RSachi - just one small correction - it's not DKJ, but the third of the DK siblings, DK Nagarajan (who has lived in Washington DC for eons).

Right. It took the rAjan of nAgarAjan and translated to King.

But if you put the various related pieces in a separte line, google does better

டி.கே.பட்டம்மாள்.
தம்பூரா இசைப்பவர் தந்தை கிருஷ்ணஸ்வாமி தீட்சிதர்.
அருகில் தம்பி
டி.கே.நாகராஜன்

translates to

Pattammal D.K..
Tampura icaippavar
Father kirusnasvami titcitar.
Near brother
Nagarajan D.K.

Though it does not know the contextual difference between "sitting nearby, brother D.K. Nagarajan" and 'near brother D.K. Nagarajan'

May be translation is a bigger hammer for this, transliteration would have been a better fit. May be both.

Kalki Sri Krishnamurthy had composed four songs for Smt. Pattamal to sing in concerts - one of which is the famous pUnkuyil kUvum. Are recordings of the other compositions available, by Smt. DKP, especially from the iSataTTugal (gramaphone records) that were realeased in the 1940s?

Gist for some who may not be able to follow Tamizh script:
Born as daughter of Damal Sri Krishnaswamy who was a teacher in Kanchipuram. He encouraged her musical talent. She could sing slokas even at four years of age and win recognition.
She sang in a public meeting addressed by Gandhi and won applause.
Songs in films:
ThyAga BhUmi: Desa sevai seyya vArIr; Bandham akanru nam thirunAdu uytthiDa.
Nam iruvar: ADuvome paLLu pADuvome (this was broadcast on AIR on the 15th Aug 1947, for which she declined remuneration); Vetri ettu dikkumetta.
Mahatma Udankar: KANa Aval kondengum en vizhika; kunjitha pAdam ninainthurukum.
ThyAgayyA: Radhika KrishNA; Ninainthurukum ennai.
Rama Rajya: Enakkun irupadam.
VethALa ulakam: ThIrAtha viLaiyAttu piLLai; ThUndiR puzhuvinai pol.
Pizhaikkum vazhi: EngaL nAttukentha nAddu periyathu; mudalai vAyil; kottai kattAdeDA.
VAzhkkai: Bharatha samudAyam vAzhkave.
LAvanyA: Pazham BhAratha nannADu.
Vanasundari: NADu sezhitthiDavum uLLame nADu.
He Ram: Vaishnava Janatho.
In Tirunelveli, BhArathiyAr’s wife heard her sing BhArathiyAr’s songs and shed tears. She told DKP that BhArathiyAr would have been very pleased to hear it.
On 30th Jan 1948, when Gandhi was assassinated, she set SAnthi nilava vendum to tune and sang on AIR. She refused remuneration for it.
She has been awarded Padma Bhushan and Padma Vibhushan awards by GOI.

To all the rasikas of D.K.Pattammal... Most of us would have read 'Carnatic Summer'. It was the era of 78 RPM records. Personally , it was through such records played through radio that we learned about the songs of MS, NCV, DKP , Madurai Mani , GNB. and others. Though there were concerts, most people of that generation living in small rural areas got acquainted with classical music only through these records played in radio . Saregama may not mind if we place all those nice songs of DKP in a website . instead of uploading in youtube. The problem is getting those records. Rasikas may come across either tube uploads or links to audio for the following records. ( not rendered in concerts in later years please). All these were solo records.
---------------------------------------------------------------
song title in tamil first and transliterated title within brackets)
1) மானஸ குரு குஹ- ஆனந்தபைரவி ( Maanasa guruguha roopam . Ananda Bairavi)
2) மாமவ பட்டாபி ராமா -மணிரங்கு ( Maamava Pattabi Rama- Manirangu)
3) சங்கீத ஞானமு -தன்யாசி ( Sangeetha Gnyanamu Bakthi vinaa- Dhanyasi)
4) தணிகை வளர் -தோடி ( Thanikai vaLar saravana bavaa- Thodi)
5) சாமிகி சரி எவரே -( Sri Krushna samiki sari evvarae ..) what is the ragam of this nice song?
6) மாமவ மாதவ தேவ கிருஷ்ணா ( maamava maadhava dheva krushnaa - Neelaambari)
7) பஞ்சாஷட் பீட ரூபிணி - கர்நாடக தேவகாந்தாரி (panchaa shat pee(t)a roopini- Carnataka Devagandhari)
8) எந்தநினே சபரி பாக்கியமு -முகாரி ( entha nine sabari bagyamu -mukari)
9) எனக்குன் இருபதம் நினைக்க ( enakkun irupadham ninaikka varam arulvaay -ragamalika- Ramarajyam film)
10) தொன்று நிகழ்ந்தது அனைத்தும் ( thondru nikazhnthanaitthum unarnthidu -Bairavi, Barathi song)
-----------------------------------
Kindly bear with me for not using the standard transliteration tool ).Pattammal devotees can easily guess
even if they cannot read tamil script. ( I hope)
I am creating a website for D.K.PATTAMMAL songs and will be grateful for help.
If there are no objections, I will give a second and third list . of ten songs each

1934.. DKP was just 16 then. Kalki has reviewed her concert and mentioned her rendering of Munnu Ravana in Todi.with appreciation. .. Thanks to APKoil N Sapthagireesan who contributed the mp3 of the original 78 RPM record, Sri Ramachander site for English transliteration and translation of the Thyagaraja kruthi and Sri.V.Govindan's 'Thyagaraja vaibavam' site for thamizh translation, here we have the reclaimed gem.

Just two days back, I was lucky to get the vintage 78 rpm rendering of Maamava Pattaabhiraamaa' ( manirangu).
by D.K.PATTAMMAL .
I have uploaded it to youtube and also in the site dedicated to DKP songs of those years. ( Dr.Pasupathy;s blog post with advts of that 'plate' in 1945 came in handy. DKP would have been around 27 then!
I took the liberty of using Sri.V.Govindhan's devanagari script of lyrics and meaning of the song. )

On this website the lyricist of the song tIrAda viLaiyATTu piLLai is shown as Krishniah. The song is generally believed to be the work of Subramania Bharati. Is he the one who set it to music?

Sri. Lakshman ji -> 'Theeraadha Vialiyaattu Pillai' is a famous and lovely poem by Subramanya Barathy. D.K.PATTAMMAL made it an immortal song in Vedhala Ulakam film by AVM in 1948. The music director was Sri.Sudharsanam. ( brilliant)
For purists who object to studio orchestration, the background music ( especially in the beginning of the song may be an 'ear-opener') . The song was a ragamalika ( beginning with Sindhubairavi, ...kamaj, shamugapriya and one more. ( it escapes me right now..may be Mand).

I learnt number of Bharathiar songs, more than 60 years ago, listening to Mrs. Music (பாட்டம்மாள்). What a clarity of pronunciation! Her songs demonstrate how the accompanists, particularly Mridangam players should play softly. Nowdays mridangam players insist on keeping the speaker volume so high. They ignore Thyagaraja's comment 'sogasugA mridanga tALamu jathagUrchi'. Recently T.M Krishna gave a concert without mridangam. The songs could be heard and enjoyed.

Sri.Lakshman ji, I dont know. why the lyricist is given wrong name.
Such things may be due to generation gap.
For example, NCV classic 'PiLLaip piraayatthile' of Subramanya Barathy is mentioned as by Suddhananda Barathy in the youtube . ( donated by saregama)

Another lovely Subramanya Barathy song . rendered by D.K.PATTAMMAL
'CHINNAN CHIRU KiLiye KaNNamma , selav kaLanjiyame'.
http://freemp3host.com/play:13402
The song was a 78 rpm record. Sri.Lakshman ji may know the likely year of the release. It was not a film song. It begins with Kamaj ragam stanza. The Ragamalika has I remener about 5 ragams. Information will be very useful if available.

மெச்சி யுனை யூரார்- புகழ்ந்தால் மேனி சிலிர்க்குதடீ.
கன்னத்தில் முத்தமிட்டால்-உள்ளந்தான் கள்வெறி கொள்ளுதடீ
உன்னை தழுவிடிலோ- கண்ணம்மா உன்மத்த மாகுதடீ.
உன் கண்ணில் நீர்வழிந்தால்- என்நெஞ்சில் உதிரங் கொட்டுதடி;
என் கண்ணில் பாவையன்றோ? கண்ணம்மா என்னுயிர் நின்னதன்றோ!
என் உயிர் நின்னதன்றோ! என் உயிர் நின்னதன்றோ!
======================================================================
Lakshman ji is requested to give the standard transliteration.
Also kindly let me know if the record is complete.
This is supposedly from an old 78 rpm record.
What ragams are there? I am not sure. Kindly help
.
======================================================
This poem is about a proud father about his girl child

chinnanchirukiLiye kannamma SelvakkaLAnjiyame (chinnanchiru)
Ennai kali theerka ulagil etram puriya vanthaai (chinnanchiru)
PilLLai kaniyamuthe kanNNamma pesum porchithirame
Alli aNaithidave enmunne aadi varum thene (chinnamchiru)
Odi varukaiyile kaNNamma uLLam kuLiruthadi
Aadi thirthal kaNaal unnaippoi aavi tazhuthadi
Uchithanai mukarnthal karuvam ongi valarithadi
Mechi unnai urar pugazhnthaal meni silirkuthadi
Kannathil muthamittal ullamthaan kaLveri koLLuthadi
Unnai thazhividilo kaNNammaa unmathamaguthadi
Un kaNNil Neer vazhindaal en nenjil uthiram kottuthadi
En kaNNil paavayanro kaNNammaa En uyir ninnathanro! en uyir ninnathanro! en uyir ninnathanro!

To D.K. Pattammal (1919-2009), music was not just aesthetic creation; it was sacramental art. "

I found a wonderful presentation of SRI SATHYANARAYANAM by Dhikshithar ( suba panthuvarali) in sujamusic.wordpress.com today. The lyrics in devanagari script( sanskrit original), transliteration ,and translation in English are given there. Very nice. D.K.Pattammal 's rendering ,in my memory and opinion is simply superb. I have lifted the entire thing from the above blog and created a page for this magnificient kruthi and rendering.
