Vaseegara Song from Minnale (Tamil) – Lyrics in English with Translation

vaseegara

Vaseegaraa en nenjinikka

Un pon madiyil thoonginaal podhum

Hey Magical Charmer

It’s enough if I sleep in your lap

Adhae kanam en kannuranga

Mun jenmangalin yeakkangal theerum

And if my eyes sleep forever in that moment

All wishes in previous births will be fulfilled!

Vaseegaraa en nenjinikka

Un pon madiyil thoonginaal podhum

Hey Magical Charmer

It’s enough if I sleep in your lap

Adhae kanam en kannuranga

Mun jenmangalin yeakkangal theerum

And if my eyes sleep forever in that moment

All wishes in previous births will be fulfilled!

Naan nesippadhum suvaasippadhum

Un dhayavaal thaanae

Aengugiren thengugiren

Un ninaivaal naanae naan

I breathe and love only by your mercy

I am sobbing, crying

In your thoughts…This me

 

Adai mazhai varum adhil nanaivoamae

When rain comes, we shall be drenched in it

Kulir kaaychalodu snegam

Oru poarvaikkul iru thookkam

When we get a cold and fever

We shall sleep together inside one blanket!

Kulu kulu poigal solli ennai velvaai

Adhu therindhum kooda anbae

Manam adhaiyaedhaan edhirpaarkkum

You will win over me by telling so many lies

Even after knowing it, my dear

My heart desires that only!

Engaeyum poagaamal

Dhinam veettilaeyae nee vendum

Without going anywhere

I wish you will stay in home every day

Sila samayam vilaiyaattaai

Un aadaikkullae naan vendum

Sometimes, just for fun

I should be inside your dress

Vaseegaraa en nenjinikka

Un pon madiyil thoonginaal podhum

Hey Magical Charmer

It’s enough if I sleep in your lap

Adhae kanam en kannuranga

Mun jenmangalin yeakkangal theerum

And if my eyes sleep forever in that moment

All wishes in previous births will be fulfilled!

 

Vaseegara Song from Minnale

Vaseegara from Minnale sung by Bombay Jayashri

Dhinam nee kulithadhum ennai thedi

En selai nuniyaal undhan

Thalai thudaipaayae adhu kavidhai

Soon after bathing every day,

You will search me,

And wipe your wet hair with my sari,

That’s a poem

Thirudan pol padhungiyae dhideer endru

Pinnaalirundhu ennai

Nee anaippaayae adhu kavidhai

As a robber, you’ll sneak up,

Suddenly enter

And hug me from the back!

That’s a poem!

Yaarenum mani kettaal

Adhai solla kooda theriyaadhae

If anyone asks about the time

I don’t know what to tell them

Kaadhalenum mudiveliyil

Gadigaara neram kidaiyaadhae

In the net of love

The clock’s time won’t work out there!

Vaseegaraa en nenjinikka

Un pon madiyil thoonginaal podhum

Hey Magical Charmer

It’s enough if I sleep in your lap

Adhae kanam en kannuranga

Mun jenmangalin yeakkangal theerum

And if my eyes sleep forever in that moment

All wishes in previous births will be fulfilled!

Naan nesippadhum suvaasippadhum

Un dhayavaal thaanae

Aengugiren thengugiren

Un ninaivaal naanae naan

I breathe and love only by your mercy

I am sobbing, crying

In your thoughts…This me

Song Trivia

Hindi Remake of Minnale

Minnale was the debut movie of Gautham Vasudev Menon as a director and Harris Jayaraj as a composer. The movie was a big hit of the year, and the fresh tunes composed by the debutante composer played a magnificent role in the film’s success. The songs of Minnale are loved even 25 years after the album’s release! 

The movie was remade in Hindi the same year by Gautham Vasudev Menon, titled Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein, with Madhavan reprising his role, and making his Bollywood debut. The movie marked Gautham’s Bollywood debut too. Though Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein was a box office failure, the movie achieved cult status over the years. Though Madhavan’s debut Hindi film was a flop, he went on to become a pan-Indian star within the next few years, delivering several box office hits in Hindi, including 3 Idiots. Diya Mirza also marked her acting debut, and she reprised Reema Sen’s lead role in the film. 

Hindi version of the Vaseegara song

Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein, also known as RHTDM, served as the perfect launch pad in Bollywood for the director Gautham Vasudev Menon, the composer Harris Jayaraj, and the actors Madhavan and Diya Mirza. Most of the songs from the original film were reused in the Hindi remake, including the iconic Vaseegara song too. Sameer wrote the romantic lyrics for  Zara Zara and did full justice to the song. Bombay Jayashri sang the Hindi version as well, and needless to say, it became as popular as the Tamil original. The song marked her Bollywood debut, and even after many years, she is still remembered by Hindi music fans for this song. 

Also read: The song lyrics and translation of Pachai Nirame song from Alai Payuthey, Madhavan’s debut film in the lead role. The irony is that the film turned out to be Shalini’s final release before her break from acting.
