Ragam Karaharapriya

THalam aadhi

A comparatively less popular composition in ragam Kharaharapriya, this is written on Lord Krishna; about whom Sri. Papanasam Sivan has composed so many famous krithis. The lyrics:

 

pallavi

dayavillaiyA dayALO endan tAyum tandaiyum nIyallavO enmEl

 

Don’t you have mercy, are you not  my n mother and father, are  you not my body

 

anupallavi

jaya jaya nanda kumArA yamunA jala kallOla vihArA

jaya jagan mOhanAkArA jaya jaya muni jana mandArA innum

 

Hail, hail  son of Nanda, who plays in the waves  of water  of  Yamuna

Hail, he  who attracts  the universe,

Hail hail  the mandara of the saints

 

charaNam

viNNODum kaivalya nannADum vENDEn

 vEruLLa dEvEndra padaviyum vENDEn

kaNNA kaNNA enrun nAmamE sholvEn

 kaikoDuttAlum viDuttAlum engu shelvEn innum

 

I do not want  the position of salvation  in the sky,

I do not want  other  position   of devendra

I will tell the name  of “Oh Kanna”, Oh Kanna”

Whether  you give  or leave my hand  , where  will I go

 

Please enjoy listening to the legendary musician, Sri. Maharajapuram Santhanam's superb rendition of this composition.
