Reflections

Well, this song has one of Hindustani Fusion legends of India rendering to semi-carnatic raga. I am talking about ROOP KUMAR RATHOD! Yup! another man from the North making a graceful entry into South Indian Musicdom. And mind it! His voice....this song...and the lyrics...all of them are prefectly blended to form a heavenly treat to the ears and the soul within.

I love this song....AMAZING! 

And I am a hhuge fan of GV Prakash....first it was Chelusuva Cheluve...and now this one - Pookal Pookum...he's awesome....got his uncle Rahman's genes in him for sure.

LYRICS (TRANSLATION)

 pookkaL pookkum tharuNam aaruyire, paarththadhaarum illai.
Nobody saw the flowers bloom...oh my love..my life...
ularum kaalai pozhudhai muzhu madhiyum pirindhupovadhillai
One day it shall die...and fall off....but it's soul shall never be gone
netRu varai neram pogavillai; unadharuge neram podhavillaiye.
Time wouldn't go on....until yesterday....the moments I spent with you...were gone before I knew
edhuvum pesavillaiye inRu, eno edhuvum thonRavillaiye; idhu edhuvo
Today, I didn't speak anything.....somehow I didn't feel anything....What is this?
iravum viDiyavillaiye, adhu viDindhaal pagalum mudiyavillaiye – poondhaLire
The night never said goodbye....if it did...the day won't adieu....Oh belle bud!


vaarthai thevaiyillai, vaazhum kaalam varai paavai paarvai mozhi pesume
Words are insufficient....as long as we breathe...your eyes speak for you...
netRu thevaiyillai, naaLai thevaiyillai; inRu indha noDi podhume.
The day gone is meaningless...the coming day is ignorable...this moment of this day..is enough for eternity
verinRi, vidhaiyinRi, vin thoovum mazhaiyinRi; idhu enna ivan thoTTam poo pookkudhe 
There has been no rain...no one had sown the seeds....and there are no roots either...then how have these flowers shown up in this garden?
vaal inRi, pOr inRi, valikkinRa yuddham inRi, idhu enna ivan anbu ennai velludhe
No sword...no struuggle....and no war...yet he has conquered me with his love....

idhayam muzhudhum irukkum; indha thayakkam engu kondu niruthum.
The reluctance that has filled our hearts...shall lead us..but where?
idhai aRiya engu kiDaikkum viLakkam? adhu kiDaiththaal solla veNDum enakkum
How can I know this??? If you come to know...please let me know as well...
poondhaLire
Oh Belle Bud!
endha megamidhu, endhan vaasal vandhu engum eera mazhai thoovudhe.
This cloud is unfamiliar...knocks on my door....and rains on everything
enna uRavu idhu, edhuvum puriyavillai enRu boadhum idhu neeLudhe. 
What is this relationship??? I feel that I can't feel anything...
yaar enRu aRiyaamal, per kooDa theriyaamal, ivanoDu oru sondham uravaanadhe
Who's she....what's her name...I don't know....yet she has become an integral part of me...
yen enRu kelkaamal, thaDuthaalum niRkaamai, ivan pogum vazhi en manam pogudhe.
without asking anything ..... and not stopped by hindrances....my heart follows the path that he traversed...
paadhai muDindhappiRagum, indha ulagil payaNam muDivadhillaiye.
The path is mortal..it ends....but the journey is immortal
kaatRil paRandhe, paravai maRaindha piRagum, illai thoDangum naDanam muDivadhillaiye
I fly in the sky....even though my ship has disappeared....I dance to the stars endlessly...
idhu edhuvo
What is this?
