Lakshman,
Whose composition is it?

Interesting. One of my compositions in bhAgESri has this pallavi line:

kaNNan enRadumE kanindiDum kaDavuL
avan kanRugaL mEittiDum Or SiRuvan

Lakshman,
I had a black-out moment! I have heard the song too. This beautiful rAgmAlikai was tuned by Ananthalakshmi Sadagopan and is sung by her grand daughters Sumitra Nitin and Sunanda Narayanan in a CD called Minnal koDi, released by Rajalakshmi audios.

Thanks arasi. I don't remember where I got the lyrics but the words I have posted are quite different from the ones you have given, though mine may not make much sense in some places.
In caraNA 3 isn't there a phrase or two missing at the start? The caraNa seems quite short.

L,
You mean the 4th verse? I left the first line out because there is no correction there.
I asked Sumitra for the lyrics. So, I am quite sure this is the correct version. By the way, her mother Sujatha Vijayaraghavan has put in a lot of work in collecting Ambujam Krishna's work, even from the days when Ak was alive.
