VeLLai PookaL ulagam engum malarhavae



A Beautiful Song.... Beautiful Lyrics from "vairamuthu. It was in the movie "kannathil muthamital" and A R Rahman reworked it for the "The One Drop Foundation"

Lyrics in Tamil

VeLLai PookaL ulagam engum malarhavae
vidiyum Bhoomi amaidhikaaga vidihavae
manmel manjal veluchcham vizhuhavae
malarae sombal muRiththu ezhuhavae

kuzhanthai vizhikattumae
Thaayin katha kathappil
ulagam vidiyattumae
piLLayin sirumugha siRippil
(VeLLai)

kaatrin perisaiyum
mazhai paadum? paadangalum
Oru maunam poal inbam tarumooOO
koadi keertanamum kavi koartha vaarthaiygalum
thuLi kaNNer poal arththam tharumo
(VeLLai)


English Translation

Let White Flowers bloom all over the world.
Let the waking earth, wake for Peace.
Let the yellow light fall on earth.
Let the flower wake up leisurely.

Let the child wake up
In mother's warmth.
Let the? world wake up
in child's small smile.

The air's loud music
The Songs of Rain
Doesn't give the pleasure as Silence.
Crores of Songs and the wordings of a poet
Doesn't give the meaning of a tear drop.
