Senthee Vizhundha Lyrics - Kochadaiyaan

Music: A.R.Rahman
Lyrics: Vairamuthu

Female:

senthee vizhuntha sempor paaraiyil

manthi uruttum mayilin muttaiyaai

idhayam

udalil irunthu vizhunthu

urundu pogudhe

[On a red flame fallen golden red rock

Like a peahen’s egg rolled about by a monkey . . 

Heart

Fallen from the body

Is rolling and revolving here and there.]

nalla marathin narunkilai eilinthu

vella suzhiyil vizhunthu malarai

[Losing a strong branch from a stout tree

Like a flower fallen into the whirl of a flood . . ]

idhayam

karaigal maranthu

dhisaigal tholainthu alainthu pogudhe

[Heart

Forgetting the shores

Wanders directionless here and there.]

sirukottu perumpazham thoongi yaangu

en uyiro sirithe

kaadhalo perithe

[Much like a huge fruit on a slender tree

My life is insignificant,

My love is immeasurable.]

Male: 

poopathu marantha kodigal

punnagai maranthathu minnai

kaaipathu maranthathu kaadu

kaaviyam maranthathu yedu

yaano ninnai marakkilen

[The creepers have forgotten to flower,

The lightning has forgotten its smile,

The forest has forgotten its fruition,

The parchments have forgotten the epic –

I, though, have not forgotten, 

Have not forgotten you.]

senthamizh piriyum sangam

sengadal piriyum alaigal

oliyai piriyum kaatru

uliyai piriyum sirpam

yaano ninnai pirigilen

[The Sangam from Classical Tamil may part,

The waves from the Red Sea may part,

The winds from their sound may part,

The icon from its chisel may part –

I, though, will never part,

Will never part from you.]

vaai mottudainthathal poovaasam

vaasathukkethu siraivaasam

[When the lovely lipped bud explodes –Flowery fragrance

Where is a prison house for a perfume?]
