Paalum Theli Thenum

Hello Kutties…

We are going to hear and learn another simple Slogam today

Today the slogam is for our first God – Children’s favorite God!

Lord Ganapathi – also called Lord Ganesha.

Kutties let us get started…

Paalum, Theli Thenum, Paagum, Parupum,

Ivai Naangum Kalandunaku Naan Tharuven,

Kolam Sei, Thunga Kari Mugathu Thoomaniye,

Nee Enaku, Sanga Thamizh Moondrum, Thaa Thaa Thaa!

Meaning

This is one of the songs that Kids sing to Lord Ganesha. This lines are framed in a very friendly way.

Just like you kids talking to your friends.

You Kutties are so close to Lord Ganapathi, So you are saying to him that you will give him four things and in turn ask him for wisdom.

Lord Pillaiyar is a god who loves to eat. So In the first line we sing offering him four eatables like Milk, Pure Honey, Jaggery and Dhal.

In the second line we sing that we will mix then all well ourself and give it to him.

The Third line of the song is framed to asking for the blessing of the Great Lord with the elephant’s face and who is always priceless as a very precious gem.

At last we sing asking him to give us the Wisdom we need for life.

This song was first sang by Agathir a great sage and wise man of the Saga times. In those times the Three Sanga Tamil was the greatest wisdom which he asks for.
