The kriti Rama madura nagari ramya - kharaharapriya has been rendered repeatedly by DKP and DKJ. I request the name name of the composer and also the lyrics if available.

It is a composition of nArAyaNa tIrtha from his work, kr.shNa lIlA tarangiNI. kr.shNa is describing the city of mathurA to his brother, rAma(balarAma).

rAga: kharaharapriyA tALa: miShracApu

p. rAma madhurA nagarI ramya

a. hEmagOpura prAkAra hIrakOTIrasambhArA

c1. saudha candra ShAlajAla sOmaravilIlalOlA

c2. navanava maNIShrENI nAkara maNImanOhAriNI

c3. kalindagirinandinI kallOla lOla padminI

There appears to be some mix up. I can clearly hear the following in the DKP-DKJ rendition:

p. rAma madhurA nagarI ramya
a. hEmagOpura prAkArakalita

rama ramani ekaabhirama
ratna koti ratambhara - rama

The mudra narayana tirtha is also missing. Besides, DKP would not pronouced 'Mathura' as 'Madura"

murthyhmg: Do you have an audio of the song to check the lyrics?

murthyhmg · Post by **murthyhmg** » 13 Oct 2007, 18:39

yes. i have uploaded it to www.sangeethapriya.org/~murthy 004 Members Requests s.no.118. This is the shorter version. The longer one with kharaharapriya alapana is about 17 mins.

hmgmurthy Sir: This occurrence alternate words is common and concurs with the observation made by B. naTarAjan in his "Krishna Leela Tarangini" book that there are some variations in the sAhitya of the tarangiNi(I don't remember the reason). The Vavilla edition from which Rigapada has provided conforms with the rendition which you provided.
