Sowkiyema?

One of my favourite song from the movie Sangamam by the title of Sowkiyema Kanne, sung by Nithyasree. Lyrics by Vairamuthu, of course.

Mindblowing music and lyrics. Love.

Sowkkiyamaa, kannae, sowkkiyamaa?
Sowkkiyamaa, kannae, sowkkiyamaa?
Sowkkiyamaa?
Thanathoamthoam thatheemtheem,
Thathoamthoam thatheem aena,
Viligalil nadanam ittaay,
Pinbu idhayatthil irangi vittaay,
Mella mella ennuyirai paritthu kondaay,
Manathai thaluvum oru ambaanaay,
Manathai thaluvum oru ambaanaay,
Paruvam kotthivittu paravai aanaay,
Paruvam kotthivittu paravai aanaay,
Januthatheem januthatheem januthatheem,
Salangaiyum aingudhae,
Athu kidakkattum, nee...
sowkiyama kanney sowkiyamaa sowkiyamaaa
Suriyan vanthu vaavenumbodhu,
Suriyan vanthu vaavenumbodhu,
Suriyan vanthu vaavenumbodhu,
Aena seiyum paniyin thuli?
Aena seiyum paniyin thuli?
Kodi kaiyil ennai kollai idu,
Tholi kaiyil ennai alli edu,
Kodi kaiyil ennai kollai idu,
Tholi kaiyil ennai alli edu,
Anbu naathanae, anindha mothiram,
Valaiyal aagavae thurumbaena ilaitthaen,
Antha mothiram ottiyaanamaay,
Aagum munnae, anbae alaitthaen,
Yen kaatril svaasam illai,
Yen kaatril svaasam illai,
Yen kaatril svaasam illai,
Yen kaatril svaasam illai,
Adhu kidakkattum, vidu,
Unnaekkaena aachu?
sowkiyama kanney sowkiyama sowkiyamaa
