Ennaiyum , Unnaiyum katti elukkuthadi ……………

Tamil movie songs released during 1987.Melodious still and unmatching in originality.

Simple short meaning of this Romantic song  which combines  spiritual aspects to express love

“ a  lamp of the temple of Lord

Sings a song

Eyes two tells the tune of love

Heart comes to your door step”

These First two lines repeated again and again.

The second song “ Unnayum Ennayum katti elukkuthadi……

(With a whistling sound)

The string of love ties you and me

That string gives pleasure and pain

Who tied this string?

Who got into this string?.......

These are the first two lines repeated again and again

Simply superb
