Thiruvasagam Poovar Senni Manickavasagar Ilayaraja


பாடல் : யாத்திரை பத்து  -- பூவார் சென்னி மன்னனெம் 
புலவர்: மாணிக்கவாசகர் 

விடுமின் வெகுளி வேட்கைநோய் 
மிகவோர் காலம் இனியில்லை 
உடையான் அடிகீழிப் பெருஞ்சாத்தோடு 
உடன்போ வதற்கே ஒருப்படுமின் 
அடைவோம் நாம்போய்ச் சிவபுரத்துள் 
அணியார் கடவ தடையாமே 
புடைபட் டுருகிப் போற்றுவோம் 
புயங்கன் ஆள்வான் புகழ்களையே  

Translation as I understood : 
There is no better time to destroy the worst human diseases like anger and desire. The only way to do that is to reach lord shiva's feet. So, lets get together and go to shivapuram and keep praying the name of universal master shiva and hope the gates of shivapuram will let us in.

The song written in 9th century, identifies anger and desire as the two worst human diseases. The poem equates lord shiva with the master of the universe or the controller of the universe. Hence, to destroy these diseases and stop the suffering of humans, we have to reach the master. The creator of the universe only can guarantee eternal peace. The master's door will let us in only if we trust him and surrender to him completely.

Poove Poochoodava

Poove Poochoodava
===============

One of the evergreen songs by the great vairamuthu sir.....

Poove Poochoodavaa Enthan Nenjil Paal Vaarkkavaa
Vaasal Paarthu Kangal Poothu Kaathu Ninren Vaa
Azhaippu Mani Entha Veetil Kettalum Odi Naan Vanthu Paarpen
Thendral Envaasal Theendave Illai Kannil Veneerai Vaarpen
Kangalum Oyinthathu Jeevanum Theyindathu
Jeeva Deepangal Oyium Neram Neeyum Neiyaha Vanthaai
Intha Kanneeril Sogam Illai Indru Aanantham Thanthaai
Paethi Endraalum Neeyum Enthaai

The charanam starts with the grandma looking at her door waiting for her grand daughter.....The best line for me in this song is Jeeva Deepangal Oyium Neram Neeyum Neiyaha Vanthaai....this line is the peak of the paragraph.....indicating that the return of a loved one can increase ones lifetime.....and the aanadha kaneer after seeing her.....finally ending by saying that your return is like a re-birth to me....(Paethi Endraalum Neeyum Enthaai).......

I can only say chance'eh illa.....respect respect and only respect for vairamuthu sir......
