Place to go if you want to ask someone identify raga, tala, composer etc or ask for sāhitya (lyrics) or notations or translations.

Hello, I have one version of this song by OS Arun. Do you have any other version any other singer? Also, a friend said there seems to be a very old version of this song that was sung in some old Tamil movie. Can someone upload or share?

It is jagajjanani Suka pANi (not Sukha vANi) - a description of mInAkshI as the mother of the universe, holding a parrot in her hand...

There is a version sung by the Bombay Sisters. No clue about the tamizh movie version - I would be interested in that one too.

It is a 'pianica'. A mouth organ or harmonica with keys.

Cool,
So, it was Dandapani Desigar who sang the song that many years ago? I had heard it of course, but was not sure; also thought it was from a movie. After countless years, I was surprised to hear it again from Sanjay
a few years ago.

'manam magizhum' can be interpreted as it is the case with either her or with kuLumai nAdar'. How nice! parasparam...
