Athisaya Ragam

I had heard the song " Athisaya Ragam"  from the movie Aboorva Rangangal after a  long time and these lines immediately caught my attention:

"Oru puram paarthaal mithilayin maithili
marupuram paarthaal kaviri maadhavi  
Mugam mattum paartthal nilavin edhiroli  
Muzhuvadhum parthal avaloru bairavi"

I was amazed at how Mr. Kannadasan had deftly described the female protagonist in these 4 lines. He has effectively portrayed Bhairavi's character in these 4 lines. I was bewildered by his use of words - eloquent and complementing. 

The shortest " About me" I have even come across :) 

He is indeed a man of powerful words. Rightly called as " Kaviarasu ( King of Poets)". He is one of the greatest poets of all times 
Here's the song:
