Haavu-mungoosi haaDu

When we were kids, there were a few songs which were so gripping everytime we used to hear them on radio. Be it the content, the narration, it was as if things were happening right in front of you.

There are a few which come to mind. When Manu and me were chatting, we were talking about this havu-mungoosi song from the movie 'Rama Lakshmana'. I couldn't find the song nor its lyrics anywhere on the net. Courtesy Manu, Nagashree and their mother, here is the entire song:
"KeLiddu suLLaga bahudu , nODiddu suLLaga bahudu
nidhanisi yochisidaga nijavu thiLivudu

dooradallondu kaadittu, kaadali ondu mane ittu
mungusiyondu allittu, maneyanu kavalu kaytittu
aa maneyodathi gangamma, thottilalavaLa kandamma
mungusiyallade berenu maguvina aatake illamma.....

MungusiyoDane preethiyali, kandana jothege snehadali
baaLuthaliddaLu Gangamma, Mundenaayithu keLamma..

maneyali neeru mugidiralu, hoLeya kadege horatiralu,
mungusiyannu koogidaLu,
maneyali bere yarulla...maguvina jothege kaavaliru..horagaDe yellu hogadiru..

gangeyu hoLege horataga beliyallidda kari naga
sara sara hariyithu rabhasadali maneyanu serithu nimishadali

Mungusi noDithu haavannu, thottila baLige baruvudanu
KaaLaga naDeyithu roshadali , sothitu haavu jaGaLadali
Mungusi geluvina harushadali, haavina praaNava heerithu
Baayali rakthavu suridithu....

Gangeyu neeranu tharuthiralu,kai baLe naadava keLisalu
Mungusi baagila baLi baralu, baayali rakthada kale iralu...
Bechchutha gangeyu noDidaLu, Maguvanu kondide idu yendu
Mungusiyannu chachidaLu, aLutha oLage OdidaLu

thottila kandanu nagutittu, neladali haavu sattittu
duDukida buddige baliyagi mungusi katheyu mugidittu.........."

Similar songs are 'keLade nimageega dooradalli yaro', 'kannaDa naaDina veerara maNiya'.....

Any other ones?

One song that never ceases to thrill me is "Yaaru Ariyaru Ninna Bhuja Balada Parakrama" from "Babruvahana". Sheer brilliance!
