[edit] Lyrics

[edit] Pallavi

mariyAda kAdurA
Show Details		O Lord! It is not honourable.

[edit] Anupallavi

karuNAkara vArini vIrini sari jEsi cUcucuNDunadi (ma)
Show Details		O Merciful Lord! It is not honourable to remain always making comparison between that man and this man.

[edit] Charanam

rAgamu tALamu rakti bhakti jnAna
yOgamu mariyanurAgamu1 lEni
bhAgavatuludara zayanulE2 kAni
tyAgarAjArcita tAraka carita (ma)
Show Details		Those (so called) great devotees, who do not have knowledge of music – Raga and Taala, pursuit of true knowledge tinged with loving devotion, and Supreme Love towards the Lord, are indeed subject to rebirth; O Lord worshipped by this Thyagaraja! O Lord who has the history of enabling fording of the Ocean of Worldly Existence!

[edit] Commentary

  • 1 anurAgamu – Supreme Love. Please refer to kRti ‘anurAgamu lEni manasu’, wherein Sri Thyagaraja states that unless one develops Supreme love (anurAgamu) towards Lord, he cannot attain real knowledge.
  • 2 udara zayanulu – the following verse from ‘Bhaja Govindam’ of Adi Sankaracharya is relevant –
    • punarapi jananaM punarapi maraNaM
      punarapi jananI jaTharE zayanaM |
      iha saMsArE bahudustArE
      kRpayA(a)pArE pAhi murArE ||
    • “It is ordained to be born again and die again; indeed it is ordained to sleep in the womb of mother again; this Worldy existence is difficult to ovecome; therefore, O Kind Hearted Lord – the slayer of mura! please protect me.”
