Spirit of Valentine’s Day from the evergreen Tamil lyricist
by K.T. Kumaran
Song written by Poet Vaali, for the 1966 blockbuster Nadodi starring Makkal Thilagam M.G.R – M.G. Ramachandran speaks of a true spirit of the world, for the betterment of humanity everywhere:
A translation from Tamil
One Language all over the World
Language spoken by hearts in love..
Language spoken without sound..
Language of sphere-less divine….
A bird in varied colors
One lyric many ragas
Nights are alike but seasons differ
Delight is same for the many souls
When separated by sea and sky
Love unites faster than the speed of wind
Souls may be separated into two
But love is just one – named divinity
One sky – one and only moonlight
Years those gone by are in millions
Imparted by love, reciting poetry and delving in arts
The united were in millions
Mass in the millions spoke it yet
Love sprouts swiftly
Be globe trotting, still
Love Google’s to unite
One language all over the world..
Language spoken by hearts in love..
Language spoken without sound..
Language of sphereless divine…. – By Kavignar Vaali – The evergreen lyricist
