[Chitram]

Yes, RaviShankarji, it is a Sabdham. Thanks in advance!

Govardhanagiri Maa Malai thanai
Kolamigu viral thaangi nindravan
Gokulam thanil gopar gopiyar
Konji valarndhavan Mayavan - Madhusoodhanan

Azhagu nadai nadandhu Amutham thathumbidhum
Mazhalai Mozhipala pesuvan
Suzhalum Vizhi thanil kurumbu migave
Kuzhaivu migu vennai venduvan - Moha Muralidhara

Aavingalthavi vandida
Kovvidum kuyil koova marandida
poovithal pullanguzhal thanil
Vasanthamritha ganam isaipan - Bala Gopala

Panchali Parithavithe
Panidhavanai vendinal
Parandhodi vandavalin
Maanam kathu magizhthava
Vanna mayliragai aninthava

[rshankar]

Chitram - I will post the padArtha with corrections to the lyrics over the next couple of days.

[Chitram]

Thanks, Raviji.
