Hi all,

I am looking for Taalaattu songs. Googling and Yahooing yielded no result. There was a thread asking these songs long aga in this forum. But there were no replies for that.

I would appreciate songs along with lyrics.

Thanks

I know the lyrics for Meenakshi taalaattu (Ravi gave them to me). The taalaattu is in raga Neelambari and kanda eka taalam.

Here is one. It is rather long but very endearing. I made some corrections where it was obviously wrong. Otherwise the words were left intact.

I think this is a traditional folk song and the composer is unknown.

There are two beautiful songs I have listened to quite often.

1. This song is in the movie Paraasakthi (1952) It's not a happy song. Its a sad song, because, the mother sings the song in a sad and depressing mood trying to put her baby to sleep singing this song probably written by Mr. Karunanithi (former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister). Though the mother is the sister of three rich brothers (in Rangoon), she was driven to extreme poverty having lost her parents and husband. The song starts like this

Poomaalai, NeeyE
Puzhuthi maN mElE
VeeNE vandEn PiRanthaay

I don't have the entire lyrics with me here but the song can be accessed in Youtube.

2. Another song is sung by Balasaraswathi Devi, I forgot the movie name.

Song starts like this:

NeelavaNNa KaNNaa Vaadaa
Nee oru Muththam Thaadaa
Nilaiyaana inbam Thanthu
ViLaiyaadum selvaa vaadaa

I don't remember (or vaguely remember) the other lines in this song.

Thanks, PB. I just could not dredge up mangayar tilakam from the depths of my memory - my mind was stuck on bhAbhI ki cUDiyAn, the Hindi remake of this film.

Thanks, PB!

That was a quick response and very informative.

But I am totally sorry as I wanted to present a different 'Thaalaatthu' song from the same movie Paraasakthi.

That song is:

"konjum mozhi sollum kLiyE
sezhum kOmaLa thAmaraip poovE
oru vanjamillA muzhu mathiyE
intha vAnil uthiththa nallamudhE

kaNNE kaNNamudhE kaNNuRangAyO"

I forgot the rest of the songs. But the song is really a good thaalaattu song and very soothing for putting the child to sleep.

Please forgive me for my mistake.

I think the above song is in the raagaa Desh.

Thanks for the link for Neela vaNNA kaNNA vAdA
