Pachai Nirame (Tamil)

Film: Alaipayuthey (2001)

Music: A.R. Rahman

Lyrics: Vairamuthu

Singers: Hariharan, Clinton Cerejo, Dominic Cerejo

This song describes a woman's beauty using colors, the lyrics are exquisite.

Niram in Tamil means Colour.

Each stanza focuses on one colour & you can see the aesthetic and mood changing on screen as well.

Pachai = Green

Sivappu = Red

Manjal = yellow

Blue and Black are not mentioned by name but alluded to in imagery..

The colour of a peacock's neck, the colour of a cloudless sky

The colour of the night, the colour of a crow's wings

And finally,

vellai = White
