Devan vedhamum kannan geethayum

Dear SPB Fans,

Let us now listen to this good V Kumar’s song. It is from a Tamil movie "RajaNaagam” (1974). Lyric is by Vaali. This one seems to aim at fostering religious harmony by the lovers of two different religions – the man Srikanth being a Hindu and his lover Subha being a Christian. Our SPB & PS have provided a clean rendering of the song conveying the right mood of the song.

The lyrics is all about equating religious attributes to either of the lovers and also mentions about the common thread for all religions. In the song the lady sings some Hindu references and the man some Christian references which depicts exchange of religious values. (pls listen to a man voice chanting a line at the start of the song. It happens to be the “Malayur Mambattiyan” Thiagarajan (actor Prashant’s father) who chanted this line)

Towards the end of the song the overlapping effect of the two singers singing has been used to good effect and sounds great.

One of V Kumar’s great songs.

Listen and Enjoy.

LYRICS :

Devan yesuvin vedham....vedham ...vedham....
Kannan solliya geehdai...geedhai...geethai...

Devan vedhamum kannan geethayum
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam

Maadhavin vaazhthukal maniyoosai sollatum
KAADHAL VAAZHGA VENDRU
Kannan engey radhai angey
kuzhaloosai vaazthum undu
Nee veru naan veru andru
Nee indri naan illai indru
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam....

Devan vedhamum kannan geethayum
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam

Nenjodum ninaivodum neengaamal nindradum'
Siluvai neeyandro
Velan konjum velin vannam
kanney unn kannil undo
Thatungal kelungal ondru
Dharmangal engeyum ondru

oru paadhayil ingu sangamam
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam

Devan vedhamum kannan geethayum
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam
oru paadhayil ingu sangamam
