Purandara dasar composition

Post by shobana »

Hi,
I have one minute of a Purandara dasa audio starting as "Shreenivaasa namma purandara pura vasa" and I would like to know the correct lyrics and meaning of those lyrics.
Also I'm not sure if those lyrics are the beginning of the composition or ending. I couldn't find any such composition of Purandara starting like that.
Please help - how can I attach the mp3 audio here?

Thank you,
Shobana

The raga is Ranjani. It's a Thillana sung by Ms.Shoba sekar in the album "rare gems".

Sorry for delayed response.
Thank you again.

The lyrics part of the tillAnA is the caraNa that was written specially for the tillAnA by the composr. It is not part of any Purandaradasa song.
