You know what, this song has been reacted by Americans, British, Australians, Africans and many others and trust me, all of them understood the song in the same way. This simply proves that eventhough we look different, speak different etc. we all are part of Mother Nature in the end. We all are one. #UnityInDiversity. That's what India represents. #WorldIsOne.
In Tamil language, the meaning of the the word "Odiyaa" in beginning is "Come on". Actually the real pronounciation is "Odi vaa" and while talking its changed as "Odiyaa". In this song, the grand parent calling out their grand children to enjoy the mother nature. And, the true meaning of "en saami" (which is pronounced as enjaami while talking fast) is "my lord". Our grand parents loved us more than anything (I'm very much blessed that they raised me in my childhood). hence they called and treated us precious gems as their gods. Those were golden times we had those days. Eventhough we did something wrong, we have not been punished and our grand parents humbly saying not to do with lots of love and after hearing that, we never do it again. The lyrics are like a song from grandchildren singing out about how everything in nature is connected from the kingfisher to the caterpillar to the peacocks to the elephants and the rains. They're calling out to people to “enjoy, my lords" like the forefathers and -mother’s passed it on with so much richness. They sing about how our homes, our cities, our countries are built from the poop that chicken left from feeding on grains grown by our own people, and how the seeds left on the plants are here for the next generations to feed on, so take care and be respectful. Arivu's different older voice represents our grandmother's voice who is very much worrying about the nature. And Tamil is the oldest matriarchal society in the world.
@@anas6959 srilanka belongs to native tamils...Siddhar Agathiyar, Ravana have lived in srilanka during 5020 BC - the sinhalese are the one who migrated from orissa/ andhra later in the last few 1000 years and occupied the land.. they dont understand that we all one one.. because Telugu / sanskrit / oriyaa have root with Tamil .. basically Tamils are the native people of this beautiful planet.. its the mother of all other languages.. thats why thailand (thai means mother in tamil ) meaning..
This Tamil song is the brain child of A.R. Rahman who through his initiative called Maajja is helping out Tamil independent artists to showcase their talent. Dhee is the daughter of renowned music composer Santosh Narayanan and has sung popular songs like Rowdy Baby and Arivu is a famous rapper known for the rap portion in Vaathi Raid song from Master movie. You can check Rahman's video to understand more about this initiative - "Join The Cultural Renaissance | maajja | A. R. Rahman"
To those who ask what is so beautiful about this song... HOLD MY GLASS “It’s from mother language of this world... n telling the true pain of this world too” Love Tamil ❤️ Mallu boy 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
FYI - Ride on the elephant, it’s a proverbial prose in its native language (Tamil) it means we should live a life to its fullest and enjoy the moments of life as riding on elephant and yet there is an alternate definition as well that raid your problems away from your life like riding on elephant. However in this context the first meaning suites perfectly.
This song will gives goose bumps to foreigners, even be like lullabies for them because this music is in their genes. Tamil is the oldest language in the world & parai is the oldest musical instrument in the world. Be proud to be a தமிழன்
Started with drum beat (parai) and that vocal called 'kolavai'...jungle beat all over...This entire song explains about how the tamil civilization started, how we lived along with the nature, how the nature was, how our ancestors made it and passed it to us.. Now we ought to enjoy all the things our ancestors gave to us... By coming together enjoy all the nature to it's fullest... This song is in international standard for sure and it insist the need to protect the nature....❤ ❤ loved the reaction
AR Rahman in his lifetime always tried to expose Tamilnadu’s culture and ancient style music. I am so proud that am from the same land TAMILNADU!!!!!💪💪
Tamil song depicts - Mother Nature singing about nature with ancestors about present day life; analyzing the path of life from nature to present day civilization and finally Mother Nature seats our ancestors as the queen to take care of both nature and civilization!
Enjoy Enjaami is produced by Santosh Narayanan under the label of AR Rahman’s Maajja, which was formed to promote independent musicians. Besides singing, Arivu has written the lyrics for the song which has turned out to be a major earworm. “My conversations with my grandmother Valliamma formed the basis of the song,” Arivu says, attributing his success to Valliamma, in an interview to TNM. The song, which is fused with Oppari (lament song sung during a mourning) is a celebration of the ancestors who toiled in the forests and led to human civilization.
In this world everyone should know what's is tamil and what are the difficults are and faced by tamilians based on caste and religions .. Everyone is equal it is to be understood by all that's what I means enjoy enjammi.. I love the people who speaks for equality for all not for them.. itself 👍
The song is both a homage and a lament to land, to the animals and the wildlife that created and lived in forests, which the ancestors shared. It's a thanks to the poorvakudi - the ancient tribe, clan. (Also a reference to the Tamil people who are considered one of the oldest civilisations) The "old woman" voice of Arivu also laments about the fact that the old people created forests even when they were merely surviving, but they did not "benefit" from it. They create it for the next gen.
@@MrRahul6464 you have no music sense whatsoever. They have the same vibe but clearly not a copy, ofcourse you're dumb enough to not be able to distinguish.
@@MrRahul6464 stupid BJP sangi supporter peace of shit ..ur north india manipulated culture which was copied from tamil aaseevagam culture..do u even know that moron 😄. U have zero knowledge ..both songs totally sounds different
From India, Chennai. (Origin of song). The Theme of song is Try to protect mountaineers. Current corporate governance destroying our world which is made my mountaineers. So in this song they playing on their music, on their dress, on their language.
Enjayee Enjaami is actually used to refer daughters and sons, it's like the nature itself calling it's children to come together to be one and protect it and be for each other, for the sake of rhyme in the song and translation Enjayee is used as Enjoy here
“Odiya Odiya “ in the beginning of the song is a slang for odi (run) vaa (come) come running/fast, which we Tamils say when we have something important/interesting to say to others (come fast I’ve something to say to you). Elephants play an important role in preserving the forest and nature, which plays a role in bringing about rain. That’s why Tamil ancestors made us worship the elephants to protect them from poaching. “Mum (3) maari (rain) in Tamil has been mentioned in ancient Tamil literature so many times. The Tamil kings always made sure that their lands received “maadham (monthly) mummaari” 3 times rain) to keep the land fertile. This song speaks about “ ambaari “ in Tamil , a seat fastened to the back of elephants where we can sit and ride, rhyming with mummaari thus connecting the elephants with rain. The messages in this song is for people all over the world. It’s the oldest language in the world, Tamil. Tamil has the root words for many languages around the world like Greek, Turkish, Korean and even Latin according to etymology researchers. This song is about the Tamil’s way of life. How our ancestors preserved this earth for thousands of years but how this generation is destroying all natural resources in the name of development and our offsprings will be left with nothing if this continues. The Tamils always say that all the resources in the earth are for all living things and not only for us humans. Enjoy is English, enjaami is a slang for en (my) saami (lord or god) (we just call our children and grandchildren dearly as “my god”) vaango vaango means come come, onnagi in Tamil means “together as one”. Basically the song says to the younger generation to come together and preserve nature and enjoy together. The thirukkural (sacred verses) written in tamil thousands of years ago by Tamil philosopher Thiruvalluvar also talks about this! This has been translated in many languages around the world. It says “paguthundu (sharing the food that we have with other living beings that are in need) palluyir (many/all living things) ombuthal (protecting all living things). The sound they make at the beginning and end of the video is called “kulavai” in Tamil. Ladies make this sound at the beginning of all festivals and celebrations. Proud to be a Tamil
Definitely a needy, heartful message in the corporate occupied world.....lets come together and save our earth with our ancient knowledge🌍🌍🌍🌱🌱🌱🌧️🌧️🌧️🌾🌾🌾let our home 🌍🌍 breath and feel happy...🌱 happy earth day...🌱
We are not indians, we are tamilans. Proud to be an tamilans போன ஜென்மத்தில் என்ன புண்ணியம் பண்ணனுமா தமிழனாக பிறந்ததற்கு, போன ஜென்மத்தில் என்ன பாவம் பண்ணனும் இந்தியாவில் பிறந்ததற்கு 🙏🙏🙏
Enjaami means, most of a country people follow anchester worship, they believe they still alive in heaven after their death. And here I I would like to inform in all the universe, tamil language only has their meaning for its each and every word,!!!here ( en (என்)means - me) (sa (சா)means ground) (me (மீ) means sky) saami means one who lived in the land then they were gone to sky after their death.our god or anchester.Usaully they call their grandchildren enjaami.in the remembrance of their anchester.
United we stand divided we fall. This song represents about the old ancestors who saved their resources for us. It also represents that the world is not for just for humans but also for other creatures. This Genre of songs is sang in the Tamilian culture when one dies, to regret on his resources and land. Tamil being one of the most oldest mother languages in the world directly/directly connects with our understanding.. #weallarepartofonesinglefamily #worldisonefamily that is what we say as "Vasudhaiv kutumbukam"
Meaning - 1.world is not only for human it for all , 2.old generation given this world precious gift for us but we ? 3. Ecosystem 4. Respect old generation
'Enjoy Enchami' is also a reminder of the ups and downs that a section of people are experiencing.The politics of the struggle given by this song are made clear by the lyrics of 'Enjoy Enchami' which says, 'Even if five trees are planted and it grows into a beautiful garden, the throats of those who planted that tree are dry'. Enjoy Enchami' is a beat that sounds like it's an African song as soon as you hear it. Ariv has written about what happened in his grandmother's generation and in the lives of the Tamils before them. Tamils were enslaved from India to Sri Lanka about 200 years ago during the colonial period. They cut down the dense forests of Ceylon, built cities and worked on tea plantations and other livelihoods. The main reason for the economic growth of Sri Lanka was these wage laborers who plucked leaves from the tea plantations there. But as time went on, these migrant workers were being deported from Sri Lanka. One of these was the grandmother of Ariv. Returning to India from Sri Lanka, she taught her children by doing housework. The Grandmother of Ariv addresses him as En Sami'.
The song was produced by AR Rahman's company in Tamil Nadu, South India. AR Rahman is truly a legend in music and one of the best singers in the world. He is also a two-time Oscar winner in music composing and a Brahmi Award Gold Medalist in Western Music from British AR Rahman has also composed music for a few Hollywood big budget movies
Good you want to know more abt Tamil & thanks for that. FYI: Thatha Thatha = grandfather Partee Partee = grandmother Kalaivettee = Kalai (plough) + Vetee (cutter) So it's about Farmers, cultivation & Agriculture Cuckoo is a real bird that COOS - making the song cuckoo cuckoo in the morning (wake up calls of nature) It sounds just like Dhee does in the video calling onto others. So this cooing bird is called Cuckoo Bird in English just Bcos the bird sings or coos "CUCKOO-CUCKOO" You would have heard of the famous Swiss Cuckoo Bird Clock - it pops out of the clock and goes Cuckoo Cuckoo to sound the hour for the respective time. Annakili is actually Annam (swan) + kizhli (parrot) a name many tamils use to name their girl child meaning beautiful girl (white as swan signifying peace purity & pretty as parrot with nice beautiful eyes n nose) It is just a name like Lilly or Rose describing beauty for a girl child. In reality there is no such one bird but individual birds as in swan (Annam) and parrot (Kilizhi) Cuckoo is a real bird (not just a name to call their children) Annakili is just a name (no such real bird) - describing a beautiful girl See previous comment to know more abt Tamil.
Tamil song, talks about forefathers, how they lived and what they left, and talks about nature and other living beings contribution to our living. And this world belongs to evey living creatures.
The actual thing in the song is the "lyrics" that describes our land & our ancestor's connection with our land (which we lost today) that really heart piercing and the taste of Tamil language in the song (which only Tamil's can feel). Also he also exposed the depth of farmer's pain. Its simply AWESOME ❤️
Cuckoo (Indian Kuyile) here denotes the Cuckoo Bird based on its sounds... The song about rights of the natives of the land, be it human or other living things. What had happened over the years for both and what is our level of understanding - far cry for wake up .. it is a genre called oppari - type of sad songs sung for the dead persons
Sub-titles in English is not the way to understand the song. Its just a verbatim translation, and I bet no one will get the true meaning by just reading the English subtitles.
Tamil is the world's oldest language as well as beautiful language The drums you hear early are called “Parai” in Tamil The power of mother language of all the languages penetrated through her nerves. It's a Tamil song about nature and ancestors This form of singing is called "opaari" which means the song sung when a person is dead. OPPARI a.k.a lamenting for dead a culture followed by Tamils where women gather around the dead and sing together about the dead person. It's a way to grief with the community. In this music they're lamenting for the land lost. மொழி தெரியாதவர்களுக்குக் கூட இந்த பாடலை கேட்டுப் பார்க்கும்போது கண்ணில் கண்ணீர் தழும்பும் இந்த மண்ணை விரும்புகின்ற அனைவருக்கும் இந்த பாடல் சமர்ப்பணம்
The title “Enjoy Enjaami” has so much of meaning. To the people who are unfamiliar about the title, “Enjoy” is combination of two words, En + joy (thaayi), narrated by the Rapper Arivu. “En” means “My” in tamil, "thaayi" is actually "Mother" in Tamil. Combinedly it is "My Mother" ... “Enjaami” is combination of two words, En + Jaami. “En” means “My” in tamil, “Jaami” is actually “Saamy” it means “God” in Tamil, combinedly “My God”. “My God” i.e. "Enjaami" is how elderly people call their grand children or their loved ones in Tamil Culture which is so so cute to hear that. Even the farmers and labours use to call their Masters (Landlords) as "Enjaami" as a respect giving. Likewise singer Arivu is called everytime as “Enjaami” by his Grandmother Valliammal affectionately in real life. That respected Grandmother Valliammal is shown in this ENJOY ENJAAMI official video song at the end … take a look… ROCK ENJOY ENJAAMI..
This world is not only for humans and for everyone, we have to protect and share what our elders and nature has given to us and respect them Thats the whole concept 🙏👍
The basic outline of song is the land or mother earth not only belongs to human it also belongs to animals and other creatures our ancestors has given it to us we must protect it but sadly we don't....that's why she is saying to come as one and enjoy preserving the culture and nature ❤
