What is this Kolaveri Kolaveri di?
Is this a song or a Tamil poetry,
People are humming it everywhere I go,
And on their Facebook and twitter pages show.
Kolaveri in tamil means murderous rage or intent,
But this song is funny and does make sense.
The lyrics portray feelings of a heartbroken Indian boy,
A sad love story where the girl played with his heart like a toy.
Similar to the story of our India- West Indies Test,
Where cricket lovers were glued to TV screens for hours without rest.
Others at the stadium sitting at the edge of their seats,
Where Ashwin broke our hearts in two and stopped our heartbeats.
He hit the ball to long on, but didn't take the second run, if only he had done so, surely we would have won.
It was an anti-climatic end to a dramatic day of cricket, but we can't blame Ashwin alone, what about the other 7 wickets.
That's when I hum"Why this Kolaveri di?",
It fits this situation so very aptly.
Thanks to Dhanush for this Rustic "Tanglish" song,
Whenever you're watching such a cricket match don't forget to hum " Kolaveri di " along.
