[Sudarshan C R]

[tscii:28b3d34edf]Kannada literature became wealthy by the valuable contributions from ‘Haridasa’s like Purandaradasa, Kanakadasa, Kamalesha Vittaladasa, Vadiraja, Mahipathidasa and many others. They have selected Carnatic music to teach/guide common people and divert their attention towards almighty god. They composed their song lyrics with simple words, easy to understand and rendered them through music with relevant Raga. This type of tradition was started by Shri Purandaradasa who is also called as Founder of Carnatic music.
Though exact words are not available in English for Kannada words, I am trying to provide equivalent/relevant words which gives similar/nearest meaning to the lyric.

Hello Rajraj,

There is a prelude (ugAbhoga) to the lyric ‘yamanelli kANeMdu keLabEDa’ which follows next to this description. The same prelude was sung by MLV before singing ‘innu dayabArade dAsana mEle’
(www.kannadaaudio.com/Songs/Classical/home/MLV-1.php)

The prelude lyric follows:

Aneyu karedare AdimUla baMdaMte,
ajAmiLanu karedare nArAyaNa baMdaMte,
aDaviyalli dhRuvarAya karedare vAsudEva baMdaMte,
saBeyalli draupati karedare shrIkRuShNa baMdaMte,
ninna dAsara dAsanu nA karedare enna pAlisabEku puraMdara viThala
Meaning of the song lyric:

When gajendra called he came like AdimUla(Supreme power)
(Remember the episode of gajendra moksha-elephant & crocodile)
When ajAmiLa called he came like Narayana
Dhruva called him in forest he came as Vasudeva
When Draupadi called him in Assembly, came like Shrikrishna
I am a slave of your servants, calling you to protect me purandara vittala

Meaning of the song ‘yamanelli kANeneMdu’:

Don’t say (or ask) Yama (god of death) is not to be seen
Sreerama himself is Yama, no doubt about that

Vibheeshana – Rama,Ravana – Yama
Arjuna - Friend, Dhuryodhana – Enemy
Prahlada - Hari, Hiranyaka - Rope (It is huriyada or pAsha of Yama – not kuri which means sheep)
Ugrasena – servant, kamsa – enemy
Have faith/believe in ShriKrishna as early as possible
Possessing Conch (kambu) and Wheel(Sudarshana) Shri purandara vittala
[/tscii:28b3d34edf]

[Sudarshan C R]

Missing description:

Vibheeshana, Arjuna, Prahlada, and Ugrasena have faith and
believed him, so he came to their resque as Rama, Friend, Hari and
Servant respectively.
But Ravana, Dhuryodhana, Hiranyaksha (Hiranyaka) and Kamsa
did't believe him, so he became Yama, Enemy, Huri (Pasha of Yama)
and enemy respectively.

[tscii:1a1d091918]Here is another lyric by Shri Purandara dasaru which expresses the supreme reality about the people who are in the habit of back biting.

Composer: Purandara dasaru
Raga: Mohana


AcAravillada nAlige ninna nIca buddiya biDu nAlige

Listen to this song here:

http://www.udbhava.com/udbhava/home.jsp
Goto search and type ‘aacharavillada’
You will find two options.

1. By Dr. Rajkumar(devotional)
2. By S Janaki from the film ‘Upasane’.

The last stranza is used as film song which is sung
By S Janaki for the film ‘Upasane’. Tune by Vijayabhaskar.


Another link: By Vidyabhushana
http://www.kannadaaudio.com/Songs/Devotional/home/HaridasaNamana.php

Meaning of the song ‘acharavillada nalige’:

Here‘nAlige’means 'tongue' which causes ‘spoken words’

Tongue which is not having right behavior (good conduct)
Leave your wicked thinking
Always stretching out to blame others without any reason

Hey tongue, why don’t you call Shri Hari (siri-lakshmi
pati-husband) in the early morning after got up?

Do call him continuously one who capable of removing all
Sins and father of Manmatha

(Patita pAvana-one who capable of removing all sins
Ratipati-Manmatha, janaka–father
Satata-continuous, nuDi-tell/remember)


Request you tongue don’t make back biting
Chant the name of Shri Rama who is the lord of universe
(rUDi-custome/tradition (universe), oDeya-Lord)

Chant the name of shri hari and sing hymns of shri Vishnu (nara hari) always remember the lotus feet of shri purandhara vithala [/tscii:1a1d091918]

[tscii:a10761b89a]Today is Shri Kanakadasa jayanthi.
Here is one famous song written by Shri Kanakadasaru, which is picturised in the film ‘Bhakta Kanakadasa’, Dr. Rajkumar has acted as Kanakadasa. ShrI M Venkataraju has given melodius tune and sung by Shri P B Srinivas.
In the story, Kanaka reached Udupi after hearing the news
of lord Krishna in Udupi, he was not allowed to take the glimpse of
deity of lord Krishna in the temple instead he is beaten up at the
rear end of the temple. The diety in the temple turns towards him and opens a window through the wall to enable him to have darshan. This window is still in existence and now called ‘Kanakana kindi’.

The lyric goes like this.

Raga: aThANa
tALa: aTTatALa
BAgilanu teredu sEveyanu kODo hariye

Wishing all friends a happy New Year 2009.
Here is a song composed by Shri Purandaradasaru, which evokes our intelligence and put us in a dilemma of true or false about the statements narrated in the song. This song is taken from the film ‘Amma’ of Padmini pictures, having ups and downs of drama
actors and actresses during that period. Shri B R Panthulu was in a leading role of an actor/master in a drama company. Tune by Shri T G Lingappa and Shri M Balamuralikrishna sing this song while showing the title cards of the movie on the screen.

The lyric follows:
Raga: sAvEri
TALa: aTTatAla

gAyana: shrI bAlamuraLikRuShNa
saMgIta: Ti ji liMgappa
sAhitya: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

The meaning of the song:

Finest vedic verse is that success (victory) will be for moral law (dharma)
You will have to make tactics/plans (taMtra) by understanding inner meaning (marma)

You will have to feed them with feasting food (shadrasa – six tastes viz., Salt, Sour, Sweet,
Bitter, Pungent, Astringent) who gives you poison/troubles you
You have to protect/nurture (pOShisu) him who is having enimity (dvESha) with you
You have to bless (harasu) the person who spoils you with lies (husiyaaDi)
Your son should be named with the person’s name that deceives you

You have to praise/eulogize them who beats/troubles (baDiyuvara) you
You have to invite them who are jealous/envy of you
To get happiness, salute and praise Pundarikaaksha Shri Purandara vittala.

One more song by Shri Purandaradasaru, which narrates the conduct of bad/sinful people in the society.

Lyric goes like this:

rAga: mOhana
tALa: aTTatALa
racane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

jAliya maradaMte dhareyoLu durjanaru /pa/
mUlAgra pariyaMta muLLu kUDippaMte /anupa/

bisilalli baLali baMdavarige neraLilla
hasidu baMdavarige haNNu illa
kusuma vAsaneyilla kUDalu sthaLavilla
rasadalli svAdavu viShadaMte irutiha /1/

UrahaMdige ShaDrasAnnavanikkalu
nAruva durgaMdha biDaballude
GOrapApige tatva j~jAnava pELalu
krUra karmava biTTu sujananAguvane /2/

tanniMda upakAra toTakAdaru illa
binnANada mAtige koneyilla
annake sErida kunni mAnavaraMte
innivara kAryavu puraMdaraviThThala /3/

Meaning of the song:

Bad/sinful people are like jaliya mara on the earth (dhareyoLu).
having only thorns (like needle) from top to bottom (mUlAgra pariyaMta)
(Jaliya mara - is a thorny plant with tiny leaves that is used to get gum and also used for medicinal purpose. In Sanskrit-Babbula, botonical name is Acacia Arabica (Nilotica)

gives no shelter for people in search of shade in sunshine (bisilali)
gives no fruits for people with hungry
no fragrance of flowers and no place to sit (kUDalu sthaLavilla)
taste of its juice (leaves) is like poison/bitter

even if you treat village pigs with good/tasty food
they cannot avoid going to stinking places
if you teach philosophy (tatva j~janava) to wicked man (ghorapApi)
he will not become gentleman leaving his cruelty

Leave aside a small help from them (wicked men)
There is no end for their bluff (bragging)
Purandara vittala, their work/duty is of no use except eating food
like mean fellows (kunni mAnavaraMte)

Meaning of the song:

where have you seen (my) Ranga with a flute (piLLaMgOvi)
where did you saw chelva (beautiful) Krishna

clever people say they have not seen him anywhere

nuck and corners of palace belongs Nandagopa
in the group of boys of Gokula(gOpabAla)
with attractive beautiful women
in the herd of beautiful cows and calves

Gurus says he is there in sumangala Yoga
He is available in the yaaga's done according to
the rules of aagama shaastra
He is there with Lakshmi in luxury (bhOga)
and in the melodeous raga sung by Bhagavathas

In and out of this universe
He is seated in the chariot of Arjuna,
the son of Lord Indra (KecharEndra)
He is there with whom calling Madhava, Keshava, without shyness
At the edge (agradali) of the eyes (lOchana) of purandara vithala of vIcukoMDa (vIcu - wave or tide, koMDa - Tank = kshIrasAgara)

[tscii:97573ca4bb]Here is one popular song, (said to be) written by Guru Shri Raghavendra Thirtharu,
who is popularly known as Mantralaya Prabhu. This song is picturised in two kannada movies.
Mantralaya Mahatme (Story of Shri Rahavendra's life history) and also in the film 'Eradu Kanasu' (Your eyes become wet while viewing this song - beautifully rendered by S Janaki - Kalpana on the screen). 2nd stranza is not included in both the films.
Shri Rajan-Nagendra has provided the melodious tune to both the films.

Lyric goes here:

Meaning of the song:

Govinda, bless me today, show your
secred (lotus=araviMda) feet (pAda), Mukunda

Son (kaMda) of Nandagopa with beautiful (suMdara) face (vadana)
Indira ramana (Husband of Lakshmi) who saved mountain Mandara

Suffered by entangled (siluki) transient life
Not finding path, became weak in this world
Treat me like a child with out counting my sins/mistakes
Father, protect me Krishna, father of Manmatha (kandarpajanaka)

I became coward (hEDi) with foolishness (mUDhatanadi)
Hari I did not perform determined (dhRuDha) devotion (bhakuti)
I did not see; remember your greatness (mahime)
I pray you Krishna the creator (gADikAra)

My life became a burden (balu bhAra) on this earth (dhAruNi)
Selected the wrong way, joined with bad men (kujana)
There is nobody to protect me (kAyuvarilla)
Submitted (sAride) to you all (ninagayya)
Hari, Lord Venugopala rescue me

Meaning of the song:

I could not see this much scintillating shine (sobagu) in any other gods
except for Gopala, who is popular among gopalas (of Dwaraka-gopijanapriya)

If you see kingship (doreyatana), he is Lord of mother earth (dharaNI dEvi)
If you see wealth (siritana), he is husband of Shreelakshmi
If you see elderlyness (hiriyatana), born out of lotus (Brahma-sarasijOdbhava)
If you see teaching (guruvutana), mentor of whole world.

If you see sacredness (pAvanatva), father of immortal water (amaragaMgAjanaka)
If you see divinity (dEvatva), master of all gods (divijaroDEya)
If you see elegance (lavaNyadali), loved by all mankind (lOkamOhakanayya)
If you see bravery (dhairyadi), he is killer (asurAMtaka) of demons

garuDadEva who travels like horse (turaga) in the sky
Lord who laid/sleep (shayana) on softbed (paryaMka) of Shesha
none other than PuraMdara vittala who is visible through Vedas (nigamagOcara)
who else will have this fortune (bhAgya)

Here is a song from Shri Purandaradasaru which narrates that each one of us should learn from a good 'TEACHER'-guru.

Meaning of the song:

Salvation is not so easy to get
until you become a slave of a Mentor/Master

no use of reading books of knowledge
all the devotion has become a waste

what is the use of becoming scholor by reading several books (Six shaastras)
what is the use by reading several(mUrAru) holy books
Not making of friendship with good/worthy men
no use of showing off (mere) like a braveman(dhIra)

what is the use of wearing (dharisu) garland around the neck (koraLu)
what is the use of counting rosary (japamaNi) with fingers (karadoLu)
No use of run around (tirugidarEnu) like a fool (maruLa) with smear(lEpa) of ash on the body(sharIra)

No use of refusing the friendship of women
No use of penalising one's own body
Until you remember Shri Purandaravittala
who is father of love (manmatha-mAranayya)
without forgetting him.

when God (hari) gave you sufficient (koTTa kAlakke),
(you have) not utilised it properly(uNalilla)
when God (hari) stops giving (koDada kAlakke)

you (prANi) became a miser even to have/buy little salt(uppillade)
and ate (uMDeyallo) food without salt

You (prANi) ate (tiMdello) corns (guggariyannava)
(guggari = fried Bengalgrams)
when you had enough of ghee (tuppa) and rice (huggiyu)
You searched for a small coin (buggeya hoykoMDu)
when all your wealth (heggaLada bhAgya)
was vanishing (pOpAga) in a moment(GaLigEli)

when relatives (neMTariShTaru) were waiting (kuLitire)
in front (muMde) of your house (mane)
you gave (ADideyallo) false excuses (kuMTa suddi)
when servants of Yama (kaMTaka yamanru) started
dragging (kuMThisutteLevAga) you
Hey poor man (prANi), you are left with only relative (naMTA)
that is Shri puraMdaraviThThala

If I ask, it was meant (naivEdya) for God Krishna
He says, your home God (iShTadEvaru) is satisfied (tRuptanAda) already Pure (accha) milk-curd (pAlmosaru) and newly prepared butter-milk (majjige) mixed together and drinks all of them

Here is a song composed by Shri Kanakadasaru on Shree Krishna. Mother Yashoda requesting the neighbours to pardon the mischiefs done by Krishna.

Lyric goes here:

rAga: shaMkarAbharaNa
tALa: Eka
racane: shrI kanakadAsaru

iMdu sairisiri shrIkRuShNana tappa
muMdake nimma manege bAranamma

maguvu ballude iShTu beNNeya kaddare
bigiyabahude shrIcaraNavanu
agaNita mahimana aMjisalEkamma
bageyabArade nimma makkaLaMte /1/

hasu maguvanu kaMDu muddisalollade
pusiga kaLLaneMdu kaTTuviri
vasudheyoLage nAnobbaLe paDedene nimma
hasumaguveMdu bhAvisabArade /2/

eShTO bAriyu nA bEDaveMdaru kELa
duShTa makkaLa kUDa oDanATava
kaTTida neluvina beNNeyanIvenu
biTTu kaLuhiramma AdikEshavana /3/

Meaning of the song:

Tolerate (sairisiri) the mistake (tappu)
of Shri Krishna (shrI kRiShNana) just for today (iMdu)
He won't come (bAranamma) to your (nimma)
houses (manege) here afterwards (muMdake)

Small kid (maguvu) what he knows (ballude),
just for taking (kaddare) a piece (iShTu) of butter (beNNeya)
is it fair to bind (bigiyabahude) His legs (shrI caraNavanu)
why do you scare/threaten(aMjisalEkamma) Him (agaNita mahimana)
(agaNita mahima = who has done inumerable miracles)
Why don't you treat (bageyabArade)
Him as your (nimma) child (makkaLaMte)

instead (ollade) of treating with love (muddisa)
as a small kid (hasu maguvanu kaMDu)
calling him as lier (pUsiga), thief (kaLLaneMdu)
and bind (kaTTuviri) Him
only myself (nAnobbaLe) is lucky enough to have (paDedene)
Him on this earth (vasudheyoLage)
why don't you treat (bhAvisabArade) Him
as your (nimma) little kid (hasu maguveMdu)

I (nA) also advice Him so many times (eShTo bAriyu)
not (bEDaveMdaru) to join (kUDa oDAnATava) with
naughty kids (duShTa makkaLa), but He does't listen to me (kEla)
I will give (Evenu) all the butter (beNNeya)
I have with me in neluvu (kaTTida neluvina)
(neluvu = basket made of rope hung on to a cross beam to keep pots filled with milk/curd/butter)
Please release (biTTu) and send (kaLuhiramma) our Adikeshava

One RICH-VOICED Kuyil (Kokila / Cuckoo) ...

--- SLEEPING within KANNADA-CAGE. !



Yes. The entire Sangeetha-world including even the Kannada Song lovers have not utilized adequately--

--- this Kuyil Ms. Sangeetha Swaminathan --

-- GOD-GIVEN GIFT for Humanity

Endowed with such an abundantly rich GNB Standard BRIGHA SAAREERAM (Very very rare now-a-days)--

--we the Rasikas are at a GREAT LOSS-- by keeping such an UNIQUE TREASURE practically UNDER-UTILIZED or almost UNUTILIZED during the present days.

For example the below-mentioned Purandara dasa's Keerthana was introduced and popularised to the Music world by GNB.

We find this Kuyil is rendering the same feast to us-- with more ANALYTICAL NUANCES--

--- by means of apt and profound Gamakas and Brighas--

--exhibiting the True shape of Durga Raga by well defining with a Dividing line to differentiate from its nearest and Similar Raga : SUDDHA-SAAVERI


DHARMA-SRAVANA - Ragam: DURGA

http://old.musicindiaonline.com/p/x/hqb2Cv_vgS.As1NMvHdW/


And another popular Keerthana of Purandara-dasa in SUDDHA-DHANYASI too by this Great Singer--

--how Unique, MELLIFLUOUS and Rich by Classical Values.!.

Well-differentiating from its nearest Raga: "UDHAYA RAVI-CHANDRIKA".!!!

--- Yes . A Clean SUDDHA-DHANYASI -- Soulfully we enjoy.! Is it Not.?

She needs some more training to pronounce Kannada words perfectly


I see. Will you please quote those specifically so that Rasikas will not get misguided by wrong pronunciation by just one Sangeetha Vidwamsini.

And I too am able to identify one such of her wrong in Sahithya. While the correct wordings must be as below – as you have rightly presented---

---and all other Vidwans, (For example GNB, Hyderabad Brothers, Priya Sisters) are singing correctly---



sRuShTiyoLu adhamage puraMdara viThThalana
muTTi bhajipeneMba abhilAShe Etake


---this Musician Ms SANGEETHA SWAMINATHAN only is singing as---

--- “Srushtiyolhu adhama Purandara Vittala” which renders perverted sense---

--that the glorious Purandara Vittala is attributed as “ADHAMA”



karmAnuShTAnava esagadiruva
durmatigEtake brAhmaNa janma


I carefully observed that all the Vidwans including GNB and Ms Sangeetha Swaminathan are pronouncing as --- NESAGADIRUVA only,

--while you have written as ESAGADIRUVA.

Which one is correct.? What is the meaning please-- as NESAGADIRUVA.?

Or is the letter N is just a SANDHI-LETTER.?

Or is it just a SAMASTHA-PADAM to be clubbed with the previous word.?

Please clarify.



gArdhaba rOdana sahisalEtake shvAnage

why (Etake) should the dog (shvAna) bear (sahisalEtake) the crying (rOdana) of Donkey (gArdhaba)


While the varied senses of other analogues, followed by repeated ETAKE--- I am able to understand

---this One Upamana of Donkey and Dog, I am unable to catch the sense how does it fit in.




what is the use (Etake) of listening (shravaNa) to the
religious episodes (dharma) for an idiot (mUrKage)


I think the Word SHRAVANA means HEARING and NOT as “Listening”. Am I correct.?

Thanking You With Best Wishes,
Sudhaama
.

[tscii:824924997d]Dear Sudhaama

---this Musician Ms SANGEETHA SWAMINATHAN only is singing as---

--- “Srushtiyolhu adhama Purandara Vittala” which renders perverted sense---

--that the glorious Purandara Vittala is attributed as “ADHAMA”

I also observed the same – which is a costly mistake of pronounsing the word!!!

esagu = perform, do
esagadiruva (esagade+iruva) - not performing - not done properly
nesagadiruva (here ‘n’ can be a joining letter-like ‘lEsanesagadiruva-which means ‘could not be done good things (lEsu)’
in that case ‘ karmAnuShTAnavanesagadiruva’ should be one word which is very long, while singing some people has to divide into
‘karmAnuShTAnava esagadiruva’ but meaning remains same.
gArdabha rOdana sahisalEtake shvAnage- Etake is used with sahisu-which means bear. sahislEtake-why should bear?
It is the same ‘upamana’ as ‘veena gAna to kONage’
Basically ‘hearing –listening’ both are the same as ‘Alisuvudu-kELisikoLLuvudu’ in kannada.
As I mentioned in the beginning of the string there are no correct/perfect words available in English for some kannada words.

-- GOD-GIVEN GIFT for Humanity

Endowed with such an abundantly rich GNB Standard BRIGHA SAAREERAM (Very very rare now-a-days)--

--we the Rasikas are at a GREAT LOSS-- by keeping such an UNIQUE TREASURE practically UNDER-UTILIZED or almost UNUTILIZED during the present days.............

And another popular Keerthana of Purandara-dasa in SUDDHA-DHANYASI too by this Great Singer--

--how Unique, MELLIFLUOUS and Rich by Classical Values.!.

Well-differentiating from its nearest Raga: "UDHAYA RAVI-CHANDRIKA".!!!

[Sudarshan C R]

[tscii:5d540757f0]Hello Sudhaama,

Here is the meaning of the song ‘narAyaNa ninna nAmada smaraNeya’ composed by Shri Purandaradasaru. Though Mr. Lakshman has given the lyrics of 7 charanas (Which needs some corrections), singers have selected only 2-3 charanas for their
concert.

Meaning follows here:

O God Narayana, make me to chant (smaraNeya) the sweet essence (sArAmRuta)
of your (ninna) name (nAmada) on my toungue (nAligege barali)

Relieve (biTToDi hOgO hAMge) me (nA) of all (balu) my sins (pApa) which I have committed (mADida) while sitting (kUDuvAgali), standing/talking (niMtADuvAgali),
singing (hADuvAgali), running/walking (haridADuvAgali), recreating (KODi vinOdadi)

Whether I am in the village (UroLagirali) or out (horagirali) of village (Urige), let all the work (kAraNArthaMgaLella) be pending (kAdirali), Narayana (vArija nAbha-husband of Lakshmi) Krishna (narasArathi-who led the chariot of Arjuna), let me chant your name now and then (sArisArige), without any boredom (bEsaradAMge)

Whether I am hungry (hasididdAgali) or without hungry (hasivilladAgali)
being upset (kasivisiyirali) or in happy mood (haruShavirali)
vasudEvAtmaka (son of Vasudeva) shishupAlakShaya (who killed Shishupala)
asurAMtaka (who killed all demons) let me chant your (ninna) name (hesaru) without forgetting (mareyadAMge)

Whether I am in hardship (kaShTadallirali) or in excellent position (utkRuShTadallirali) or in the state of senseless (eShTadarU matigeTTirali)
let me chant the eight letter (aShTAkShara) sacred word (mahAmaMtrava) of Krishna Krishna, the learned people (shiShTaru) are saying (pELuva)

Whether in dreams (kanasinoLAgali) or perturbed (kaLavaLakAgali)
or in the state of calm (manasugoTTirali) or in bad temper (munidirali)
Sree Rama (janakajApati - husband of Sita who born to Janaka maharaja) make me to remember (nenesikoLLo hAMge) your (ninna) lotus (kamalavanu) feet (caraNa) atleast once (omme) in my mind (manasinoLage)

Whether in fever (jvara baMdAgali), or cold (caLi baMdAgali)
or shivering (naDuguvAgali) again and again (maraLi maraLi)
HarinArAyaNa, remover (nivAraNaneMdu) of all agonies (durita)
make me remember (smaraNe) you (ninna) day (hagalu) and night (iruLu) without forgetting (mareyadAMge)

Let me place (oLagirisi) your (ninna) thousand (sAsira) names (nAmava)
always (saMtata) in my heart (aMtaraMgada) Hari Purandaravittala,
make me think (ciMtiso hAMge) of you at the last moments (aMtya kAladali)

Narayana (vArija nAbha-husband of Lakshmi)



Thanks My dear Sudarshan,

Varija-Nabha... means PADMA-NABHA... Is It Not.?

So to mean the One who holds a Lotus on his Naabhi (Navel).?

.

[Sudarshan C R]

[tscii:f4408ce67f]You are right Sudhaama! Actually vArija nAbha- is a word from Sanskrit language which gives the meaning of :
vAri - water/ocean, ja – born, nAbha - owner/king (Naabhi – Navel as you said)
This can be interpreted as vArija- born from the water - that means Lakshmi who born during Samudramanthan- nAbha is owner -Mahavishnu[/tscii:f4408ce67f]

[Sudarshan C R]

Today is Shri Kanakadasa jayanthi.
Here is a song composed by Shri Kanakadasaru, which narrates that this human life is very short and it is not at all permanent. Before it ends, do some good work/things and make way for salvation/emacnipation.
There is a version of Shri Purandaradasaru also with the same meaning. (Sung by Shri C Aswath)

Lyrics follow:

rAga: kAMbOdi

[Sudarshan C R]

[tscii:3c62dbbb9b]Here is a song on Shri Krishna’s childhood by Shri Vyasathirtharu. There is a dispute about the author of the lyric. Some scholars are of the opinion that it is written by Shri Vyasathirtharu and some says it is Shri Purandaradasaru. The lyric given here with signature ‘balakrishnayya’ is of Shri Vyasathirtharu.
Only Shri Vidyabhushana has sung this song in the Album ‘MUDDURANGA’.All others have sung the version of ‘purandara vittala’ of Shri Purandaradasaru.

Otherwise curds (mosaru) will be a waste (oDedare) and
there won’t (bAradu) be butter (beNNe) for you Ranga

Dear friends:

I am glad that I found this thread!
I have heard many songs of Purandara Dasa by the great Sri. BMK, in his melodious voice. I understand a few words since I know Tamil and Telugu
but it will be wonderful to know the full meaning of the beautiful compositions.

I hope some one can give me the lyrics and meaning of the following two songs.
(pardon me if the spelling is not correct)

"yarenu maduvaru"
"ninna magani galli "

thanks

Dear Mr. Jeeyar

Thanks for taking time to post the wonderful lyrics for the two songs.

I did't expect a reply so soon.
I look forward to the meanings also.

Of course , I enjoyed the songs with the lyrics; but nothing can be
compared to knowing the full meaning and enjoying the bakthi rasam fully !

Shri Purandaradasaru had enormous knowledge of Kannada language.
He knows to play with the words having perfect meaning while writing lyrics.
Example: In the first song ‘ArEnu mADuvaru’
He uses ‘Aru’ is number Six in Kannada, but instead of ‘yAru’ (means-who)
Like wise ‘AriMda’ instead of ‘yAriMda’ (means by whom)
Hasivaritu – too hungry (hungry person knows the agony)
rasadAleya kabbu – Well grown Sugarcane
melaleMdu – to eat/chew
manavaritu naDeyada – not understaning a person properly
naDevudake kAlilla - though legs are there, there is no strength to walk

In the song ‘ninna magana gALi’

He uses gALi means Air; Wind (wild), evil spirit (devva in kannada, which gives unwanted hardships)
Ganavamma – enormous or too much
kAlu taMdu – brought his legs (how can it be?) means child’s walking
kElinoLage – into the huge brass/copper vessel
kollahOdare – to hit a person until he dies
tuLiyalIta – steps/walk onto the streets/lanes
kEri basava – A bull which carrys idol of God/Godess of the village during fairs/jaatra
This bull is let free to run around in the village, when ever it stands infront of a house, they should feed it.

Meaning of the song “ArEnu mADuvaru”:

who (Aru) can do (mADuvaru) what (Enu)?
what can happen by whom (AriMdalEnahudu)?
effect of one's deeds in previous birth (pUrvajanmada karma)
will run after(vidhi benna biDadu) him/her in present life

There is no body to offer food (uNabaDisuvavarilla) though
there are relatives (neMTaru) in the city/village (Urella)
when I go (hOdare) to reservoir (kere) with thirst (bAyAri),
it was dry/barren (battitu)
Krishna, seeing me at a distance (dUradalli nODi), in-laws
(tAyi sOdarareMdu - brothers of a mother)
will laugh (nagutAre) at me, if I go (hOdare) there with hopes (hAraisi)

If I go (hOdare) to relatives (neMTara) house (manage)
with hungry (hasidu) to get food (uNalikke)
there is no body (kANe) who can understand my agony (hasivaritu)
and protect (salahuvara) me
If I go (hOdare) to fields to eat/have (melaleMdu) juicy (rasadALe)
sungarcane (kabbu)
Krishna, It tastes (bAyige-tOrutide) me like a poison (viShavAgi)

Krishna, are you listening (kELO kRuShNa),
when I go (hOdare) under the tree (maradaDige) to have shelter (neraLu eMdu)
Tree got burnt (uridu) to become glowing (dhaga dhagane) coal (keMDagaLAdavu)
when I go (hOdare) to river (hariva nIreMdu) to fetch water (nA nIrkuDiya)
for my thirsty the river (tore) became dry (batti battalAyitu)

disliked (manake bArada) woman (heNNu) is like a creeper (baLLi)
grown (habbida) on the house (manege)
Friends/relatives (manuja saMga) who cannot under stand (naDeyada)
me properly (manavaritu)
Krishna, when I trust (enage nI gatiyeMdu dhRuDavAgi naMbiralu) you so much,
is it fair for you to desert (kai biDuvare) me in the middle of sea (naDu nIrinoLu)

Not having strength to walk (naDevudake kAlilla),
don't have money (dhanavilla) to give/donate (koDuvudake)
toungue (nAlige) lost (haraNava duMbitu) its capabality to speak (nuDiva)
Hey Man (mind-manave), be happy (suKiyAgu) by trusting (nerenaMbi) the feet (caraNavanu)
of Shri Purandara vittala, who is the only hope for poor/destitute (baDavarAdhAri)

Meaning of the song “ninna magana gALi Ganavamma”:

Gopi (gOpamma), the troubles/hardship (gALi) created by
your (ninna) son (managana) is too much (Ganavamma)
Please call (karedu) Ranga (raMgage) and
teach him a lesson (buddi pELe)

He troubles (gALi) us too much (Ganavamma)
while warming (kAyuvalli) the milk (hAlu)
He put (addi) his feet (kAlu taMdu) in the vessel (kElinoLage)
and ran away (pOdanamma)
if we try to punish (kolla pOdare) him with a stick (kOla taMdu)
He ran away (ODipOdanamma) with child's playfulness (lIleyiMda)

He (ivana) troubles (gALi) too much (Ganavamma)
while churning (kaDevalli) milk for curds (mosaru)
He will snatch (uLiyagoDanamma) the butter (beNNe)
from child's (shishuvina) hand (kaiyalli)
Curd (mosaru) sellers (mAruvaru) are appealing (moreyiDuvaramma)
women (shashimuKiyaru) are complaining (dUruvaramma) like this (hIge)

If he comes (baralIta/tuLiyalIta) to streets (kEriyoLu) of village/city (UroLu)
He says (tAnaMte) that he is the Master (oDeya) of this World (IrELu lOkakke)
Gopamma, you made (mADi biTTeyamma) Him (dhIra puraMdara viThThalarAyana)
like a bull (basavana) on the streets/lanes (kEri)

Sudarshan sir,
Thank you very much but the lyrics of istu daya madide provided is different from which i asked. Here is the lyrics i want you to check whether the lyrics i got is correct or not i have a doubt in 2nd line is it shristestadayakane or shistestadata

iShTu daya mADidde ati sOjiga
shriShTEShTadAyakane bhraShTa mAnavanalli iShTu daya mADidde ati sOjiga

Ati durachari durmati durvishaya saktha
mithi illadeh heli toleh yanna paapa
Ratipati janaka shri pathi vithalaneh vithalane...
e krutiya enembeh aascharya toruvudu /3

iShTu daya mADidde ati sOjiga
shiShTEShTadAta bhraShTa mAnavanalli

[Sudarshan C R]

Hello Kamal
It should be ‘shiShTEShTa dAyakane’ or ‘shiShTEShTa dAta’
shiShTa = gentleness/good manners
shiShTEShTa = excellent in gentleness
dAta/dAyakane = the ‘one who can give’
hence shiShTEShTadAta is referred to as ‘Supreme God’

The meaning of the first charaNa will be like this.
O Supreme God, It is wonder (ati sOjiga) that you have shown (mADidde) that much mercy (iShTu daya)

Here is a song by Shri Purandaradasaru which narrates that 'Man proposes God disposes'.
In Kannada there is a saying 'tAnoMdu bagedare daivavoMdu bageyitu'. Whatever may be the man's wish,
but without the God's wish nothing will be successful.

rAga: pUrvikalyANi
tALa: aTTa
racane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

harichitta satya namma hari chitta satya
nara chittake baMdudu lavalEsha naDeyadu |hari|

maDadi/sudati makkaLa bhAgya bayasOdu narachitta
maduvyAgadiruvudu harichittavu |hari|

kudure aMdaNa aane bayasOdu narachitta
pAdachAriyAgodu harichittavayya |hari|

vidhavidha yAtreya bayasOdu naracitta
odagi baruva rOga haricittavayya /hari/

sadA annadAnava bayasOdu naracitta
udarakke aLuvudu haricittavayya /hari/

parara sEvisuvudu haricittavayya /hari/

puraMdara viThThalana bayasOdu narachitta
duritava kaLevudu harichittavayya |hari|

Meaning of the song:

God's wish (haricitta) is only the truth (satya)
Nothing (naDeyadu) will be materialised (lavalEsha-even a bit)
by man's (nara) wish (cittake)

Man wishes (naracitta) to have (bayasOdu) good wife (sudati/wife) and children (makkaLa bhAgya)
but failure (Agadiruvudu) to get marry (maduve) is the wish of God (haricittavayya)

Man wishes (naracitta) to have (bayasOdu) horse (kudure), chariot (aMdaNa), elephants (Ane)
but God's wish (haricittavayya) is he should become pedestrian (pAdacAriyAgOdu)

Man wishes (naracitta) to travel (yAtreya) so many places (vidha vidha)
but by God's wish (haricitta) he will fell sick (odagi baruva rOga)

Man wants (bayasOdu naracitta) to donate (dAnava) always (sadA) food/rice (anna) to others
but he will cry (aLuvudu) for food (udarakke) by God's wish (haricittavayya)

Man wants (naracitta) to rule (ALabEkeMbudu) the city/world (dharaNiyanu)
but he will become servant (sEvisuvudu) to serve others (parara) by God's wish (haricittavayya)

Man wishes (bayasOdu naracitta) to have Purandara vittala
but to come out (kaLeyOdu) of agonies (duritava) is the God's wish (haricittavayya)

Dear Lakshmanji
Here is the lyric and meaning of the song ‘noDuvude kaNNu”

rAga: dhanyAsi
tALa: aTTa
racane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

nODuvude kaNNu kELuvude kivi pADuvude vadana (kRuShNa) /pa/

muruDu kubjeya DoMka tiddi rUpiya mADi sereya piDisi koMbana
garuDa gamana shrIpuraMdara viThThalana sharaNAgata suradhEnu raMgayyana /3/

Meaning of the song:

The pleasure (suKada)/beauty (sobaganu) of prasing (kUDi koMDADuva) the handsome (gADikAra) Shri Venugopala with our eyes (kaNNu) to see (nODuvude), listen (kELuvude) with our ears (kivi) and sing (pADuvude) with our face/mouth (vadana)

One who nurtures (saMgaDisutalippana) all the birds/animals (mRuga pakShigaLanella) by playing his golden-flute (poMgaLolUduta)
Ranga, father of Manmatha (aMgaja janaka), who plays/move (suLidADuta) around with gopikas (gOpAMganeyaroDane) in moon-light (beLadiMgaLoLage)

Dance (kuNiva) like peacock (navilaMte), plays (naliyuva) like swan (haMseyaMte),
sings (kUguva) like small (mari) cuckoo (kOgileyaMte)
jumps (jigijigidADuva) like small (mari) antelope/deer (eraLeya)
murmur (jhEMkarisuva) like bumble bees (duMbiyaMte)
(In all above actions we can feel the presence of Lord)

Shri Rama when he was small child forcibly picked up by dwarf (kubjeya) old-woman (muruDu-Manthara)
and escaped from her arms (sereya piDisikoMbana)
ShripuraMdaraviThala who travels (gamana) on eagle/aquila (garuDA)
Ranga, protector of destitues (sharaNAgata) also called celestial-cow (suradhEnu)

(suradhEnu/kAmadhEnu=celestial Cow which fulfills all our wishes)

Here is the part-story of Manthara in Ramayana explained by Shri Bannanje Govidacharya:

"The seed was sown long back.
When Ramachandra was but a mere toddler, everyone was naturally enchanted by
the cute baby. All said and done, Manthara had a motherly heart as well. She
too fell in love with the baby. She wanted to hold the baby in her arms. She
reached out to Him. But this Puppeteer went ahead and set the stage for the act
to follow. He refused to go to her. But, Manthara would not give up. She
forcefully picked up the child. But Rama threw a tantrum, kicking her and got
down.
Kids
pick fights. Grown-ups actually fight. Kids quickly forget and unite. Grown-ups
never forget and turn it into enmity. Kids, due to this nature, show greatness."

snEhitarellarigu ‘yugAdi’ habbada shubhAshayagaLu. ‘Yugadi’ greetings to all our friends.

Here is a composition by Shri Purandaradasaru, which narrates that there should be teasers around us.
Presence of good people is evaluated when bad people are there.

Lyric goes here:

rAga: nAdanAmakriya/pUrvi kalyANi
tALa: aTTa
racane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

niMdakarirabEku /pa/
haMdiyiddare kEri hyAMge shuddhiyo hAMge /anupa/

aMdaMdu mADida pApaveMba mala
tiMdu hOguvarayya niMdakaru
vaMdisi stutisuva janarellaru namma
poMdida puNyavanoyyuvarayya /1/

duShTajanaru I sRuShTiyoLiddare
shiShTa janarigella kIrtigaLU
iShTaprada shrIkRuShNa ninnoLu
iShTE varavanu bEDuvenayya /2/

duruLa janaMgaLu cirakAlaviruvaMte
karava mugidu varava bEDuvenu
paripari tamasige guriyaharallade
parama dayAnidhe puraMdaraviThala /3/

Meaning of the song:

There should be (irabEku) teasers (niMdakaru) around us
Like (hAMge) pigs (haMdiyiddare) in a village to clean (shuddhiyo) up lane/by-lanes (kEri)

These teasers (niMdakaru) will eat (tiMdu) away (hOguvarayya)
the sins (pApaveMba mala) committed (mADida) by us on day to day (aMdaMdu)
The people (janarellaru) who praise/wish (vaMdisi stutisuva) us
will take away (oyyuvarayya) our (namma) virtue (puNyava)

when miscreants/wicked (duShTa) people (janaru)
are there in this world (sRuShTiyoLiddare)
Good (shiShTa) people (janarigella) will get reputation (kIrtigaLu)
ShrI Krishna who fulfil our desires (iShTaprada)
it is my humble wish (iShTE bEDuvenayya) to have your boon (varavanu)

I will pray (bEDuvenu) you for the boon (varava) with folded hands (karava mugidu)
let there be bad (duruLa) people (janaMgaLu) forever (cirakAlaviruvaMte)
puraMdaraviThala with supreme (parama) kind-heart (dayAnidhe)
good people have to undergo (guriyaharallade) tests/darkness (tamasige) often (paripari)

[Sudarshan C R]

Dear Lakshmanji
There are two songs starts with ‘raMganyAtake’. One is by Shri Vadirajaru and the other one is by Shri Prasanna venkatadasaru.
Since you have mentioned the composer’s name as Shri Vadiraja, so I gave his lyric.

Here is the lyric composed by Shri Prasanna Venkatadasaru.

Meaning of the song:

You shall not steal (kalabEDa) nor kill (kolabEDa)
Don't (bEDa) speak (nuDiyalu) lies (husiya)

Neither scorn (asahya paDabEDa) another man (anyarige)
Never glorify (baNNisabEDa) thyself (tanna) and

[Sudarshan C R]

Here is a composition by Shri Purandaradasaru, which narrates that just by remembering/
Chanting Hari’s name, all our sins will be vanished.

Lyric goes here:

rAga: yaman kalyANi
tALa: Eka
racane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru

hari smaraNe (bhajane) mADo niraMtara /pa/
paragatige idu nidhAna /anupa/

durita gajakke kaMThIravanenisida
sharaNAgata rakShaka pAvana nI /1/

smaraNegaida prahlAdana rakShisida
duruLa hiraNyakanudarava sILida /2/

taruNi draupadi moreyiDalAkShaNa
bharadiMdakShayavitta mahAtmana /3/

aMdu ajAmiLa kaMdana kareyalu
baMdu salahi AnaMdava tOrida /4/

shrIsha puraMdara viThThalarAyana
sRuShThigoDeyana muTTi bhajisi nI /5/

Meaning of the song:

Do (mADo) always (niraMtara) chant (smaraNe/bhajisu) the name of Hari
slowly (nidhAna) it (idu) will leads to emancipation (paragatige)

when that elephant (gajakke) was in crisis (durita) seeked refuge (sharaNAgata)
Hari came to his rescue to protect (rakShaka pAvana)

Prahlada (prahlAdana) is saved (rakShisida) because of his remembering (smaraNegaida) Hari
and killed wicked (duruLa) Hiranyaka (hiraNyakana) by tearing (sILida) his stomuch (udarava)

when Draupadi (taruNi draupadi) wailing for help (moreyiDalAkShaNa)
Great-man (mahAtmana) immidiately (bharadiMda) helped her by providing in-exhaustive vessel/dress (akShayavitta)

when Ajamila (aMdu ajAmiLa) called (kareyalu) his son (kaMdana)
Hari came (baMdu) to protect (salahi) and rejoiced (AnaMdava tOrida) him

You chant (muTTi bhajisi) Purandara vittalaraya
who created this Universe (sRuShTigoDeyana) and husband of Lakshmi (shrIsha)

Meaning of the song:

who ever see (nODidare) the moon (caMdirana) on
4th day of shukla paksha during Bhadrapada month (bhAdrapada shukladA cautiyaMdu)
that person will deffinately get a blame on him (apavAda tappadu)
Even Shreekrishna (naravEShadAri harikRuShNana hiDidu) could not avoid this curse,
leave alone the ordinary people (uLuvaMtha nararigU idu benna biDadu)

MADHAVA had born (udisida) in Madhure (madhureyali) to give sanctity (pAvana goLisi) to Yadava community (YAdava kulavanu)
HE has been named as cattle drower (gollanenisidane), thief (kaLLanenisidava) and
also held Govardhan mountain atop (gOvardhana giridhAri)
HE (KRISHNA) also had fear (aLukida manadalli) after seeing (kANuta)
the moon (cautiya caMdrana) during night (iruLali) on that day

King (rAja RuShiya) Sathrajita (satrAjitanige) acquired (doreyitu) the incomparable (anupama) jewel/gem (divyamaNi)
God Sun (karuNAmayanA dinamaNi) pleased to grant (nIDida varavanu) the jewel to him for his unbroken meditation (tapasige mecci)
KRISHNA went (horaTanu) to forest (kADinali) along with other Yadavas (yAdavaroMdige) for hunting (bETege)
Lion (siMhavu) killed (koMditu) Prasena (ratnadhAriya - brother of Satrajita) to get (paDeyalu) that jewel (divyamaNi)

People (janaralli) got (mUDitu) doubt(shaMkeyu) when KRISHNA returns (hiMdake baralu) alone (kRuShNanobbane) from hunting
they suspect KRISHNA might have robbed (kaLLa) of that jewel (amUlya maNiyadu)
KRISHNA got annoyed of this news (ennuva sallada nuDi kELi)
KRISHNA went (horaTanu) to forest (aDaviyali) in search (huDukuta) of that jewel (maNiyanu)
KRISHNA found (kaMDanu) that jewel (sUryana maNiyanu) in the cave (guheyalli) of Bear (karaDiya)

Jambavathi, daughter (magaLu) of Jambavantha, had that jewel (sUryamaNi) with her (baLiyalidditu)
Jambavantha, brave bear (vIrAgraNi), finds (kANade niMta) no end (koneyanu) of rigorous (ghOra)
fight (yuddhava) with KRISHNA

Finally KRISHNA appeared (kaMDubaMda) as RAMA (rAmanAgi) to Jambavantha (jaMbavaMtanige)
Jambavantha (jAMbavaMta) suffered (noMda) a lot for having fought (hOrATa naDesida tappigAgi) with KRISHNA
He surrendered (sharaNu sharaNu eMda) to KRISHNA and gave his daughter (magaLannu ittu) to KRISHNA along with the jewel (maNiyannu ittu)
Yadava community (yadukula) priased (hogaLitu) KRISHNA after seeing (kaMDa) the Shyamanthaka jewel (shyamaMtaka maNiyanu)
Praised saying - krishna jaya harikrishna jaya madahva radhalola jaya

KRISHNA also suffered (kADitu) the blame (apavAda) for seeing (darshanadiMda) the moon (caMdrana) on 4th day (cautiya)
People (dorevudu janarige) who listen (kELalu) to this story (I kathe) they will be relived (parihAra) of this curse (dOShada)
This is (iduve) the easiest way (sulabha vidhAna) to have the grace (olumege pAtrarAgalu) of Lord Ganapathi (gaNapati)
Gajanana with his blessings (harasuta) gives (koDuvanu) good intelligence (oLLe buddhiya) and success (kAryasiddhiya) to all

Today is ‘Kanakadasa jayanthi’. Here is a compostion by Shri Kanakadasaru, which describes that
If you are performing pooja, homa and other rituals, do it with devotion.

Lyric goes here:

ceMdAgi neleyAdikEshavana neneye /3/

Meaning of the song:

Why should (innEtaka) there be holy worship (hOma) with-out rules (nEmavillada) of rituals
why should (Eke) there be vedic verses (maMtra) without Lord Rama's name (rAmanAmavirada)

No need to take a dip (muLugalEke) in water (nIra), no need to live away (biDalEke) from wife (nAriya)
No need to remain on fasting (upavAsa mADalEke) once (oMdu) in a week (vArakke)
All the ghastly (ghOra) sins (pAtakavella) will vanish (tolagi hOguvudu)
by just remembering (nenedare) the name of Narasimha (nArasiMhana divya nAmava)

No need to reject (toreyalEke) clothes/garments (aMbarava)
no need to give-up (biDalEke) eating beetle leaves (tAMbUlava)
why one should live (iralEke) with cheating/swindling (DaMbaka) as profession (vRutti)
just by remembering (nenedare) Ambujanabha (aMbujanAbhana) with whole heartedly (bhAvadali)
will be allowed (iMbuMTu) to enter into the city of Vaikuntha (vaikuMTaveMba puradoLage)

Though you are in this earthly life (baMdhadoLage biddu), just remember (neneyutire) Hari (hariyanu)

Here is one interesting musical quiz song from the film ‘maMtralaya mahAtme’ .
It is a feast to lovers of Karnatic music. Though it is not a devaranama, or keerthana or dasarapada, it is definitely classified under
Karnatic music. The situation of the song is, when Shri Venkatanatha (Shri Guru Raghavendra rayaru of Mantralaya) along with his
Guru visited Thanjavur and compitation of all types of poetry, art/music was taken place.
Interestingly wonderful quiz lyric is composed by Shri G V Iyyar, and sung by Shri Viramani and P Leela for Rajkumar and dancer Radhika respectively.

Sudharshan,

Happy yugadi! nice song on this occassion. I liked the lyrics, thanks.

BMK and Rajkumar versions are in Sankarabaranam raga, but this SJ version is in a different raga. I think it's Behag.

[Sudarshan C R]

RR
Thank you RR.
Generally, in film music one can not stick to the particular notes based on one raga.
Raag ‘Behag’ is janya of ‘Shankarabharanam’ (Dheerashankarabharana). I feel SJ’s voice in this song with base note C# and having most reference notes of Shankarabharana raga.

Today is Ramanavami.
Here is a popular compostion by Shri Purandaradasaru which narrates that just by chanting the name of ‘Rama’ as Vedic verse,
one can easily rob (sUregoMbu) the heaven i.e., very easily attain abode/emancipation.
There are many other versions of this compositon.

Sudharshan,

This is one of my favorites, and I finally get to know the meaning, tks! Yes there are many versions. The very first I listened to was in Brindavani, by TVS.

Ramanavami brings to my mind the Bangalore concerts in Sheshadripuram. Miss those days. I hope they are still being organized (and still free).

[Sudarshan C R]

Thank you RR.

Yes. It is again 'Ramanavami festival' season here in Bangalore, many Carnatic music lovers will be eagerly waiting for this occasion. Gayana sabha, Kote Anjaneyaswamy temple ( Makkala koota, Chamarajapet). Malleswaram ramamandira, Seshadripuram Ramaseva samithi have arranged nearly month long music concerts by different artists. There are other new areas have also come up with same arrangement in their areas.

A small detail about Ramanavami festival cencerts appeared in local news DECCAN HERALD dated today:
