was listening to it ......I am not a huge fan of Tamil songs [ Vivek ...dont say another word ] but wahtever you have played so far ....... I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to them ...You've got impeccable taste for music Sriji .....That reminds me....SPB is coming to our town...shud I or shud I not attend his prg?

SPB coming to Chandler !!!! and u r asking if u shd attend his prog ??

Yes, attend if possible and if the tickets arent too pricey. I would love to attend at least one of his LIVE concerts.... he has some wonderful melodious songs to his credit.... hope he sings a few of them.

Anyone else accompanying him ?

well that depends...on how much you like him. Since you are asking...i will presume that you are not a very great fan of his.
If you like some of his songs and the tickets are not too expensive - then you should go
Alternately, if the tickets are inexpensive...then also you should attend
Other scenarios may not be worthwhile for you.

See the chart below for deciding.....
Green means GO
Red means DON"T GO
Gray --> invalid option (since you do not appear to be a great fan)
Yellow means 'toss a coin'

Sri

hehehe....Thanks Sriji.......I am planning to attend his show ....I dont have company tho ....also I dunno his tamil songs.... ..[ I now know a few tamil songs sung by Unnikrishnan......thanks to Vivek ].....I enjoy soft songs like anjali anjali pushpanjali [ Duet ] .........SP Shailaja and SP Charan r also coming [ who r they? ....his children? ] + live orchestra .........Its a fundraiser for the construction of our vighneshwara kovil ..........SPB show is six days after Sriji's burday

oh !! don't tell me one more year has gone by ...almost ...how time flies !! Anyway..this time I don't have to wonder if my b'day will be a holiday or not...because it will be..for me ! I have opted to close out my current job on monday...and thereafter i plan to meditate on the situation ...before deciding what to do next. So, I should be gainfully unemployed on my next b'day !!

31 Manithan enbavan, P B Sreenivos, Sumaithangi 1962, Viswanathan Ramamoorthy_Kannadasan

Film directed by Sridhar - starring Gemini Ganesan, Devika, Muthuraman
P B Srinivas sings fro Gemini Ganesan

Translation - courtesy Nimii :
Man can be a god
If he is greatly generous
If he can give up his life and be a martyr
Or like a candle that gives light while it gets melted
Man can be a god

A person who lives for his country – statues can be created for such
A person who lives for relationships – may turn into a flower
When he can cry for someone else, he can be the leader
The mind can turn into a temple

If you have the will you can fly like a bird
If you have the way you can see mountains in the jungles
If you are brave you can bear any burden
Virtue can be a temple

Man can be a god
