[edit] Charanam

Show Details		O Blemishless Lord who – (a) seeing the misery of Lord Brahma – seated in Lotus, (b) shining as the Lord of the Solar – friend of Lotus - race, (c) having gone to the forest along with SIta – the Lotus Eyed, (d) having slayed Marica – one in the garb of deer, (e) having subdued the arrogance of the vile Ravana, (f) having bestowed the golden Lanka to the undoubting Vibhishana, (g) protected the celestials! please lie down in the heart of this Tyagaraja to get over the fatigue.

[edit] Variations

  • 1duritamulanu – duritamunu - duritamulu.
  • 4tyAgarAjuni hRdayamuna – tyAgarAja nuta rAma - The latter version does not seem to be appropriate in the context.

[edit] References

  • 3baGgAru laGka – Please refer to [Golden Lanka] There are many mentions of ‘golden Lanka’ in Sundara Kanda of Srimad-Valmiki Ramayana.
    • Lanka is called ‘serendip’ in Persian – a corruption of ‘svarna dvIp’. The word ‘serendipity’ was derived from this word. Lanka is considered an ‘island of fortune’ and described in many Persian Folk Tales, including ‘The Three Princes of Serendip’ – Source – [Svarna Dvip]

[edit] Commentary

  • 2nizzaGkuDagu – the alacrity with which Vibhishana sought the refuge of Sri Rama shows that he had no doubts whatsoever in his mind about the greatness of Lord Rama.
  • General – This Kriti brings to mind the Kirtana of Arunachala Kavirayar – ‘En paLLi koNDIrayya’. [Short sketch on the life of Arunachala kavirayar]
