Mokshamu galadha
By
Saint Thyagaraja
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
Raga Saramathi
Thala Aadi
Pallavi
Mokshamu galadha , bhuvilo,
Jeevan mukthuluguni varaluku
Anupallavi
Sakshathkara sad bhakthi,
Sangitha Jnana viheenaluku
Charanam
Pranana samyoga valla,
Pranava nadamu saptha swaramulai baraga,
Veena vadana loludou siva mano
Vidha merugaru , Thyagaraja Vinutha.
English Translation
Pallavi
Is salvation available in this world only,
For realized and liberated souls?
Anupallavi
Is it available to those drenched in true devotion,
But do not have knowledge of music?
Charanam
Is it available to those who are not able in their mind,
To see Lord Shiva , who is deeply interested in the notes of Veena,
In which the sound “Om”, due to its merging with soul,
Comes out as the seven notes?
Very well explained about true devotion and that is what matters....
