payanam engu ponaal enne padhai nooru aanal enne thottam vechavan thaneer viduvan summa nillu da

Translated to: Your path may go to a strange place....your paths might branch into hundreds... but the person who laid the garden knows to water you wait and watch.... 
Just means god will take care :)\

another favourite line:

Poda ellaam vittu thallu..Pazhase ella suttu thallu..Pudhusa ippo porandhom ennu ennikolada..

Again Translated: leave everything that happened./...shoot everything thats old... start life again thinking THIS is the day u were born again






I love this lyricist..whoever he is!

Nice thread, Bandicoot! 😊

I have alot of favorites but songs about amma (mother) hold a very special place in my heart...

A classic, evergreen song would be Amma Endrazhaikatha from the movie Mannan, composed by the great Ilayaraja...

KJY's voice is sooo soulful, it brings tears to my eyes everytime I listen to it! Of course, not to mention about the awesome lyrics by the great Vaali, every line is sooo beautiful! 😃

Here are the lyrics and translation for those who don't understand Tamil...

Amma endrazhaikaatha uyirillaye

there's not a single creature which doesn't call out to the mother

ammaavai vanangaadhu uyarvillaiye

there's no progress without respecting the mother

neril nindru pesum dheivam petra thaayandri verondru edhu

which other god comes in front of you and talks to you, other than the mother?

(ammaa)

abiraami sivagaami karumaayi magamaayi thirukkoyil dheivangal needhaanamaa

You are all the deities in the temple

annaikku andraadam abhishegam alangaaram purigindra siru thondan naandhaanamma

I'm a small devotee who performs the prayers everyday

porulodu pugazh vendum maganalla thaaye un arul vendum enakkendrum adhu podhume

I'm not a son who wants fame or fortune, all I need is your blessings, that is enough

aduththingu pirapponru amaindhaalum naan undhan maganaaga pirakkindra varam vendume

I want to be born as your son, if there is a next birth

adhai neeye tharuvaaye

you will give me that boon

(ammaa)

pasum thangam pudhu velli maanikkam manivairam ivai yaavum oru thaaikku eedaagumaa

can pure gold, silver and diamond ever be equal to a mother??

vilai meedhu vilai vaithu kettaalum koduthaalum kadai thannil thaayanbu kidaikkaadhammaa

even if you auction by placing huge amounts, you wont get mother's love

eeraindhu maadhangal karuvodu enaiththaangi nee patta perum paadu arivenammaa

I am aware of the pain you underwent carrying me for 10 months in your womb

eeraezhu jenmangal eduththaalum uzhaiththaalum unakkingu naan patta kadan theerumaa

Even if I work for generations, will I be able to give you back all that I owe you??

unnaale pirandhene

I was born because of you

(ammaa)
