Oo la la la - Lost in "Translation"

My newest "craze" - anuvAda sAhitya i.e., Translation Literature. Have just begun to "bring in" songs, poetry, quotes, snippets, just anything and everything that I have liked in various languages. To begin with, this one is from a fave tamil film song of the 90s. More to follow - my faves of Gulzar saab and Javed bhai's poetry/film songs.

Orig. Lyrics: Vairamuthu
Music: AR Rahman
Singers: Chitra, Unni Menon.
Movie: Minsaara Kanavu (means "minchina kanasu" in kannada)
