Kattu malli poothirukka Kaaval kaaran paarthirukka
Attam pottu mayilakaala Thottam maeya pakkuthada
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Kattu malli poothirukka Kaaval kaaran paarthirukka
Kattu malli poothirukka Kaaval kaaran paarthirukka
Attam pottu mayilakaala Thottam maeya pakkuthada
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Kottai suvar pola vaeliyirukku Kuthungkaruvaela mullumirukku
Kottai suvar pola vaeliyirukku Kuthungkaruvaela mullumirukku

Attam pottu mayilakaala Thottam maeya pakkuthada
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Mattukaara vela On matta konjam pathukadaa
Song Meaning & Analysis
This song from the 1959 film 'Vannakili' uses a vivid rural metaphor to convey a moral message. It depicts a scene where a playful bull, likened to a peacock, attempts to graze in a garden filled with blooming wild jasmine, all while a vigilant guard is watching. The repeated plea to "Velan, the bull owner, please watch your bull" serves as a direct warning. The garden is well-protected with a fort-like fence, thorny bushes, and a strong gardener ready with a stick, emphasizing the consequences of trespassing or coveting what belongs to others.
Beyond the literal imagery, the song delivers a profound ethical lesson. It cautions against straying onto forbidden paths, losing one's sense of judgment, and behaving like an uncontrolled animal. The lyrics explicitly state that humans should not devolve into beastly behavior and, most importantly, should not harbor desires for others' possessions. It's a timeless message about self-control, respect for boundaries, and the dangers of greed, wrapped in a simple yet powerful narrative that resonates with common wisdom.
