கல்யாணமாலை கொண்டாடும் பெண்ணே!
என் பாட்டைக் கேளு உண்மைகள் சொன்னேன்!
சுதியோடு லயம் போலவே,
இணையாகும் துணையாகும் சம்சார சங்கீதமே!
(கல்யாணமாலை)
வாலிபங்கள் ஓடும், வயதாகக்கூடும்,
ஆனாலும் அன்பு மாறாதது!
மாலையிடும் சொந்தம், முடிபோட்ட பந்தம்,
பிரிவென்னும் சொல்லே அறியாதது!
அழகான மனைவி, அன்பான துணைவி
அமைந்தாலே பேரின்பமே!
மடிமீது துயில சரசங்கள் பயில
மோகங்கள் ஆரம்பமே!
நல்ல மனையாளின் நேசம் ஒரு கோடி!
நெஞ்சம் எனும் வீணை பாடுமே தோடி!
சந்தோஷ சாம்ராஜ்யமே!
(கல்யாணமாலை)
கூவுகின்ற குயிலைக் கூட்டுக்குள் வைத்து,
பாடென்று சொன்னால் பாடாதம்மா!
தோகை மயில் தன்னைச் சிறை வைத்துப் பூட்டி,
ஆடென்று சொன்னால் ஆடாதம்மா!
நாள்தோறும் ரசிகன், பாராட்டும் கலைஞன்,
காவல்கள் எனக்கில்லையே!
சோகங்கள் எனக்கும், நெஞ்சோடு இருக்கும்,
சிரிக்காத நாளில்லையே!
துக்கம் சில நேரம் பொங்கி வரும்போதும்
மக்கள் மனம் போலே பாடுவேன் கண்ணே!
என் சோகம் என்னோடுதான்!
(கல்யாணமாலை)
Azhagaana paadal varigal by Vali :bow:
kuyil,mayil, koondu, aadu, sounds vr familiar with another sad song frm Chinna Thambi.. Was it written by Vaali too ?
App - Belated wishes for the 300th song. Your contributions cannot be just praised by words. Lucky to have been active in the hub when this thread took flight.
Kalyana Maalai - That starting string section in prelude alone is just to enough to bring all sort of emotions in me, just Goosebump stuff that one. SPB's singing is top notch, the yearning in his voice expressing a tinge of sadness, only he can bring out. Waiting for your posts on the other songs in this movie. I think all of them were quite popular.
baroque,
nal varavu :-)
Divine22,
nanRi for the lyrics...if you closely look at the lAAAAng story posted by me, there's some relationship to the "failed expectations" of the couple in that song to the "failed expectations" of the gang that went to the wedding :lol2:
rajkumarc,
ungaL anbAna vArththaikaLukku mikka nanRi! I wouldn't have possibly had the motivation to keep posting but for the wonderful feedback in this thread. However, the obvious & primary driver is the gratitude towards IR & SPB who enriched our lives with wonderful music / soulful singing!
groucho,
:lol: thanks to your KKK comment.
Param,
One thing I've observed with liquor is the very sight of it could drive extremely balanced / decent / moral people crazy! This is under various settings / cultural backgrounds / groups etc.
That is why Sivakumar's performance in Sindhubhairavi got much better appreciated during my very recent watches.
There are two versions of kalyANa mAlai on youtube...I don't know which one is from the movie and which is the one reworked by youtube-enthusiast :
Looks like this one is authentic:

This may be the tweaked one (that has rAsA singing, Sithara etc):

Thanks App for wonderful post on Kalyana Malai mixed with your bachelor time memories. This is one song where we can give everything to SPB. SoththayE ezhuthi koduthadalaam.:smile: Even trained classical singers and professionals of today should learn the bhavam, layam (whatever you call it) from SPB through this song. A perfect composition in every respect, either be the tune, singing, mood or visuals all take it to a level, no one can reach. More than admiring SPB's singing, this is one song where everyone want to atleast try a hand in singing. Singing this song and relishing within us and admiring the beauty of every note and lyric is another dimension which no other song can give. My biggest complaint (sorry for repeating) in most of today's composition is we are mere spectators when it comes to listening to a song, in spite of it having all the best musical ideas (IMHO). I cannot even try singing those songs, as there are lot of breaks here and there with no flow, and we cannot feel and relish singing it. Even if I try I can go to a maximum extent of finishing the pallavi, that's it. Still this song is fresh like a dew after twenty years and will remain as such. Lifetime composition, singing and visuals by the greats!

Even though SPB become a formidable force in the 70's ,my amma used to play mainly Dr.SG and TMS songs mainly, that too from Radio Ceylon.
My mum was a Carnatic singer those days, and her brothers were Mirudungam, Violin, Harmonium professionals. This was one of the SPB songs I thrive for frequently! I used to sing this Along with Shankaraparanam songs very often.
Sorry, If I have bored any one with my personal background .
