Mannipaaya from Vinnaithaandi Varuvaya

Though not a big music buff, I do enjoy listening to good music. Except for a very few evergreen songs, my attention does not stay on any song for a long time. But 'Mannipaaya' from 'Vinnaithaandi Vaaruvaya' has really swept me off my feet, first and foremost, I found life in that song, which is very much missing in all the contemporary songs.

Thamarai's Lyrics, Rahman's Music and his voice and Shreya Goshal's Tamil pronunciation, Picturisation of the song and lastly Simbu and Trisha giving life to the song in the movie, I can keep going on...

Following is the lyrics of the song :

Kadalinil meenaaga irundhavaL naan
unakkena karai thaandi vandhavaL dhaan
thudithirundhen tharaiyinile
thirumbivittEn en kadalidame

Oru naaL sirithEn, maru naaL veruthEn
unai naan kollaamal kondru pudhaithEnE
mannipaaya mannipaaya.. .

Tthadumaari nadandhEn
noolilaana mazhai aagi ponen
unnaal dhaan kalaignanaai aanenE

Tholai dhoorathil veLicham nee
unai nokiye enai eerkiraaye
melum melum urugi urugi
unai eNNi Engum idhaiyathai enna seivEn
Oh unai eNNi Engum idhaiyathai enna seivEn

Odum neeril Or alai dhaan naan
uLLe uLLa eeram nee dhaan
varam kidaithum naan thavara vittEn
mannipaaya anbE

KaatrilE aadum kaagidham naan
nee dhaan ennai kadidham aakinaai
anbil thodangi anbil mudikkirEn
en kaalam varai ???

Oru naaL sirithEn, maru naaL veruthEn
unai naan kollaamal kondru pudhaithEne
mannipaaya mannipaaya.. .

Anbirkum undo adaikkumthaazh aarvalar
punkaNeer poosal tharum
Anbilaar ellaam thamakkuriyar anbudaiyaar
enbum uriyar pirarku

En en vaazhvil vandhaai kaNNa nee
povaayo kaanal neer polE thondri
anaivarum urangidum iravenum neram
enakkadhu thalaiyaNai nanaithidum eeram

Oru naaL sirithEn, maru naaL veruthEn
unai naan kollaamal kondru pudhaithEne
mannipaaya mannipaaya.. .

Thadumaari thadumaari nadandhEn
noolilaana mazhai aagi ponen
unnaal dhaan kalaignanaai aanenE
