Happy Mother's day!

Happy Mother's day to all mothers (young, old and would-be). May your children remember you and love you always! May all the mothers shower their love on their children and all children, particularly on those who don't have one. In this connection, I spent some time and compiled a list of lullabies and other mother-child songs from many languages. Add to this your own selection and if any link does not work, please inform me and I will make the necessary corrections.

Motherhood is a GREAT BOON to all mothers , every moment of motherhood is the most wonderful enjoyment in this world. Happy mother's day to all beloved mothers.

JKM sir, there are also other lullabies which can be added to here- These are the usual lullabies that I sing for my son (poor boy, he had to go thru all these things. ha ha ha)
a) Omana thingal kidavo (this is a famous malayalam lullaby which was written by the paternal uncle of Trivandrum Raja Swathi thirunaal, to be sung by his mother when Swathi thirunaal was born, as he was the only boy child in the family after a long time. The Britishers were about to take over the ruling power of trivandrum from the kingdom saying that they don't have any son to inherit the kingdom. That time Swathi thirunaal was born and the ruling power vested back with the Raja's family. So he was a special child for that family)
b) Ambaadi thannil ore unni (Malayalam song)
c) Aaayarpadi maligaiyil thai madiyil Kanrinai pol (Tamil SOng)
d) Tamil version of vaTapatraSAyiki varahAla lAli - Varam thantha Samiki vadhamaana laali

JKM Sir, you can also add one more song which is also my favourite song from a malayalam movie Shanthwanam - Unni Vaavaavo pon unni vaavaavo (Sung by KS Chitra)

JKM sir, We can also add some more lullabies like -

1) Madhava mamava deva (by ML Vasantha Kumari known as MLV or Bombay Jayashree- I have heard both the versions)
2) Arirendum Kaveri (by MLV)
3) Muthiloru mutho (by MLV)
4) Kanno kamalapoo (by MLV)
5) Kanne Kalaimane kanni mayil enna kandean unnai naane (from the movie Moondram pirai)

Also there are some more lullabies in Tamil Folk song sung by Dr Pushpavanam Kuppusamy but i don't have the links right now.

After compiling all these links coming from other members also, can you please post the topic once again with all these links?

Mahalakshmi

jkmrao's picture

Just to inform that a few more links have been added under additions to the list. Thanks for your interest, mahAlakshmI ma'am. I was aware of MLV's album even earlier. I have added it too. I'll check up for the other links soon.

Regards! - mOhana

JKM sir, thanks for your updated list

In the additions to the list, can you identify the child's voice in the song jojo laali naa haaDuve? For those who know immediately the answer, could you wait sometime to give a chance to the others? kesarina kamala (having the song nagu nI nagu) is one of the few kalpana movies I haven't watched. Another one of her movies I would love to watch is mukti (based on the novel SApa). One of the songs I love in that movie is yAravaru yAravaru yAravaru yArO, bAgilali baMdavau niMdavaru yArO?
