Ar rahman's tamil qawwali 3

Ar rahman's best tamil qawwali at the spot 3 will be khwaja mere khwaja tamil version. Though it is based on the original version in hindi by Ar rahman himself, Tamil version had made a huge hit among rahmaniacs and qawwali lovers. Every part of the lyrics well matched to the original tune which made the song a natural hit.

Song: khwaja mere khwaja ( tamil )
Singers: A.R. Rahman
Film: Jodha akbar



Will post the lyrics of khwaja endhan khwaja very soon....watch out....

Ar rahman's tamil qawwali 2

Second place is the most competitive one according to me. I think kanalane song from bombay scores and inches past. This is one of the many soulful contributions from ar rahman. This song whenever played, creates a pleasant atmosphere around the place and would make me feel like being in heaven.

Song: kannalane
Film: bombay
Singer: chitra
Lyrics: vairamuthu
Kannalanee.wma

Lyrics of the song, kannalane:

kannaalane enathu kannai naetrodu kaanavillai
en kangalai parithukkondum aeninnum pesavillai
aalana oru seithi ariyamale alaipaayum siru pedhai naano
un paerum en paerum theriyamale ullangal idam maarum aeno
vaai pesave vazhi illaye vali theera vazhi ennavo

(kannalane)

unthan panchaadai vizhunthathil nenjam nenjam
tharikettuth thazhumbuthu nenjam
enthan meladai paranthathil konjam konjam
pirai mugam paarthathu konjam
rattham kodhi kothikkum ulai kothithidum neerkkumizh pola
sittham thudithudikum puyal ethirthidum oar ilai pola
panithulithaan enna seyyumo moongil kaattil thee vizhumbothu
moongil kaadenru aayinal mathu

(kannalane)

oru minsaarap paarvayin vegam vegam

oru pennodu thondridum thaabam thaabam

ennai maranthuvitten intha ulagathil nanillai nanillai
unnai izhanthuvittaal entha malarilum thenillai thenillai
ithu kanava illai nanava ennai killi unmai thelindhaen
unnai paarthenthan thaymozhi maranthan
(kannalane)

(Varaaga nadhikarai oram)

Panjavarna kili nee parantha pinnaalum

Oh.... Kaaveri karaiyil, maramaai irunthaal

(Kannu thakku thakku thakkunguthu ... oh...)
(Varaaga nadhikarai oram)

Oh ... Oththa vizhi paarvai
Ooduruva paarththu
Thaappaal therichidichu

(Kannu thakku thakku thakkunguthu ... oh...)
(Varaaga nadhikarai oram)
