It is this: kanRum uNNaathu kalaththinum pataathu n-allaan thImpaal n-ilaththinuk(ku) aaang(ku) enakkum aakaa(thu) ennaikkum uthavaathu pachalai uNIiyar vENtum thithalai alkulen maamaik kavinE. kalam = vessel (paal kaRakkum kalam); n-allaan = n-al + aan = n-alla pachu; thIm paal = iniya paal (sweet milk) ennaikkum = en + aikkum = en thalavainukkum ai = thalaivan = lover/husband pachalai = thalaivanaip pirithalaal varum thOl maaRRam (a discoloration of the female's skin resulting from prolonged separation from her lover); thithalai = thEmal (irregular spot) alkul = peNNin maRaivu uRuppum chuRRiya pakuthiyum maamai = maNi n-iRam (maa n-iRam); kavin = azaku = (beauty) "thaayp pachuvin iniya paal kanRukkum aakaamal kaRakkuk kalaththukkum chEraamal n-ilaththil vIzn-thu vINaavathu pOl en thaay enakkuch chErththuk kotuththa thEmal porun-thiya alkulutan azakiya maNin-iRamum enakkum illaamal en thalaivanukkum inRip n-iRam kettup pachalai n-Oykku uNavaakinRathE". Talking of lyrics, have you ever wondered about the beginning rendition in the “Theendai” Song?

It is this:

kanRum uNNaathu kalaththinum pataathu

enakkum aakaa(thu) ennaikkum uthavaathu
pachalai uNIiyar vENtum
thithalai alkulen maamaik kavinE.

kalam = vessel (paal kaRakkum kalam);
n-allaan = n-al + aan = n-alla pachu;
thIm paal = iniya paal (sweet milk)
ennaikkum = en + aikkum = en thalavainukkum
ai = thalaivan = lover/husband
pachalai = thalaivanaip pirithalaal varum thOl maaRRam
(a discoloration of the female’s skin resulting from prolonged
separation from her lover);

thithalai = thEmal (irregular spot)
alkul = peNNin maRaivu uRuppum chuRRiya pakuthiyum
maamai = maNi n-iRam (maa n-iRam);
kavin = azaku = (beauty)

“thaayp pachuvin iniya paal kanRukkum aakaamal kaRakkuk kalaththukkum
chEraamal n-ilaththil vIzn-thu vINaavathu pOl en thaay enakkuch

It was similar to the Prakash Raj-Revathy’s wedding in Iruvar. Don’t remember the name of that type of wedding now :? > Anytime in mani’s movie - background events are important. True! And that’s a great example :) I too struggled to find the lyrics of those lines of Snehidhane. Puranjoy, This is not fair. I write a page and a half long post on your favourite song and you leave a 2-character long comment?? > there should have been a warning or something! Why? Kalyan, :) Sreekrishnan,

True! And that’s a great example :)
