When I heard this song the first time, I hardly knew a single world in Tamil. There were several words in this song that were common in other languages that I was well versed in, but the words did not sound right in this song! The second time that I heard this was several years later when I was attending studies in Tamilnadu; even then it did not sound right. For example, I did not know who "appar" was, and/or what "saareeram" and "karaharapriya" were... Sivaji Ganesan was not one of my favorite actors, and TMS was not one of my favorite singers.

As time passed, my exposure to and interest in Tamil language and music grew by leaps and bounds. I became a fan of Kannadasan's lyrics and MSV's music. Gradually, the song that I am talking about became one of my favorites too.

This is arguably one of the earliest attempts in India at fusion music. And what a fusion it is! MSV at his musical best, TMS at his singing best (in spite of his English pronunciation), and Sivaji at his acting best! I am not sure who wrote the lyrics. Here it is, from the 1973 movie "manidharil maaNikkam"...

நீ வருவாய் என நானிருந்தேன்
ஏன் மறந்தாய் என நான் அறியேன்
நீ வருவாய் என நானிருந்தேன்
ஏன் மறந்தாய் என நான் அறியேன்
கண்கள் உறங்கவில்லை
இமைகள் தழுவவில்லை
கவிதை எழுத ஒரு
வரியும் கிடைக்கவில்லை
அமைதி இழந்த மனம்
எதையும் நினைக்கவில்லை
வாராயோ...

வாராயோ வெண்ணிலாவே கேளாயோ எங்கள் கதையே
அகம்பாவம் கொண்ட சதியாள் அறிவால் உயர்ந்திடும் பதி நான்

வெண்ணிலா வெண்ணிலா திருடிப்புட்டா
இந்த வீரப்பன் மீசைக்குள்ள ஒளிஞ்சிக்கி ட்டா
தங்கப் பூவே வெள்ளித் தீவே
என தப்பு தப்பா புரிஞ்சிக்கிட்டா
பெண்ணத் தான் பெண்ணத் தான் திருடிக்கிட்டா
இந்த பின்லேடன் தாடிக்குள்ள ஒளிஞ்சிக்கிட்டா...

திருடிய இதயத்தை திருப்பி கொடுத்துவிடு
காதலா என் காதலா என் காதலா
வருடிய காற்றுக்கு வார்த்தை சொல்லிவிடு
காதலா என் காதலா என் காதலா

என் சுவாசக்காற்றே சுவாசக்காற்றே நீயடி
உன் நினைவுகள் என் சுவாசம் ஆனதும் ஏனடி
நான் பாடும் பாட்டின் பன்னீர் ஊற்றே நீயடி

சம்மதமா சம்மதமா
உன்னுதட்டில் என்னை எழுத
சம்மதமா சம்மதமா
உன் விரலில் என்னை செதுக்க...
