The Art of 'Chicken Gunya' Lyrics - Acharya Atreya

After successful two parts (Part1 , Part2) on the chandra 'ghost', I am continuing my enriching journey of pursuing greatest lyrics of all time. This article concentrates on one such great lyricist.

Manasu gathi inthe

manishi bratuku inthe

manasunna manishiki

sukham ledanthe

Who can ignore those manasu truths? His lyrics makes a powerful everlasting impact on hearts of his fans. He always used simple yet elegant, small but powerful words. All his words are 'vadukalo vunna simple maatalu'. He is none other than 'Acharya' AAtreya - Popularly known by name 'manasu kavi'. Rayaka niramtalani rasi prekshakulani edpistarani prateeti. (They say he makes producers cry by not writing and make the audience cry by writing).

Read his wiki, idlebrain, cine articles to know more about his story.

Atreya Marks on Telugu Lyrics:

Prema ledani premincharadani
sakchyame neevani nannu nenu chaatani
ooo priya joharulu - Abhinandana

Mudda banthi poovulo Mooga Kalla voosulu
Venaka Janama Basalu endariki telusulee

- Mooga Manasulu

Manasu mooganidi maatalu ranidi mamata okate adi nerchinadi

Ee teega poovuno ee komma lo veechano

- Maro Charitra

Neevu leka veena palukalennannadi neevu leka radha niluva lenannadi

chitapata chinukulu padutu vunte chelikaade sarasana vunte -

paccha gaddi koseti paduchu pilla

Ettago vunnado oolammi eteto avutundo chinnammi

The Art of Chicken Gunya Lyrics - Part II

Update on our greatadhi great Telugu lyricist 'chandra ghost'

"mokkajonna thotalo kukkalochayi,
kothimeera thotalo kothulocchayi…"

- From subhash chandra bose film penned by lyridestructist chandra bose.

Chandra Bose gaaru,

I know people loves simple and catchy lyrics so that they can easily remember them but not these kind of meaningless lyrics. These kind of stupid lyrics downgrades kammatanam in Telugu poetry. Poetry is not just about playing with words but also giving a life to the words when read as a complete sentence. When the millions of people hears the song, their heart should immerse with the aatma of the song.

I believe you have at least some talent in you. I like particularly two songs written by you

cheekatitho veluge cheppenu nenunnani
ootamitho gulepe cheppenu nenunnani

- Nenunnanu

manchu kondallona chandrama

- Taj Mahal

Hope you write such good peotry in future. Please put your talent in right shores.
