[Lakshman]

vA vAvaLarmatiyE. rAgA: shuddhadhanyAsi. Adi tALA.

P: vA vA vaLarmatiyE vA kalai nidhiyE vA varamaruLa vA
A: vaNNamEvum isai vAridhi en vAzhvil inbam tarum bhArati

kANa kANa migha kAdal inbam idai kANum selvam nIyE
gaTanamE pugazhum rANiyE un kamala sEvayE kanindu nI aruLa

[rshankar]

Lji - small corrections as I remember - I will have to listen to the song to figure out if there are more:

P: vA vA vaLarmatiyE vA kalai nidhiyE vA varamaruLa vA
A: vaNNamEvum isai vAridhi en vAzhvil inbam tarum bhArati
annaiyE kalayin sArathi magizhndunnaiyE paNindEn ennai ANDaruLa
C: kambanODu kavi kALa mEgham kaninda uLLam nIyE
kAviyam pugazhndiDum jIva jyOtiyE kavalai tIrum tAyE
kANa kANa tigaTTAda inba nilai kATTum selvam nIyE
gaganamE pugazhum vANiyE un kamala (?) sEvayE kanindu nI aruLa

I am not sure about the word followed by the question mark.

Here is the link for the 'siramathil' (vA vA vA valarmadiyE vA) song by MLV in vanangAmudi movie:-
http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=155046 ... 3052242398
'va va va' portion starts at 1.09 m. in the track.

P: vA vA vA vaLarmatiyE vA kalai nidhiyE vA varamaruLa vA

A: first line: MLV sings as 'vAridi' the first time. Subsequently she sings it as 'vAdiri' and again as 'vAdiri'! (Hope I heard properly.) Which is right and what is the meaning of this word?

C: First line:
kambanODu kavi kavi kALa mEgamum kaninda uLLam nIyE

C: Third line:
kANa kANa tigaTTAda inba nilai kANum selvam nIyE

[Lakshman]

Sorry, I had two versions of this song and I posted the first version. Here is the corrected version:


vA vA va vaLarmatiyE. rAgA: shuddhadhanyAsi. Adi tALA.

P: vA vA vA vaLarmatiyE vA kalai nidhiyE vA varamaruLa vA
A: vaNNamEvum isai vAridhi en vAzhvil inbam tarum bhArati
annaiyE kalaiyin sArathi magizhndunnaiyE paNindEn ennai ANDaruLa
C: kambanODu kavi tALa mEghamum kaninda uLLam nIyE
kAviyam pugazhndiDum jIva jyOtiyE kavalai tIrum tAyE
kANa kANa tighaTTAda inba nilai kANum selvam nIyE
gaganamE pugazhum vANiyE un parama sEvayE kanindu nI aruLa

[rshankar]

Lji - it is kavi kALamegham - not tALa mEgham.

PB - IMO it should be vAridhi (in tamizh pronunciation - vAridi, I guess) to mean repository. isai vAridhi - repository of music.

Thanks.

[Lakshman]

Thanks rshankar & pratyaksham bala.

[suriyanmr]

Thanks a lot for Sri Lakshman for the lyrics and also to Sri Ravishanakar and Sri Bala for
valuable corrections.

In a non-movie setting by MLV, the last song, apparently from a Ceylon radio recording https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRESF8FixLQ

[arasi]

Thanks all!
A morning treat. AruL purivAi as starter, then Periasami thooran's song on murugan (of course) and is this about kadirkAmak kandan? kadirai nAdan, I heard. She might have sung it specially because she was in Sri Lanka.

Lyrics please, Lakshman, if you have them. Thanks.

vA vA vA, vaLarmadiyE vA is new to me. Wonder who wrote it...

arasi - kAlakAlan aTAnA, is that the song you are referring to? lyrics @ http://www.karnatik.com/c4431.shtml this is on sivan, not murugan

[Pratyaksham Bala]

The ‘vA vA vA, vaLarmadiyE vA’ is a Tamil Movie song. Thanjai N. Ramaiah Dass wrote it for the 1957 Tamil Movie vaNangAmuDi.

Here is the link for movie song :-
