thendralil Adai pinna

Movie: kaNNE pAppA
Music: MSV
Lyrics: Kannadhasan

In the movie, the heroine KR Vijaya falls in love with the hero(?) Muthuraman and has a relationship that leads to a child. Muthuraman runs away after he knows this. The avails of the child forms the main story.. a movie made for children. So, obviously, the director did not want to talk in any detail about the Muthuraman-KRVijaya relationship. So he presented that part in the heroine's flashback, in a song. Kannadhasan's beautifully formed lyrics, MSV's apt tune and PS' voice and singing elevate this song to a great level. Here are the full details of the song...

She is living near Kutralam; one day, when she is bathing in the falls, she notices that he is seeing her; she also falls for him...

thendralil aadai pinna
thEnaruvi mEni minna
andru naan kutraalaththil
aasaiyaay kuLiththirundhEn
angangaL nanaiththirundhEn

paalaadai paLapaLakka
mElaadai kaayththeduththEn
paaraadha vizhiyiraNdu
paarppadhai naanaRindhEn
vEshaththai naan maRandhEn
vetkaththil thalai kunindhEn

She sees him following her at the temple; in his attraction she cannot even hear the temple mELam sounds...

aanaimugan kOyililE
andhipadum vELaiyilE
kanni valam sutri vandhEn
kaNNiraNdai angum kaNdEn
mELaththai naan maRandhEn
naaNaththil thalai kunindhEn

At the shop near the temple she is buying bangles. The hero makes his move and grasps her hands; instead of resisting his move, she only gets thrilled...

kaNNaadi vaLayalgaLai
kaiyOdu naan eduththEn
ennOdu kaiyiraNdu
iNaivadhai naan aRindhEn
ammammaa mey silirththEn
achchaththaal thalai kunindhEn

She buys a roll of flowers and hastily walks off; the flower-roll falls from her hands; she bends to pick
it up, and finds him standing near it...

kai niRaya poo eduththu
kaatru pOl nadandhu vandhu
kai nazhuvi poo vizhundhu
kaal thEdi pOgak kaNdEn
kaal paarththu thalai nimirndhEn
kaN paarththu thalai kunindhEn

Ultimately she loses her body to him, in a moment when she forgets the consequences. For her he is the "only-one"; an assumed husband; so he is her God...

mEgam maRaiththadhinaal
viLakkoLi Edhumillai
mOdhum siRu oLiyil
mugaththil mugam iNaiththhEn
dhEgam maRandhuvittEn
dheivaththil naan iNaindhEn

The "good" part of the relationship is over and now the heroine comes out of her flashback recalling the mistake she did. Kannadhasan's lyrics are wonderful here...

sippiyil pani vizhundhu
muththuppOl vaLarndhadhammA
muththu nAn peRuvadhaRku
paththiram illaiyammA
vetkaththai maRandhadhanAl
achchaththil vizhundhadhammA

The first two lines above have been borrowed by others like Vairamuthu in later songs. The next two lines mention the lack of proof for the child's father!

A truly wonderful song! Most people are only familiar with the shortened version of the song which used to be played on the Radio. Listen the longer version here.
