BMK sings this song in his 75 Raga CD set. Is it a rare one? I have not heard this by anyone else. I don't have any other song in this ragam either.

P: kanikaramunci gAvaga rAdA
garudagamanA I tAmasaEla

A: dinamani vamsa bhushanA
mrduvadanA dinajanAvanA (...?)

C: caranAgata vatsaludani birudu
ganiyincina nannu brocuta maguvA(?)
varaguna jAla varana pAla
dharanijA lOla tygarajArcita

? marked words were not clear.

This is a composition of the tacchur singaracarlu brothers. students of subbaray shastri. They wrote several music books. composed the vasanta varnam..

This is notated in one of their several books. the caraNa line should read:

dharaNijA-lOla vara-Singararcita

Why sri BMK has changed it is anybody's guess.

This pancama raga is a janya of Kharaharapriya - srdpnS Sndpmgrs

I have heard on a radio programme that VeeNa shEShaNNa revelled in playing this rAga.. HarikEsanallur mutthiah bhAgavatar has used it in a couple of ragamAlika-s and also has a song in it, if I amn't mistaken...
