1. O Lord Sri Rama! I have become blessed! I have been swimming in the Ocean of Bliss; O Lord Rama! I have, for ever, earned the name that I am Your’s.


2. From early days, I prayed only to You; I abandoned the company of evil people; I considered that my honour is Your responsibility.


3. I feared sins; I calmed down all the afflictions of the mind; O Lord Rama! placing Your holy feet in my bosom I worshipped You.


4. I abandoned desire for women; uttering repeatedly that ‘the nectar of Your name is the true livelihood of this Kali Yuga’, all my worries have gone away.


5. If one asks as to what happened to the comforts of this World, (I shall respond that) they vanished like the wealth dreamt of; by extolling You and meditating on You, I understood Your grand Illusion.

6. I was enamoured beholding Your beauty; I was caught in the hands of inseparable supreme Love towards You; I saluted You dedicating to You my whole life.


7. O Lord Rama! Would it be possible even for Brahma – four headed - or Indra or Lord Siva – One who wears the digit of the moon - to describe all that one has thought of? No, words will fail.

8. Did You think of looking at me as an alien? otherwise, are You still hesitating to declare that 'I am blessed'? O Sun who dispels the darkness enveloping the most eminent devotees!

9. O Lord Rama! I have desisted from the quality of passion; I have vowed in my mind to chant Your names; I considered that all these to be the merits earned by Tyagaraja.

Variations

  • 1bhAramanucunu talaciti – bhAramanucu nE telisiti : bhAramanucu talaciti - is appropriate.
  • 2pUjiJcanaitini – dhyAniJcaga
  • 3tolagi pOye – tOlagi bAya : toalgi bAya - does not seem to be appropriate.
  • 4indrukainanu –indukainanu - harikainanu : indrukainanu - seems to be appropriate.
  • 5dhariJcu vAnikainanu – dhariJcu vArikainanu

Commentary

  • This Kriti forms part of dance-drama 'Prahlada Bhakti Vijayam' . In this Kriti, Sri Tyagaraja depicts the feelings of Prahlada.
  • 6mUrdhanyulaina bhakta – this may be translated as 'most eminent devotees' or 'devotees who became most eminent'. From the preceding words 'anudhvAnta, the latter version seems to be more appropriate because unless the veil of darkness is first lifted, one cannot become 'most eminent devotee'. However, it may also argued that even in the most eminent devotees, there is a trace of darkness which is to be ultimately lifted by the grace of Lord. There is story of Narada – the most eminent of devotees – becoming conceited that he has won over Maya; in order to quell that pride Lord makes him into a woman and undergo suffering; For complete story, please refer to Devi Bhagavatam – 6th Book – Chapters 28 and 29 – Please visit the web site for the story - [Narada]
