Lot of things happened after I posted my last entry here… My life took a U-turn, so also my time zone :-) Anyway, before I flush all my drafts to the blog, let me share the most inspirational thing I heard recently.
“Each flower says, life is a battle ground, where you fight…
Every new dawn says, if there is night, day will follow too…”
It is the song from the movie, “Autograph“, a story written and directed by Cheran, who is also the protagonist of the story. My Tamil knowledge was too poor to grasp the literature of the song. Still, I had cried over the movie when I watched it. Even if you don’t cry, I am sure you will be awed when Senthil walks to his past from his present and turns the leaves of his autograph.
And, today when I stumbled on the translation of those lines, I count it as some of the best few minutes in my life.
The lyrics were written by Pa.Vijay, who won the National award for the best lyricist of year 2004. Bharadwaj, the music director has created the right punch out of the lines.
When the soothing voice of KS Chithra flows on, and the beautiful, calm and comforting looks of Sneha fills the screen, Just watch on. Chithra won the National award for the song, in 2004. Who would not give an award for that heavenly voice, combined with a magical music!!
Lot of people can write inspirational words. There are hundreds you see everyday, too. Giving it a captivating music, and singing it in a divine voice, is what makes this song stand apart.
This happens to be my first video post to my blog.
Posting the translation here. I got the base copy after much Googling. Read, hear and get inspired…
Every flower says, life is a battlefield where you fight…
Every flower says, life is a battlefield where you fight…
Every new dawn says, if there is night, day will follow too…
We should have trust in our life, (then),
Goals will surely be won one day
Mind! O Mind! Change yourself
Even if it’s a mountain, or snow, face it and fight
Our mind should never falter
We should never feel ‘What kind of life is this?’
Is there a human heart with no wounds in it?
As time passes, wounds turn to illusions that vanish
Only the chiselled stones can become statues over soil
Only the mind that pains can see permanent joy
Who doesn’t have (such) battles?
(Then) Why tears in your eyes?
If you see a dream and attempt it well
It will surely materialize one day
Mind! O Mind! Change yourself
Even if it’s a mountain, or snow, face it and fight
Every flower says, life is a battlefield where you fight…
Let us recite a poem of wishing
Let us think of the height of the sky
Let us breathe hard work like our life breath …
A hundred thousand dreams in your eyes,
All the goals in your heart ,
There is no one to win over you,
Fight with determination …
Oh man! If one wounds your heart and sows it,
It will become a tree
Disgrace and failure will all becomes the springs
Is there a history without failure?
Do not fret my friend
If you have an aim and it has clarity
You can even claim the sky
Mind! O Mind! Change yourself
Even if it’s a mountain, or snow, face it and fight
Every flower says, life is a battlefield, where you fight…
Every new dawn says, if there is night, day will follow too…
One needs trust in life
Goals will surely be won one day
Mind! O Mind! Change yourself
Even if it’s a mountain, or snow, face it and fight …
