Here is an amazing rendition of Maadu Meikum Kanne by Smt. Aruna Sairam. Her voice is so strong and unique it is really exhilarating to hear her. She sings the song with so much affection which makes the song very special and appealing.
This song is a dialog between Lord Krishna as a child and his mother Yasodha. Krishna wants to go out to play and rear the cattle while Yasodha tries to stop him giving reasons such as ‘it is a very sunny day, Little Krishna might be attacked by wild animals and thieves and so on.' Yasodha, the loving mother also attempts to lure Baby Krishna with the things he likes. But Little Krishna doesn’t heed to her request and instead, answers all her worries very smartly and finally he gets to go out to play.

*Maadu Meikum Kanne Lyrics*
Maadu meikum kanne nee poga vendam sonnen
Kaaichina paalu tharen karkandu cheeni tharen
Kai niraya vennai tharen veiyyilile poga vendam
Maadu meikum kanne nee poga vendam sonnen
kaichina paalum vendam karkandu cheeni vendam
Ullasamai maadu meithu oru nodiyil thirumbiduven
Poga vendum thaye thadai solladhe neeye
Yamuna nadhi karayil eppozhudum kalvar bhayam
kalvar vandu unai adithal kalangiduvai kanmaniye
Maadu meikum kanne nee poga vendam sonnen
Kalvanukkor kalvanundo kandadhundo sollum amma
Kalvar vandhu yenai adithal kanda thundam seididuven
Poga vendum thaye thadai sollade neeye
Govardhana giriyil ghoramana mrigangal undu
karadi puli yai kandal kalangiduvai kanmaniye
Maadu meikum kanne nee poga vendam sonnen
Kaatu mrigangal ellam ennai kandal odi varum
Kootamkootamaga vandal vettai aadi jaithiduven
Poga vendum thaye thadai sollade neeye
Pasamulla nanda gopar baalan enge endru kettal
Ennavenru solliduven ada ennudaya kanmaniye
Maadu meikum kanne nee poga vendam sonnen
Baalrudan veedhiyile pandhaduran endru sollen
Thedi nee varugaiyile odi vandu nindriduven
Poga vendum thaye thadai solladhe neeye
