Man of simple words

I was watching this movie Iru vallavargal which I watched assuming that the Paradee Kanney song was from this movie. Its a typical 60′s masala tamil movie which is way better than current masala movies.

But I was quite amazed with Kannadasan lyrics for the sad situation. Its just 4 lines and about 25 words but he brings in the whole concept of life in to that. These concepts,ideas and words all have been there for centuries but he some how gets all these in to those 4 lines which can be understood by any one.

Uravu Irunthal Pirivu Irukum Ulaga Neethe
Vaaravu irunthal Selavu irukum Valkai neethe
Pagal Irunthal Iravu irukum Iraivan Neethee
Palakiya Pin vilakuvathey Manitha Jathi.

Here is the translation for the above lyrics..correct me if I’m wrong.

If there is relation then there is separation thats Worlds rule.
If there is earning then there is Expense thats life’s rule.
If there is day then there is night thats gods rule.
same way Alienating after spending time with you is the Human Race.

I couldn’t find this song any where but if you would like to hear it then please go to the video here and move to 7.25 and you can hear Sirkali singing it a much better way.
