Mundhinam (Vaaranam Aayiram - OST) - English Translation

முன்தினம் / मुन्दिनम / Mundinam (Yesterday) Movie : Vaaranam Aayiram

Music : Harris Jayaraj

Vocal : Naresh Iyer, Prashanthini

My Rating - 9/10

This is definitely one of my all time favourites. Harris Jayaraj deserves more than just a pat on the back for this haunting melody! But then, even he drew the inspiration from George Michael's FAITH....a hit from the yesteryears.....Makes me wonder, where have all those wonderful moments of yesteryears disappeared? Yes! this song really takes a teenager back to the college days of his father, at least it had that effect on me. I could imagine myself back in the eighties, and life really untying all kinds of notes to forego another transcendental trip to the center of my past.....A Past Life perhaps!  A Great track....I have modified the lyrics in the english translation to suit my style....and it is dedicated to someone really really special...........Malini?...naah....thats the character played by Simran in the film.....here that person is a secret...a MYSTERY...yet to be unveiled! :P

LYRICS (TRANSLATION)


Suriya's voice: 

Hi malini..I am Krishnan…naan idha solliye aaganum..nee avlavu azhagu..
Inga evanum ivlo azhaga oru…
Ivlo azhaga paarthurka maattaanga…and I am in love with you…

Hi Malini, I am Krishnan.... I got to tell you... you are so beautiful...
No one around here is as beautiful….I haven’t anyone more beautiful than you and i am in love with you....

M - Mundhinam paarthene
paarthathum thotrene
Salladai kannaga nenjamum punnaanathey
Ithanai naalaaga unnai naan paaramal
engu naan poneno naatkalum veenanathey

I saw you yesterday
I lost myself, falling away
My heart got stained as a sieve
I’m boundless, let me make you believe
All these days, went away in that

Vaanathil nee vennila
yekkathil naan theivatha
ippodhey ennodu vandhal enna
oor parka ondraga sendral enna
ippodhey ennodu vandhal enna
oor parka ondraga sendral enna

You are the moon in the sky
Longing for you, tears cry!
Come away with me, this moment

Let’s tour this town, hand-in-hand

Mundhinam paarthene
paarthathum thotrene
Salladai kannaga nenjamum punnaanathey
Ithanai naalaaga unnai naan paaramal
engu naan poneno naatkalum veenanathey

I saw you yesterday
I lost myself, falling away
My heart got stained as a sieve
I’m boundless, let me make you believe
All these days, went away in that

…Oh! My Love – Every breath!

Stanza I
M - Thulaa thattil unnai vaithu nigar seyya ponnai vaithaal
Thoola baaram thorkaadho... perazhagey

Weight of a thousand Golden pyramids invalidate

Such is your beauty, its priceless and yet so elate

F - Mugam paarthu pesum unnai muthal kadhal sinthum kannai
Anaikaamal poveno aaruyire

I look at your face, the love in those eyes

Drag me to embrace you besieging all lies

M - Oh... nizhal poley vidamal unnai thodarvenadi
Pugai pola padamal pattu nagarvenadi
Vina nooru kanavum nooru vidai solladi

I shall follow you like your shadow
Like a cloud, I’ll hover and how?

My Dreams ask me a hundred queries about you

Ithanai naalaaga

Stanza II

F: kadal neelam mangum neram
alai vandhu theendum thooram
manam sendru moozhgatho eerathiley

Blue of the sea is fading out on your hips

As these waves rise to kiss your lips

As my heart plunges out of the sea, wet and sultry

M - thalai saaikka tholum thanthai
viral korthu pakkam vanthai
idhazh mattum innum yen thoorathile

I want to entomb my head ‘tween your bosom

Hold these fingers, slide you off, wont you come?

And let the distance between our lips fade away!

F - pagal neram kanaakkal kanden urangaamale
uyir rendum uraaya kanden nerungamale
unai andri enakku yedhu ethirkaalamey

I couldn’t sleep as I was daydreaming

I felt numb, when you’re away, I’m freezing

Without you, How am I going to breathe ever?

M - Mundhinam paarthene
paarthathum thotrene
Salladai kannaga nenjamum punnaanathey
Ithanai naalaaga unnai naan paaramal
engu naan poneno naatkalum veenanathey

I saw you yesterday
I lost myself, falling away
My heart got stained as a sieve
I’m boundless, let me make you believe
All these days, went away in that

Vaanathil nee vennila
yekkathil naan theivatha
ippodhey ennodu vandhal enna
oor parka ondraga sendral enna
ippodhey ennodu vandhal enna
oor parka ondraga sendral enna

You are the moon in the sky
Longing for you, tears cry!
Come away with me, this moment

Let’s tour this town, hand-in-hand
