Ye Manpuru Mangaye from Guru

I need to thank Vijay TV's Super Singer 4 program for paving my mind to this awesomely beautiful number. The melody and the lyrics both, intense. I have been listening to it since last night, yes - on replay. And, have yet to get enough of it.....
Listened to it, too, while on my ride back home, and couldn't help but savor, each and every line. Tamil is INDEED beautiful. Very, very beautiful - and this song is an excellent example. Vairamuthu must be the Einstein of words. How else do you expect me to rationalize the brilliant contents of this luring piece. 
I love this song heaps. Better than the, "Aaruyire Manipaaya" version. This, scores, a perfect 10 in my books. Heavenly. Ethereal. It puts me in the, "let-me-fall-in-love-all-over-again" feeling. It instigates me to reminisce my life's poetic moments. I am going to sleep with this playing. Yeah. Tonight, at least. At a sweetly soft volume level, it will -whimsically lull me to sleep, draw me into a dream and, wake me up with a smile. All three,  embedded with thoughts of him.....
Him. The only guy I have hopped on the motorbike with besides my father and brother. The one who is my first and ONLY love. The one that has eyes that match the intensity of lightning. The one that makes me smile - inanely. The one that I seek and scrutiny for, in a sea of crowd. The one that makes me heart somersault.....
And this song is 101% for him..... 
My Manpuru Mannava..... 
Go enjoy the weekend. I am in a super jolly mood..... 
Sunday is Maha Sivarathiri. For the Universe's Ultimate - Lord Shiva. Say your prayers well. He WILL answer. Do not doubt. God never lets go. We do. He DOES NOT.....
p/s - I have cut my long hair short. It now sits near the nape of my neck. Was inspired by Shakthishree Gopalan. :-) . He knows. He hasn't seen me in it yet, though.....

Kodai Kaala Kaatre from Paneer Pushpangal

I am constantly wondering - how and why - weekends hop, hover and hurry. While, weekdays - lag, linger and loiter. Is it only me ? Or, does this thought puzzle, everyone ? 
Saturday is, less than an hour away, from parting. The after effect from my fever, cough and flu is still pretty evident. I never sleep in the afternoon. But, did so, today. For more than an hour. I have stopped my medication but still feel weak and frail. What I need right now is a good getaway. A short vacation. A drive to the beach. A cup of great coffee over immense conversation. Something of that sort. 
I am actually feeling a little under the weather. That tiny optimist in me, reassures that everything will be fine. We make our days. Correct ? If we want to make them bright and happy, it will be - so. And, that is EXACTLY, how I want mine. Bright and joyous. 
I wish I could write my heart out. They say putting things on paper, eases the soul. I wish. The words are not flowing the way I actually want them, too. There were days, when I had words beautifully dancing on my mind. Usually, in the mornings, during my ferry rides. When, the sun shines majestically, as the breeze blows sweetly and the waves play happily.  Right now, it's arid.
I miss the actual presence of my father. The love and care he showered upon me. God, I miss him. Still do, despite the years. It will never cease. I don't want it to. He taught me that genuine love paves a perfect life. I agree and stand by his opinion. Love heals, the deepest of  scars.....
Of to bed, despite wanting to keep on writing. Something. A thought.... that, I am keeping wrapped for the time being. I have an early day tomorrow. I am looking forward to a sunny morning, an awesome Sunday. Fingers crossed.
This is a great number from none other than the great IR. The lyrics are soothing as is the music.
Have a blessed day !!!
