Amidst the tight schedules I am having at office, I am forced to write this post. Though I liked Ilayaraja's Thiruvasagam very much, I didn't happen to hear all the songs. Today, for the first time, I heard "Muthunarchaamam" song (hope I got the word correctly). One word to summarize the experience: Peerless!!!
The composition was so awesome that I was simply pulled into it. I was just living the moment...and that's no common occurrence! Blessed is Ilayaraja to produce such soul stirring stuff and blessed are we to be able to hear what the Maestro has to offer.
I am not trying to say this is the best song of the album, but just that it struck me real hard. The other songs are equally peerless as well. One small hitch I have is my inability to understand the words which would have taken the experience to an altogether different plane:((
Nevertheless, the web comes in handy. One such translation for Thiruvasagam I found is

Thiruchitrambalam.
p.s: Chummaava sonnanga "Thiruvaasagathukku urugaadhar oru vaasagathukkum urugaar"nu...
