Raja Raja Cholan

A classic by Ilayaraaja.

There are lots of issues with timing in many places. Especially at the beginnings of various stanzas. My pronunciation and enunciation also need a lot of work.

Here are the lyrics

raja raja chozhan naan enai aalum kaathal desam neethaan
poove kaathal theeve
man meethu sorgam vanthu pennaaga aanathe
ullaasa boomi inggu undaanathe

(raja)

kannodu kangal yetrum kartpoora theebame
kai theendum pothu paayum minsaarame
ullaasa medai mele orangga naadagam
inbanggal paadam sollum en thaayagam
ingganggu oonjalaaga naan pogiren
angganggu aasai theevil naan vegiren
un raaga moganam en kaathal vaaganam
senthaamarai senthaen mazhai en aavi neeye devi

(raja)

kalloora paarkum paarvai ulloora paayume
thullaamal thullum ullam sallaabame
villodu ambu rendu kollaamal kolluthe
penpaavai kangal endru poi solluthe
munthaanai moodum rani selvaakkile
en kaathal kangal pogum pallaakkile
thaenodai orame neeraadum nerame
pullangguzhal thallaadume ponmaeni kaelaai rani

(raja)
