This is an MGR song where he dances to this tune with Devika. Music by the fantastic duo Viswanathan-Ramamurthy and of course, the lyrics by Kannadasan. They used to say that TM Soundararajan adjusted his vocals differently for MGR than for Sivaji. Just the same way I can't tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi, I could not tell the difference. You listen and decide. This is a pretty fast moving song. "Is there a december without snow? Is there a king without battalions? How about fruits that are not sweet? Is there Tamil which has three legs without music, one of the three legs?" "Is there a painting without beauty? Is there a woman's heart without desires? Is there a land without rains? Is there a flowering creeper without flowers?" "Is there an epic without the hero? Is there a deed without the heroine? (These lines don't translate that well. The rhyming and the meaning in Tamil is perfect) How about a drama without art form? Is there a youth without love?" As we have seen many times, Kannadasan wraps up the song with the last stanza very different than the first few. "All of the pointless running, thoughtless singing, and talking like foes are all the story of the youth! | பனி இல்லாத மார்கழியா படை இல்லாத மன்னவனா இனிப்பில்லாத முக்கனியா இசை இல்லாத முத்தமிழா அழகில்லாத ஓவியமா ஆசை இல்லாத பெண் மனமா மழை இல்லாத மாநிலமா மலரில்லாத பூங்கொடியா தலைவன் இல்லாத காவியமா தலைவி இல்லாத காரியமா கலை இல்லாத நாடகமா காதல் இல்லாத வாலிபமா நிலை இல்லாமல் ஓடுவதும் நினைவில்லாமல் பாடுவதும் பகைவர் போலே பேசுவதும் பருவம் செய்யும் கதை அல்லவா |
