Grandma generation what they given to us what we convert it to... describing the whole thing in thamizh words most of the thamizh words used in this song was forgotten and rarely used by current thamizh generation. from dhee voice - each lines not connect with next line - but it remember our life in early 80's represent some story. "Enjoy enjamiiiiiiiiiiiii"
The beauty of this song is the way Arivu converts his personal story into a universal story. Arivu comes from suppressed group of people in India. His fore fathers were Indenture labors who went to sri lankha - toiled in virgin forest and converted land into Tea estates ( we can see Arivu sing in midst of tea plantations in visual). later they were forced to exile back to Tamil Nadu after few generation stating that "THEY DONT BELONG THERE" ( EMMIGRANT). He sings about his grand mother Valiammal . We can see her in the last frame sitting in the chair. Valliyammal --- his fore fathers-- mother earth. Thus he link this to tell the global truth of How Labors and land less farmers dont get the real fruit of their work. (Alienation of Human labor) ----- He reaches to people through his song to understand the "root " which could help in understanding that Its not caste , color, religion, language are real things but Nature and Human labor are.
The lyrics in English only brings 30% to 40% of the emotions. If you understand tamil you might shed tears. In English lyric says "what is the matter my sugarcane", but the metaphor actually means "why worry my dear sweet boy". Exactly how any grandma say. Success of the song is the truth behind it
yeah, unfortunately that's reallly true. its just like if you were to translate english poetry into another language...you'd get the literal translation, yeah, but so much would be lost in translation...it just wont convey the same emotion or beauty.
@@sangeethai That's what Classical Languages actually does. They are so deep and can't be Translated or conveyed as such. Tamil, Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Hebrew all the same. They are Classical 👍🏼
It’s also like the Grandmother is saying “my generation have preserved the land in a bountiful and productive way for you, so what are you lacking Grandson?” That’s why there’s a line literally translating to “what’s lacking my dear Grandson? What’s lacking?”👍🏿
Paati is always sweet and awesome ! The way she fondly calls us " en Chella karumbu " " Chella kutty " 🙏❤️😍😘 We can run to her for safety from Mom and dad 😀😂
Dad... u got goose, we got tears because of this song... ur video reaction for this song is awsm... we all love u... so so much... நான் அஞ்சு மரம் வளர்தேன்... அழகான தோட்டம் வச்சேன்... தோட்டம் செழித்தாலும்... என் தொண்ட நனையலயே...
Hey Dad, he is not just talking about his family or ancestors simply, he also talks about how the first civilization started. Like a link referring to Keezhadi how civilization started on the river banks. If you could revisit the rap part at 06:42, you will understand.
@@Dadsden those lyrics are the deepest in the song! It's about the history of tamil civilization, how people worked to built an urban civilization some 4500 yrs ago in Indus valley and 1000 years later in banks of Vaigai(One such site is Keeezhadi), Thamirabharani etc. The tamils (who were the farmers and potters) who build the most ancient civilization in all of south asia( still living in Tamilnadu not as some minority tribes but as people representing 90% of state's population) are now categorized as low caste people since the rule of tamilnadu by Madurai sultanate(13th century), Vijayanagar empire(14-17th), the English colonists(18th-20th) and finally after independence by government(1947-now) ,trying to promote Sanskrit as the superior language and Hindi and it's speakers as the ancestors of whole India by neglecting real history and archaeological evidence that proves otherwise.
Hey Dad, this is Vijay from Toronto, Canada. Hope you remind me. Long time, I moved from Miami to Toronto last year. Anyhow, Let me explain the exact meaning of this song which will open up your eye. Somehow you got the context of the song but still I want to explain further with exact importance. As you know this song has deep message for every mankind. Especially, when the male vocal lyrics comes, it is consider as the Mother Nature is singing/saying. “I planted fives trees, Nurtured a beautiful garden, My garden is flourishing, Yet my throat remains dry” that means the Mother Nature gave 5 elements Earth, Space, Water, Air and Land, then why are you still struggling to survive in this world. Because we failed to save and look after nature. That's why people suffer from not being able to live with nature everywhere. People living in the metro cities have no idea about Nature, but the people who live in the village know the value of nature. Next half... this time Mother Nature is asking ... Plz note the point “What the matter my dear? my sugarcane? (means like sweety) my grandson? and then it says “Bitter Gourd in my canopy, it has given us seeds, Left by our mom and dad... this is a powerful message that means those old mans are not Poor people or Farmers or Someone came without meaning...(that's what most of the people are thinking) actually they are all our ancestor, they left the seeds through our mom & dad... so what is meat by “Seeds” (everyone gets confused in this part) the exact meaning is “ the Current Generation” are the Seeds who failed to respect and save the nature. Only Tamil people knows the real value of these lyrics that also after listening to two-three times which make us emotion whenever we see those old people. Honestly, our ancestors lived their life happily with nature but we are poor people who spoiled the Mother Nature by expanding farms and cities are leaving less room for wildlife. The other major causes are the direct exploitation of wildlife such as hunting, climate change, pollution and the spread of invasive species. Climate change is set to become ever more destructive.. 😢🥺 Now plz watch the song again with this information, especially whenever the male version comes focus on the lyrics by thinking of Mother Nature. At this time, I’m sure now you'll feel the powerful message in your heart. “The environment is where we all meet; where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share” said by Lady Bird Johnson
I just came to The comment section to explain the real meaning of this song which nobody had understood yet, but you killed it man.. Vijay it’s awesome thanks for making ppl understand.. and the subtitles are worst in this song
*I planted five trees , and a beautiful **garden.My** garden flourished yet my throat remains dry* That's the way people lived here , even if they starve they would never stop farming or gardening, every household would have atleast 2-3 yams,greens,vegetables in their house they'd grow them so that the next generation can taste the fruit of their labour
Arivu is singing about his Grandma and his native village. The lady who is sitting on the sofa at the end is his actual granny. Through his own experience he is representing the collective experience of majority tamil people. Legendary music director Ilaiyaraja did the same thing with his earlier songs.
The context of happiness : "mummari" - this indicates a flourishing season of 3 rains in a year. "Ambari" - a bedecked elephant on which kings ride around the kingdom with happiness and satisfaction that his people are happy in times of prosperity peace and happiness that comes when rains three times in a year. It is believed a good Ruler makes the rain god happy to shower three rain seasons 👍
Dad, I personally feel this song talks on quite a lot topics ...the nature,creatures,tamil civilization, slavery, oppression,farmers,politics,tamil people,Sri Lankan tea plantation workers as Arivu's grand mother was one among them as he told in a show(the grandma voiced lamenting represents her)..the word enjoy ENJAAMI(meaning- my lord ,JAA MI or SAAMI is a colloquial word used to address their masters by the oppressed people ,this literally tells that this song is from their perspective)itself speaks loads.Though we toil ,cultivate,civilize...we are left with nothing end of the day,we give but nothing we got is the hidden dark truth..the last shot of the song has all the credited people in the frame is what I noted
Like Arivu, There are lot of people from the past in our land & with our language talked about the wellbeing, oppression, Socialism, Communism, etc., But it never reached your world, after all we remained inside our land and spent our days ever happily and with harmony to the nature. If there was no social media like today, we would have been unknown and our pain and thoughts would have been never heard of. Though there is no superiority in the world where God created everyone equal, we delivered some superior literature and culture from ancient times with the blessings of our Language THAMIZH. The Political motive from the main land may have stopped us, but social media never stop us from reaching you all. It's great that you realised the chill moments in the song while listening with the words of our land.
This song's tells this world is not only for Humans... It is for all the living creatures like plants, trees, animals and birds.... Our duty is to save them
This song also indirectly hits the pain of tamil people who suffered during Sri Lankan Civil war.. about 300,000 innocent kids,men and women were killed ... including rape and abuse.. this war was from 1950s but got severe from 2000 because of this only most tamils flew out of the country not knowing what to do and how to survive.. but god's grace Tamil still exists..
I have planted five trees because of that the garden is flourishing.... "MY THROAT REMAINS DRY" ... This line indicates that she is not even getting adequate money to feed herself even though she is doing good to our nature and land.
It reflects the fate of the working class of the old and of today. The garden flourished but my throat remains dry. You give your best years of your life and while there is prosperity from the result of your efforts, you ended up being tossed aside.
This is the best song to come out of India in many years. Absolute perfection. Lyrics, Music, Vocals, Choreography, Camerawork, the Nature and the Actors
Enjaami = My God Here in Tamil culture, elders like grandmother used to call their grand kids as my god. Because we Take our ancestors as our god.. each clan have their own god and usually they name their kids with their grand parents name or their ancestors (god) name. Its quite natural for a grandparent cal their grandkids My god (En saamy = Enjaami = you are My God alternatively its equal to My dear ) Hope you understand the reason why they named enjaami... The song is about grandmother talks, signs about our root to the next generation and she fondly call the kid as enjaami = my own God
Enjoii mean not for enjoy . That's call enjoii is mean granddaughter , enjami mean is grandson . Tamilnadu village Grandma call to them affectionately enjoiie and enjami , granddaughter and grandson come together
@@avinashviews345 vathri enga tamil nadu enruthu palaika vathaen unku enruthu nan tamilan gudi porathu Ena ya enrukum nalla kathru pacha mattai waiting for you 😅😅😅😅😅
👍 that was super dad ! Understanding the lyrics is key to this song.! It's message is simply outstanding.👍 It just churns the heart when you hear again and again. Lessons, pathos , anguish ,the deprivation and still the cheery rendering of a mourning (oppari) with the reality of how this earth was shaped by everything and handed to us with trust to protect it 🙏🙏 and give the toilers their due respect 👍
Hi Dad the song is mostly about vandalism of nature and exploitation of the people who were native tribes who started civilisation..his interview he has mentioned that his grandma was also one among the people who left the native lands to work in tea plantations abroad during colonisation
Thats so kind of you to react to it again with lyrics and it did help... and thats why you always stay close to Tamilians heart... All the best for you and your family's future success!!
I felt like the grandma telling his grandson about their ancestors and explaining nature and how it goes over generation. The part where they talk about bitter garud and seeds ❤
Also the word enjoy is both a Tamil and English word. In Tamil, Enjaayi means my daughter or girl. So Enjaayi enjaami means girls and boys come together.👍
Birds planted the trees and later it turned into forest then human started for living.but now human take it off the earth and harmful to all creatures .
its simply about how our ancestors used this earth for living, without spoiling the nature and the other living things like animals, how they built this nature for us and how we are spoiling now by pollutions, deforestation in which the land where used by our ancestors.... The important question here is, as we are the future ancestors what we leaved for our next generation only the plastics, land without trees, waters
Omg the goosebumps moments.. What a lyrics thanks to majja for giving this song.. This songs makes guilt of each and every human that this mother 🌎 is not belongs to only human its for each and every living being. Thanks to santhosh narayanan for sema 🎶. Ariu and dhee super .
That amazing grandma verse.." I GREW FIVE PLANT IN GARDEN". That story Was left unfinished in this song... If u know the tradition of tamil cultural.. We can get it... In our native, Grand parent will plant trees coconut, mango and guava trees having pride in their mind that they planting these trees for their unborn and unseen grand children and great... They are deep and immense means... But it's true.. My grandfather planted two trees exactly wen I born.. Saying one for me and one fa me brother.. My grandma says every single time, we drink coconut water from that tree.. Best part is I never saw my grandpa face.. But I felt his love..
Ken bro... I think now feel the depth of the song. See the poetic lyrics of Arivu. The way u explain was so so nice tat too pausing at correct notes was excellent... Hope u enjoyed. Enjoy engamiiii.... Ur awesome
Oppari is indigenous to tamil culture.when someone passes away one tends to pacify their grief by sharing all the good things they experienced with the person who has just passed away whilst they are crying it sounds like a song...like eulogy but not written on paper...on spot they do it each person adds to it....the grandmom voice sings an eulogy to her grandson how they were denied their rights to the land which they plough and tilted and made it fertail generation after generation......
Dad den, you really have an indepth introspective mind as you are almost to the depth in understanding of it...Thanks for promoting it to the world...I really appreciate you. You have to visit Tamilnadu, India once after this Covid pandemic recovers. Again Thanks ...
Every time i hear my grandmother planting trees whenever she has sufficient resources ans says this tree will say my name one day...... I never understood the depth in it... This song made me realize.... How our ancestors were connected to nature... Unlike us connected via social media and internet, phone's....
The best way to put the meaning here is the grandma at centre in last scene represents mother nature and the vocals of this song represents mother nature's voice advicing current generations how older generations cultivated the land and gave importance to nature and she just request us to take care of her and give a good nature to upcoming generations ❤️🙏 namaste
You just can’t translate poetry in 12 minutes, especially when you’re translating across cultures. When she sings ‘caterpillar sister to the frog in the water’ it’s not literal as we all know. She just says how everything in our nature is interlinked and interdependent. She also says how this world we live in was created with the shit that came out of the chicken. There’s a whole lot of stuff in the song that can’t be translated but can be felt. It’s a wake up call to the people to get back to their roots.
This song made me to tears cus I am away form my native country. I thought about my childhood days. Its really powerful..I will say who those living in their own country are blessed people.. the feeling of my land. I admire your speech dad
Bro !!!!!!!!! THANKS, A LOT for this video.., otherwise I would've missed this masterpiece. That's mind-blowing.., those lyrics !! and the way it is presented. Classic!!!
Hey Dad...Arivu is like one of the bestest lyricist and rapper alive in the world...yes I'm saying 'in the world'...Arivu is still not recognized..he should have been celebrated by people here like crazily...as you are a rap fan from America I'm saying this... arivu is for tamilnadu like what Zach Dela Rocha (rage against the machine) and public enemy is to America...he is too political and standing for the people...please react to more of his songs..also if it is possible...also react rage against the machine songs ...,☺️☺️
The change of voice into crying modulation is called oppaari. Its a special kind of art that is very unique and belongs to south india Tamil Nadu....Oppaari always touch ur soul....
Hi... I too from Tamil Nadu, India. I am Tamilian. I am really proud of this song which seeks the young generation around the world to save our agriculture and tradition from the Psychopaths who destroying and polluting our land with many industries.
Sir You’ve taken the efforts to understand and appreciate the essence in it. The truth of life, what we were, where were we and where are us now and what difference we are making now. Such a wonderful strong words which makes people goosebumps and the song narration with the country touch and the laments, seer, Wow. Appreciate your work.
Look how carefully our ancestors preserved the nature for hundreds and thousands of years, but we ruined everything in a span of 3 decades 😭...I feel guilty of this massacre when hearing this song🤧
You got the point... I heard this song more than hundred times..... The way of written words are so powerful in Tamil also it gives feelings only for those who loves earth and natural
The line like " planted five trees and it flourished nice, but still my throat is dry" this means like the grandma of Arivu worked as a farmer in a land where the land belongs to another owner ......so whatever profit goes to thst guy and not grandma ........hope you understand like we hard work but not able to taste the essence.....this line was clearly explained in Arivu lyrics.....btw don't forgot all the lyrics are taken from "Oppari" ....Arivu has mentioned in interview ....Oppari is like whoever died the old ladies use some metamorphs or idioms kind of words to express the feelings which makes even an enemy to cry in the funeral place 😭😭😭.....Oppari we can say even the rock hearted person will get tears in eyes .......Oppari has another side too ....which is like while farming they use to sing to get out from work stress and enjoy the work ........like how we sing song while working 😀
I think only Tamil literature is talk about urbanisation cultures of humanity that excavated all over the world like cairns circle, menhirs, sarphophagus, potteries, urn burials culture , water irrigation system ring wells ,food, tradings and etc . No others.
The Main Concept Is Its Telling To Enjoy Our Nature By Treating Good. Dont Be Arrested At Home.. Enjoy The Nature Which Is Given By And Preserved By Oir Ancestors .. Go out In the Rain Enjoy With The Animals... Dont Destroy Animals House For Our Purposes... Thats The Deep Meaning.. and It Also Says About The Struggles Of People To Preserve The Nature... 🥰
Dad this song not just tell about his grandparents this song dedicates the first civilization of world "keezhadi" started in river banks rest the rap at 6:23 you can understand it dad!
More than tamil lyrics, English is the only language to justify the exact meaning of My Tamil... It has just a crisp and clear catchy words like my tamil.. Tamil🔥🔥🔥 Eng🔥
Hi dad. It's about the ancestors actually about the natives of our land, who never wanted devlopment, who lived with nature and nature's nourish them. They just given the land to us and the people who got it built cities spoiled all of them and leading a life which is against the law of nature. And there are set of people who still follow the culture of our natives have been suppresed by the people who think they are cultured. Now the natives are minority here. And the song is to represent and support them. Hope u got it.
Look how carefully our ancestors preserved the nature for hundreds and thousands of years, but we ruined everything in a span of 3 decades 😭...I feel guilty of this massacre when hearing this song🤧
You have got shocked with emotions when she started the "Oppaari" version I have planted 5trees @ 5:47 ..! Am I right sir..? That's the power of the language , tradition,and lifestyle of TAMIL peoples. We all evolved from a tiny point to a large world right...? Thanks for honoring our language and culture. Be blessed...! You emotions at 3:10 made my tears rolled out. வாழ்த்துகள். நலமுடனும் வளமுடனும் வாழ வாழ்த்துகள்.

This is a warning to our world..!! Need to think our future generation..!! Be happy with nature.. Don't destroy the nature and our farmers..!! I love your reaction Dad.. And also when you are trying to understand very beautiful..!!
6:34 It's about the history of tamil civilization, how people worked to built an urban civilization some 4500 yrs ago in Indus valley and 1000 years later in banks of Vaigai(One such site is Keeezhadi), Thamirabharani etc. The tamils (who were the farmers and potters in previous lines) who build the most ancient civilization in all of south asia( still living in Tamilnadu not as some minority tribes but as people representing 90% of state's population) are categorized as low caste people since the rule of tamilnadu by Madurai sultanate(13th century), Vijayanagar empire(14-17th), the English colonists(18th-20th) and finally after independence by government(1947-now) ,trying to promote Sanskrit as the superior language and Hindi and it's speakers as the ancestors of whole India by neglecting real history and archaeological evidence that proves otherwise.

It's great that you realised the chill moments in the song while listening with the words of our land.
Seriously this song is like a modern art. Everyone has their own perspective and it has meaning too!
Hi dad, between cuckoo it start with Kingfisher, frog and Catapillar. It resembles the food chain
Makes sense
Dhee sung that the frog and caterpillar are SISTERS. So, no cannibalism, please, only harmony. :)
Hi.. Its not Caterpillar - it is Blanket worm. Generally frogs don't eat that. So they called the Blanket worm as sister to Frog
yes
This song's tells this world is not only for Humans... It is for all the living creatures like plants, trees, animals and birds....
Our duty is to save them
💯
This song also indirectly hits the pain of tamil people who suffered during Sri Lankan Civil war.. about 300,000 innocent kids,men and women were killed ... including rape and abuse.. this war was from 1950s but got severe from 2000
because of this only most tamils flew out of the country not knowing what to do and how to survive.. but god's grace Tamil still exists..
Yeah I felt that too ,also I wouldn't call it a war ...it was a pure genocide what they did and what our "leaders" did in return is sit and watch.
I have planted five trees because of that the garden is flourishing.... "MY THROAT REMAINS DRY" ... This line indicates that she is not even getting adequate money to feed herself even though she is doing good to our nature and land.
Semma.
S exactly
It reflects the fate of the working class of the old and of today.
The garden flourished but my throat remains dry.
You give your best years of your life and while there is prosperity from the result of your efforts, you ended up being tossed aside.
Literally everyone who heard this song got chills👍
This is the best song to come out of India in many years. Absolute perfection. Lyrics, Music, Vocals, Choreography, Camerawork, the Nature and the Actors
Enjaami = My God
Here in Tamil culture, elders like grandmother used to call their grand kids as my god. Because we Take our ancestors as our god.. each clan have their own god and usually they name their kids with their grand parents name or their ancestors (god) name.
Its quite natural for a grandparent cal their grandkids My god (En saamy = Enjaami = you are My God alternatively its equal to My dear )
Hope you understand the reason why they named enjaami... The song is about grandmother talks, signs about our root to the next generation and she fondly call the kid as enjaami = my own God
My grandmother used to call me that
Still my grandparents or aged people in my relation call us enjaami
My grandparents call me when I was young now they call my son like that.
true
Enjoii mean not for enjoy . That's call enjoii is mean granddaughter , enjami mean is grandson . Tamilnadu village Grandma call to them affectionately enjoiie and enjami , granddaughter and grandson come together
This song states that the world is not only for humans .. let live the other creatures.. 😸

👍 that was super dad ! Understanding the lyrics is key to this song.! It's message is simply outstanding.👍 It just churns the heart when you hear again and again. Lessons, pathos , anguish ,the deprivation and still the cheery rendering of a mourning (oppari) with the reality of how this earth was shaped by everything and handed to us with trust to protect it 🙏🙏 and give the toilers their due respect 👍
Hi Dad the song is mostly about vandalism of nature and exploitation of the people who were native tribes who started civilisation..his interview he has mentioned that his grandma was also one among the people who left the native lands to work in tea plantations abroad during colonisation
Thats so kind of you to react to it again with lyrics and it did help... and thats why you always stay close to Tamilians heart... All the best for you and your family's future success!!
It really did help me!
I felt like the grandma telling his grandson about their ancestors and explaining nature and how it goes over generation. The part where they talk about bitter garud and seeds ❤
Cookoo cookoo - this was how our ancestors communicated while hunting
Enjaami - en saami - en - my, saami - god
Yeah..My grand ma always call me like that. (Pure Village boy)😅

@@muhammedrashid1244 I know dude... நானும் தமிழன்தான்
Also the word enjoy is both a Tamil and English word. In Tamil, Enjaayi means my daughter or girl. So Enjaayi enjaami means girls and boys come together.👍

Every Tamil song describes the ...Life, Culture,Tradition and livelihood of Tamil people s
True 🔥
Birds planted the trees and later it turned into forest then human started for living.but now human take it off the earth and harmful to all creatures .
🔥🔥
Exactly translated 👍
@@prabug5522 thank u bro
its simply about how our ancestors used this earth for living, without spoiling the nature and the other living things like animals, how they built this nature for us and how we are spoiling now by pollutions, deforestation in which the land where used by our ancestors.... The important question here is, as we are the future ancestors what we leaved for our next generation only the plastics, land without trees, waters
And also it says this world is not only for humans!
nice work ajaie
Omg the goosebumps moments.. What a lyrics thanks to majja for giving this song.. This songs makes guilt of each and every human that this mother 🌎 is not belongs to only human its for each and every living being.
Thanks to santhosh narayanan for sema 🎶. Ariu and dhee super .
That amazing grandma verse.." I GREW FIVE PLANT IN GARDEN". That story Was left unfinished in this song... If u know the tradition of tamil cultural.. We can get it...
In our native, Grand parent will plant trees coconut, mango and guava trees having pride in their mind that they planting these trees for their unborn and unseen grand children and great...
They are deep and immense means... But it's true.. My grandfather planted two trees exactly wen I born.. Saying one for me and one fa me brother.. My grandma says every single time, we drink coconut water from that tree.. Best part is I never saw my grandpa face.. But I felt his love..
Ken bro... I think now feel the depth of the song. See the poetic lyrics of Arivu. The way u explain was so so nice tat too pausing at correct notes was excellent... Hope u enjoyed. Enjoy engamiiii.... Ur awesome
Oppari is indigenous to tamil culture.when someone passes away one tends to pacify their grief by sharing all the good things they experienced with the person who has just passed away whilst they are crying it sounds like a song...like eulogy but not written on paper...on spot they do it each person adds to it....the grandmom voice sings an eulogy to her grandson how they were denied their rights to the land which they plough and tilted and made it fertail generation after generation......
Dad den, you really have an indepth introspective mind as you are almost to the depth in understanding of it...Thanks for promoting it to the world...I really appreciate you. You have to visit Tamilnadu, India once after this Covid pandemic recovers. Again Thanks ...
Every time i hear my grandmother planting trees whenever she has sufficient resources ans says this tree will say my name one day...... I never understood the depth in it... This song made me realize.... How our ancestors were connected to nature... Unlike us connected via social media and internet, phone's....
The best way to put the meaning here is the grandma at centre in last scene represents mother nature and the vocals of this song represents mother nature's voice advicing current generations how older generations cultivated the land and gave importance to nature and she just request us to take care of her and give a good nature to upcoming generations ❤️🙏 namaste
well said 😍😢
You just can’t translate poetry in 12 minutes, especially when you’re translating across cultures.
When she sings ‘caterpillar sister to the frog in the water’ it’s not literal as we all know. She just says how everything in our nature is interlinked and interdependent. She also says how this world we live in was created with the shit that came out of the chicken.
There’s a whole lot of stuff in the song that can’t be translated but can be felt. It’s a wake up call to the people to get back to their roots.
டேய்.... Foreigner's reactions and comments படிக்கலாம்னு வந்தா எல்லாம் நம்ம பயளுக தான் இருக்கானுங்க...
தமிழ் பண்பாட்ட விட்டு ரொம்ப தூரம் வந்துட்ட தமிழனும் வெளிநாட்டான்தான்
அஞ்சு மரம் வளர்த்தேன்.. அழகான தோட்டம் வைச்சேன்.. தோட்டம் செழிச்சாலும் என் தொண்டை நனையலயே.. வலி மிகுந்த வரிகள்..I am so proud to be tamilachi💪
This song made me to tears cus I am away form my native country. I thought about my childhood days. Its really powerful..I will say who those living in their own country are blessed people.. the feeling of my land. I admire your speech dad
Bro !!!!!!!!! THANKS, A LOT for this video.., otherwise I would've missed this masterpiece.
That's mind-blowing.., those lyrics !! and the way it is presented. Classic!!!
The 20 dislikes are from corporate companies
Unbelievable Track... earth moving msg !
It's not only for Indians ... It's to the world... How mankind evolved and what we need to do... Also to save the This beautiful land.
Really honest reaction like from Tamil nadu 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And you made me she'd tears by your deeply involved reactions.
Thank you sir.
Be blessed.
You spread so much positivity Dad's den, you are a hero to lots of us. Lots of love from Chennai
Hey Dad...Arivu is like one of the bestest lyricist and rapper alive in the world...yes I'm saying 'in the world'...Arivu is still not recognized..he should have been celebrated by people here like crazily...as you are a rap fan from America I'm saying this... arivu is for tamilnadu like what Zach Dela Rocha (rage against the machine) and public enemy is to America...he is too political and standing for the people...please react to more of his songs..also if it is possible...also react rage against the machine songs ...,☺️☺️
Thanks for the info even if it was directed to Dad I think I will start listening to Arivu too.
I stumbled upon your channel good sir
And I got to say I love your eye for detail
Love the content
Simply we can say, Save tree's.save world, enjoy my dear❤️❤️❤️.
The change of voice into crying modulation is called oppaari. Its a special kind of art that is very unique and belongs to south india Tamil Nadu....Oppaari always touch ur soul....
Hi... I too from Tamil Nadu, India. I am Tamilian. I am really proud of this song which seeks the young generation around the world to save our agriculture and tradition from the Psychopaths who destroying and polluting our land with many industries.
Everyone react to this song . But dad den reacting to lyrics . Awesome dear . You are converted tamilan ( நீ தமிழன் )😍😁😁
Love From Tamilnadu ❤️❤️❤️ Keep rocking dad ✨✨✨
His reaction proved explicitly that Tamil is the mother of all language. I can see that Tamil penetrating through his nerves.
this is a grammy worthy song... with a universal message... hope it reaches up the billboard
Grammy is not worthy of this song!
Daddy daddy! oh my daddy unnai kandaley ananthamey😍😘
I was really hoping that u understood the lyrics after watching this song, but u made a separate breakdown video and surprised us❤️
Sir You’ve taken the efforts to understand and appreciate the essence in it. The truth of life, what we were, where were we and where are us now and what difference we are making now. Such a wonderful strong words which makes people goosebumps and the song narration with the country touch and the laments, seer, Wow. Appreciate your work.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate this comment.
In a nutshell, this song is all about how we are all related. By 'all' I mean, the flora, fauna and we humans
Very correct
Look how carefully our ancestors preserved the nature for hundreds and thousands of years, but we ruined everything in a span of 3 decades 😭...I feel guilty of this massacre when hearing this song🤧
Good reactions dad!! 👍
Love from Sri Lanka❤️
Goose bumpss goosebumps goose bumps.... Oh my God... The last frame is amazing.... Its our moothakkudi(Anscestor) mentioning...
I Liked the way he shaking his head that was nice😘🥰🥰and the song too😊😊spread love❤️❤️
You got the point... I heard this song more than hundred times..... The way of written words are so powerful in Tamil also it gives feelings only for those who loves earth and natural
The line like " planted five trees and it flourished nice, but still my throat is dry" this means like the grandma of Arivu worked as a farmer in a land where the land belongs to another owner ......so whatever profit goes to thst guy and not grandma ........hope you understand like we hard work but not able to taste the essence.....this line was clearly explained in Arivu lyrics.....btw don't forgot all the lyrics are taken from "Oppari" ....Arivu has mentioned in interview ....Oppari is like whoever died the old ladies use some metamorphs or idioms kind of words to express the feelings which makes even an enemy to cry in the funeral place 😭😭😭.....Oppari we can say even the rock hearted person will get tears in eyes .......Oppari has another side too ....which is like while farming they use to sing to get out from work stress and enjoy the work ........like how we sing song while working 😀
That chill during the last 45 sec, when she touches the hands of the old man those lines ❤️
Unlike other foriegn reactions u actually make an effort and understand this stuff.. amazing man
I think only Tamil literature is talk about urbanisation cultures of humanity that excavated all over the world like cairns circle, menhirs, sarphophagus, potteries, urn burials culture , water irrigation system ring wells ,food, tradings and etc . No others.
I can see many reaction videos for this song but a first lyric discussion video.. WoW.. Ken u have taken this to another level...
You're intro is everything!!
Hi Ken you done great job...about songs fully earth and people of farmers... Exactly feel of Music, Depth of Tamil Words, Earth and Farmers
The Main Concept Is Its Telling To Enjoy Our Nature By Treating Good. Dont Be Arrested At Home.. Enjoy The Nature Which Is Given By And Preserved By Oir Ancestors
.. Go out In the Rain Enjoy With The Animals... Dont Destroy Animals House For Our Purposes... Thats The Deep Meaning.. and It Also Says About The Struggles Of People To Preserve The Nature... 🥰
Dad this song not just tell about his grandparents this song dedicates the first civilization of world "keezhadi" started in river banks rest the rap at 6:23 you can understand it dad!
More than tamil lyrics, English is the only language to justify the exact meaning of My Tamil... It has just a crisp and clear catchy words like my tamil.. Tamil🔥🔥🔥 Eng🔥
Hi dad. It's about the ancestors actually about the natives of our land, who never wanted devlopment, who lived with nature and nature's nourish them. They just given the land to us and the people who got it built cities spoiled all of them and leading a life which is against the law of nature. And there are set of people who still follow the culture of our natives have been suppresed by the people who think they are cultured. Now the natives are minority here. And the song is to represent and support them. Hope u got it.
Look how carefully our ancestors preserved the nature for hundreds and thousands of years, but we ruined everything in a span of 3 decades 😭...I feel guilty of this massacre when hearing this song🤧
Even I felt the power when you were explaining!! I had goosebumps..... It's the most wonderful tamil song I watched recently.

Wow!! Thank you!
Thanking you for making us proud 🙏
Awesome song and that attention quotes s super
6:34 It's about the history of tamil civilization, how people worked to built an urban civilization some 4500 yrs ago in Indus valley and 1000 years later in banks of Vaigai(One such site is Keeezhadi), Thamirabharani etc.
The tamils (who were the farmers and potters in previous lines) who build the most ancient civilization in all of south asia( still living in Tamilnadu not as some minority tribes but as people representing 90% of state's population) are categorized as low caste people since the rule of tamilnadu by Madurai sultanate(13th century), Vijayanagar empire(14-17th), the English colonists(18th-20th) and finally after independence by government(1947-now) ,trying to promote Sanskrit as the superior language and Hindi and it's speakers as the ancestors of whole India by neglecting real history and archaeological evidence that proves otherwise.
Wow... Your super great. 😎...What you have told was so true... I appreciate that you explained it so well...
