GIFTED VOICE

Raga Suruthi.

very nice...

తెలుగు
నగుమోము గనలేని నా జాలి తెలిసి
నను బ్రోవగ రాదా శ్రీ రఘువర నీ

నగరాజధర నీదు పరివారులెల్ల
ఒగి బోధన జేసే-వారలు గారే యిటులుండుదురే

ఖగరాజు నీ యానతి విని వేగ చనలేదో
గగనాని కిలకు బహు దూరంబనినాడో
జగమేలే పరమాత్మ ఎవరితోమొరలిడుదు
వగ జూపకు తాళను నన్నేలుకోరా
త్యాగరాజనుత నీ

Smt Geetha Raja has rendered it so beautifully & at a pace which makes it

Very Good but still prefer Maharajapuram Version better

Balamurali is the gretest singer of these ustava sampradaya krithis

Sompaina,, ( very Beautiful ) .. Ahiri Ragam , so beauitful bed was laid by Saint Tyagaraja for His Lord Sree Ramachandra ..

He made the bed with Flowers , the fragrance .. from them ..
as he makes the lord sit on that beautiful lovely Bed, offers him Milk to drink and asks Him to go to sleep
and as he in his sleep ...Tyagaraja sings this wondreful lullaby.. must be then a bit sultry weather , so by applying sandal paste and wonderful atmosphere .. He created .. a beautiful imagination or in real very hard to differentiate ...
he does many seva's for His lord and finally pleads silently to care for him
this devotee who worships him at heart and it is true....

very beautiful kriti and nicely sung

Raag Ananda bhaiaravi, jhampa taalam

This charanam i not sung in this ..... caraNam 2........ ................................. ANimutyAla sarulalla lADaganu vAni patIndru liru varusa pogaDaganu ..... mANikya sOpAnamandu mellaganu vIAa palkula............. vinucu vEDka cellaganu .......

A song celebrating the glorious -- Auspicious -- presence of the Lord.....as Shubhamangalam.....in appreciation of His grace, charm, beauty, multitude virtues....for prosperity and blessings.....

TRUE BEAUTY........This Utsav Sampradaya song....is a Mangala Arati song........beseeching ever so lovingly and gently..... to wake up from His slumber......and grace everyone waiting with His darshan......VERY beautiful......... .Gist :------- O Lord RAma - united with excellent sItA! O My Fortune! O Lord reclining on SESa! O Eminent One of the solar dynasty! O Lord of Emperors! O Moon Faced! O King of ayOdhya! O Lord of virtues! O Lord whose feet are praised by this tyAgarAja! O King! May You wake up ! please look after us. nArada and others, seeking You, are now singing abundantly about Your greatness; the day is about to dawn; may You wake up quickly to partake nicely fresh butter and milk! The celestial damsels are reverentially praying to You to (permit them to) render service to You; the excellent lamps - lit by aNimA and others – adorned with gem-studded ornaments - are fading. All the Lords of celestials and others are waiting for worshipping You; may You wake up in order to govern this Universe!

Another Thalattu Paattu...Lalli Paattu.......a song for sayana arati......getting the Lord to sleep......Gist :------- O Supreme Lord! O Lord hari – dark-blue hued like the rain cloud! O Peerless Lord SrI rAma! O Moon Faced Lord! Nicely lie down on the bed of jasmine flowers. Having partaken boiled milk mixed with honey and sugar, and chewing the scented betel leaves, and showering grace on me, nicely lie down on the bed of flowers. Having applied well fragrant sandal paste on Your body and having shiningly adorned with flower garlands fully around Your neck, nicely lie down on the bed of flowers. Having accepted the bed spread out as prescribed in the shAstras, and feeling happy that all the services rendered by this tyAgarAja to be really so, nicely lie down on the bed of flowers.

Seetha Kalyanam in Utsava Sampraadyam is a must attend in festivals, usually conducted at the end of the Ramanavami festival.......for grace, prosperity.....This illustrious ceremony between Lord Rama and Sita described so beautifully in the passages of Ramayana is a model for Hindu marriages and is usually played at that time....... More from Sumana Premkumar :------........Ramayanam teaches several things in several stages. In this SitaKalyanam stage it teaches us to give due respect to bride or bridegroom's side (as explained in Balakandam sarga 72) and welcome each other without any misunderstandings like Dasharatha and King Janaka. ......the two individual who are in the form of Mahalakshmi and MahaVishnu. It also says that marriage is to be for Dharma's sake and not for Bhoga's sake..... put in this simple form. The couple (Jeevatma) who are in the form of Mahalakshmi and Mahavishnu have to reach Mother Mahalakshmi and Father Mahavishnu(Paramatma). In Hindu religion wife is called as Dharmapatni. Its because wife is one who should show and shows the path of Dharma to her husband. This is the primary and first step for any wife and this only will lead to Moksha.

Let us offer Aarati to the Lord...the consort of Sita. (....pati ki harati)...........Gist :----- O Damsels! Let us perform wave offering to the Lord SrI rAma – Consort of sItA. Let us perform wave offering to Lord SrI rAma – Consort of sItA - the Lord who utters very soft and pure words and the Lord of entire universe. Looking at the Lord with emerald (hued) body, shining on the golden hued sEsa, as He speaks to His wife, let us perform wave offering to Consort of sItA with pride. Standing on both sides of the Lord with due diligence, shining charmingly, as the nose-studs, resembling the sheen of moon, sway in (our) beautiful faces, let us perform wave offering to Consort of sItA without delay. As the Moon, Sun, Lord ziva, indra, sage zuka, brahmA, garuDa and others watch, to the jingle of the sparkling bangles, let us perform wave offering to the effulgent Lord viSNu – Consort of lakSmI, praised by this tyAgarAja.

A MOST beautiful song -------Sayana Arati.....to the Lord......getting the Lord to sleep with love and tenderness............Gist :------- O Our Lord! O Father of Lord brahmA! May You swing to the lullaby on the soft bed of SESa. As this tyAgarAja extols You whole-heartedly, may You swing to the lullaby (a) along with Your Younger brothers with great display of jokes, (b) along with that sItA who offers fragrant betel leaves, and (c) along with the kings. ....

why not plead Rama the very sight of him when it clears you of everything and gives you Moksha.. ..... I seek refuge in you O Rama... you are the mighty valour king of all manavajati itself........ I bow to yo O Rama..for you are the lord of Sita devi's heart, you the destroyer of the ahankaara of jamadagni................... I ask your blessings for your very Lord of Moha pasa and many more gunas related .. you have the power to liberate one and all from this.. give moksha / mukti .. .......... So thi s Tyagaraj pleads you everytime for the aupicious place at your feet .. o param kalyaana yuta Sree Rama.. the very thought of you sight of you is a good omen...

too melodious.. so melodious like the very Lord Rama it self only.. in a melodious kaamavardani raag set to roopak taal.... what a bliss it is.. when you look up at peerles s Lord Rama.. on earth , who is the lord of sita devi's heart .. who has even washed the ahankaar of jamadagni... who is worshipped by all munis, who is the liberator of all moha ,maya , pasa , king of all and above all .. yes he is the Lord Rama, whose very sight itself washes away all the sins, This tyagaraja too can't be away from that wonderful mangalamoorti Ramachandra as he always pleads , prays for His grace and mercy only....

Raag Snakarabharanam... Jhampa Taal

How grand and imposing the wedding of SIta is! Praised by AnjanEya, this Hero of countless exploits, having the sun and the moon as His eyes, and possessing a frame of ravishing beauty is an unfailing Protector of His devotees and Bestower of prosperity and Beatitude, which is a part of His LIlas. He causes terror in the minds of RAkshasas. His calmness and composure reveal Him as one who has no more desires to be fulfilled. Sporting a radiant blue hue, He is the source of Bliss for the world. Resider of AyOdhya, He is the Prop of the entire world. A peerless warrior in battles, He is beyond the ken of men of arrogance and haughtiness. He is tall and courageous, reminding one of the great Mount MEru. He is the Hero figuring in the Scriptures. With an unmatched form, He is the mainstay of His devotees, whose sins He wipes out graciously. Celebrated by Lord Siva in song and music, He is the raft enabling deserving mortals to cross the ocean of SamsAra. That is the aim of His incarnation in the solar race, He whom TyAgarAja worships.

Raag yadu kula Kaambhoji... Taalam Jhampa.. a wonderful call to rama.. ...... O rama you are th efather of pacchavilthuni ( Manmatha) ..... Come, Rama, your name and fame regally announced!.................... here he describes lord Rama how to come also..fully decorated with ornaments in Gold , where all the sages and celestial celebrities look for such attire and sing of praise of... as if a sweet parrot is blessed by the goddess Saraswati only to say and sing words dipped with honey only in praise of you... like... O! Rama please come with the singing of the parrot on your sister's hand (mInAkshi?) who has come to see you as celestials rain flowers, .................... for tyAgarAjA to enjoy the beautiful scene!...................
