Katrinile Varum Geetham Tuesday, December 18, 2007

Ever since I went to Sudha Ragunathan's concert, I have been humming this beautiful song set in raga savithri, Katrinile Varum Geetham. Many know that its a time immemorial song sung by M.S.Subbulakshmi in the film Meera. What a soothing voice M.S. has!

I realize the song was written by Kalki Krishnamurti, the famous author of Ponniyin Selvan and other novels. The song has simple lyrics, but I guess the very simplicity makes it adorable.

Here is the lyric for the song:

Kaatriniley varum geetham
Kangal panithida pongum geetham
Kallum kaniyum geetham

Pattamarangal thalirkkum geetham
Pannoli pongum geetham
Kaattu vilangum kette mayangum madhuramohana geetham
Nenjiniley — Nenjinil inba kanalai ezhuppi
ninaivazhikkum geetham

Sunai vandudan solaikkuyilum
manam kuvindhidavum
Vaanavelidhanil thaara kanangal
thayangi nindridavum
Aah, en solven maayappillai
venkuzhal pozhi geetham

Nila malarndha iravinil thendral ulaavidum nadhiyil
Neela niarathu baalagan oruvan kuzhal oodhi nindraan
Kaalemellaam
Kaalamellaam avan kaadhalai enni urugumo en ullam
