Nava Graha Krithis - IX [Kethu]
Mahasuram Kethum
By Muthuswami Deekshithar
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Raga Shanumuga Priya
Thalam Roopakam

Pallavi

Mahasuram Kethumaham bhajami Chaya Graha varam

Anupallavi

Maha vichithra makuta dharam Mangala vasthradhi daram,
Nara peeta sthitham sukham nava graham yutham sakham.

Charanam

Kethum krishnavan manthrinam krodha nidhi jaiminam,
Kuluthadhi bhakshanam kona dwaja pathakinam,
Guru Guha chamara bharanam guna dosha jithabharanm,
Grahaanaadhi karya karanam, Grahapa savya sancharinam

English Translation

Pallavi

I pray that great Asura Kethu who is the blessed shadow planet

Anupallavi

He wears a peculiar crown and auspicious dress,
He sits on the base of a human form and is friendly to the nine planets.

Charanam

He who is pleased by Krinavan manthra
And is the treasure of anger belonging to the clan of Jaimini,
He eats food of grain and has a triangle in his flag,
He wears the fan of Guru Guha as ornament
And can make out difference between good and bad,
He is the cause of eclipses and moves in counter clock wise direction.
