Ven Megameவெண் மேகமே
எனது மனதின் வாசகி.. இதயம் நுழைந்து வா..சகி...
Following his successful collaboration with Shankar Mahadevan, acclaimed composer Shyamalangan has come up with a beguiling melody titled 'Ven Megame' featuring Haricharan Seshadri. An expression of youthful love, the song is packed with poetically rich and metaphoric lines penned to perfection by the talented lyricist Thava Sajitharan. The musically mesmerising track features a sweet blend of Veena, Flute, Violin and other instruments. The clean arrangement frames Haricharan's enthralling voice so perfectly that one gets tempted to listen to the track on repeat.

Lyrics
-
வெண் மேகமே பொன்னானதோ
செம்பூவிதழ் கண்ணானதோ
செந்தாழமோ செந்தூரமோ
பெண்மானவள் பொன்பாதமோ அருவிகளின் மொழி பேசிடும்
அவள் இதழின் மணி வாசகம் எனது மனதின் வாசகி..
இதயம் நுழைந்து வா.. சகி
வானில் ஒளி வீசும் இளம் தாரகை
நேரில் தினம் காணும் ஒரு தேவதை
கானல் வெளிமீது புது மாமழை
காணும் இடம்யாவும் இவள்வாசனை (எனது)
காதல் இசைமீட்டும் எழில் யாழினி
நாளும் எனை ஆளும் உயிர் தோழி நீ
மாரன் உயிர் வாங்கும் ரதிதேவி நீ
மாயம் புரிகின்ற வனமோகினி (எனது)
