http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...px-Sorghum.jpg This wikipedia link on pun-sey is a good read for any who have questions about what are these terms 'punjai' & 'nanjai' that the song talks about. Decades back, it was understood that any average TN-er knows the meanings of these terms (and so the song has no problems referring to them in the first line).
In this age of 'why this kolaveRi', 'asku laskA', 'heart-ilE battery', I won't be surprised if most TN-ers do not understand the meaning of these words. Which is why I start this post with the wikipedia link that talks about the grains that could grow in TN using just the sparse rain water. These give excellent nutrients despite needing less resources to grow.
In my appA's village, both kinds of cultivation were in vogue during my childhood and they very rarely ate nelluchchOru. If at all they had it, it was from 'kaikkuRRal' (and typically 'pachcha nelluchchOru' and very rarely 'puzhungal arisi'). Typically it was chOLam / kambu / varagu / kuthiraivAli, all punjai grains and the diet kept them really healthy till advanced age as per my observation (i.e. those who didn't get into alcohol and other vices). That too without any kind of "advanced healthcare support" as in the case of U.S. / Canada:-)
(When I attended the funeral of my Detroit friend's mom -85- yesterday, the thought of my dad's eldest sis who passed away last year came to mind. They didn't even have the record of her DOB and so 'estimated' the age to around 90! She was working in the field till a couple of years before her death :shock: And without any scheduled visits to doc's office and other paraphernalia! Definitely something to think about!)
This song ofcourse, is quite a joy ride - with excellent percussion work and enthusiastic singing by SPB. So is the scene on screen where KH is full of energy! (I really loved that character in the movie who plants trees - there are people whom I've come across like him in real life and they're definitely among my "heroes" list!)
App anna
What does Punjai and Nanjai mean ? :roll:

App - lalitha priya kamalam by jesu anna. You guessed right. Jesu anna walks away with honours inspite of much more effort and expressions by Balu. Good idea for suresh/vishnubotla to pick the song for the telugu lyrics thread :thumbsup:
Thanks :)Quote:
