By
Saint Thyagaraja
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
Ragam –Sarasangi
Thalam-Desadhi
Pallavi
Menu choosi mosha
pogave manasaa,
Lonee jada leelagu kadhaa
Pallavi
Oh mind do not get deceived by exterior body,
For what is
inside it , is it not like this?
Anupallavi
Heenamaina mala
Moothra raktha mula,
Kiravanchu mayaa mayamaina chana
Anupallavi
Is not it the
place where the very debasing,
Stool, urine and blood
are situated, though by
illusion she is a girl,
Charanam
Kanulanediyamba
kolache thakuchi,
Chanulu anedi girula chiramulinchi,
Panulu chethurada THyagaraja nuthani,
Bhaga neevu
Bhajana chesa kommi sthreela.
Charanam
After hitting you with their arrow llike eyes,
Using their
mountain like breasts,
They do work to attract you, it seems,
And so why do you not
sing about him,
Who is being
praised by Thyagaraja.
