Ennul Inikkum Inbame - என்னுள் இனிக்கும் இன்பமே - Amira Gill Amrit Ramnath Acapella Cover

Eid Mubarak to those celebrating!

Ever since I heard this song, I kept playing it on repeat, I’ve linked the original song and the stories behind it in my blog which you can find the description.

‘Ennul Inikkum Inbame’ speaks of the omniscient, omnipresent power that is felt.

On this song, the creators commented, "We were left with the overwhelming feeling that this album, although already so diverse and multifaceted in nature, needed just a little something more to amp it up. Ennul Inikkum Inbame is the product of this feeling."

"Inspired by Qawwali music, a huge source of inspiration and knowledge for us both, Ennul Inikkum Inbame is the first independent Qawwali-inspired Tamizh song, and we’re super thrilled to share it with you! Featuring some of our favourite musicians, Saurabh Joshi, Rohith Jayaraman, Sreerag, Sayee and Abinandan, this is the song that we found to be a fitting end to the album, and we really hope you feel the same."

"Abinandan David is the second guitarist on the EP. Rithu Vysakh is a strings player, composer, musician from Kerala. The violins in ‘Ennul Inikkum Inbame’ were played by Sayee Rakshith. MT Aditya Srinivasan is an incredibly diverse percussionist from Chennai. Saurabh Joshi is an accomplished multi-percussionist and sound engineer hailing from Dehradun."

‘Ennul Inikkum Inbame’ was mixed and mastered by Saurabh Joshi.

Tamil Lyrics

என்னுள் இனிக்கும் இன்பமே

என்னுள் சுவைக்கும் இன்பமே

உள் நின்றொளிர்வாய்

என்னுள் நிறைவாய்

உள்ளம் பரம்பொருலே

என்னுள் உறையும் உண்மையே

ஒலியும் நீ ஒளியும் நீ

அகமும் நீ புறமும் நீ

English Lyrics:

Ennul Inikkum Inbame
