Kanne om the movie Moondram Pirai.įirstly we thank our dear parents for all the support and love. Presenting before you, a cover version of one of the best lullabies. Without you, what is peace? You are my sacred sanctuary Sweet one, I have filled my thoughts with you I felt love, I have dreamed and nurtured the love Neeyillaamal edhu nimmadhi needhaanae en sannidhi Unakkae uyiraanaen ennaalum enai nee maravaadhae Kanmani unai naan karuththinnil niraiththaen You are a parrot's little one or a cuckoo's little one singing about the earthįor some reason, god has deceived you, fate has made you mentally ill If you were poor, there is a peace in that too If you were a mute, it is peaceful in a way Neeyoa kilippaedu pan paadum aanandak kuyil paeduĪeno dheyvam sadhi seydhadhu paedhai poala vidhi seydhadhu I see you in the mornings and evenings (implying all day)
Kannae kalaimaanae kanni mayilenak kandaen unai naanaeĭear beautiful deer, I found you like a young peacock The end however is a surprising twist and must be one of the most intensely tragic scenes ever screened. He rescues her from there and makes it his purpose in life to take care of her until he finds a way to cure her. The story of Moondraam Pirai is about a troubled young man who finds a mentally ill girl about to be sold for the first time in a brothal. In this song, Kamal Hasan's character is singing to Sridevi's character. *** Dedicated to my good friend Mangala and Prakash (Pakku) *** © 1983 Sony Music Entertainment India Pvt. Song Name - Surmayee Ankhiyon Mein (Happy Version) She lands in a brothel before being rescued by Somu (Kamal Haasan), a lonely school teacher who falls in love with her. Sadma, starring Kamal Haasan and Sridevi, is the story of Nehalata/Reshmi (Sridevi), a young woman who regresses to childhood after suffering a head injury in a car crash. Yesudas renders both the happy and melancholic moods beautifully into the song which enhances the flawless expressions of Kamal Haasan. It almost seems like an invocation to the Gods to let this companionship which seems like a dream, to continue forever. This song though supposed to be a lullaby that Somu sings to put Reshmi to sleep, also shows the lonely man that he was before she entered his life. #surmaiakhiyon #kannekalaimane #mothersday Love: Viji Viswanathan | Joel Joju | Subhilash Sadanandan Piano, Arrangements, Mix & Master: Ramu Raj Avinash Kulur for being so supportive in the video production. We here present this Music Video as a Memory of Generations - performed so beautifully by the talented dancers Rajasree Menon Gopinath, her daughter Indraneel Gopinath and Indraneel’s Son - The Super Cute Vardhaan Avinash Kulur, making it a beautiful and unique unison of three generations. So I’ve pretty much put that now.Presenting our humble version of one of the greatest lullabies Indian Film Music has ever heard - ‘’Surmai Akhiyon Mein/ Kanne Kalaimane Composed by Maestro Ilaiyaraja and sung by legend K.J Yesudas for the National Award winning Balu Mahendra movie ’Sadma’ in Hindi and ‘Moondram Pirai’ in Tamil.This composition was penned by Kaviyarasu Kannadasan In Tamil and Gulzar Saheb In Hindi. Then I saw the video which had subtitles and I liked that better than mine. I didn’t want to ruin the song, so I was thinking of trashing the effort. I tried to translate it but I didn’t like what I had come up with. this song is so simple and yet has stuck in my head for ever. This song is as the deaf and dumb girl imagines - she assumes that the boy is in love with her. Knowing that the girl won’t find a suitable husband of their own level and class, and seeing this new mild mannered, well educated boy who has done well for himself, the elders decide to get them married. In India, women, especially in times earlier, become less ‘valuable’ if they have ‘defects’. The third point in the triangle is the rich family’s only daughter who is born deaf and dumb. Set in the 1980s, there is a certain purity to the entire movie, the kind of feeling that makes you want to reach out to it, but really can’t. The boy comes there to be a servant too, but gains a little more respectable work with the family when they learn that he is educated. The girl is working as a servant in a rich household. This story is about teenage love among two poor kids. Vasudevan Nair have frequently handled light movies with a melancholy theme, and produced some of malayalam cinema’s all time classics. Whatever it is, I doubt if English can ever do justice to this song. Or maybe a few other different interpretations. “You are so beautiful, that you make me sing”.
