Lyrics & Meaning of "vandisu" by Bhadraachala Raamadaasa

[HariKrishna]

This is sung by Sudha Raghunathan in nATTa rAgam on her Live at Music Academy - 1992 CD.

[Lakshman]

The CD is mislabelled. The song is by Purandaradasa.


vandisuvudAdiyali. rAgA: nATa. aTa tALA.

P: vandisuvadAdiyali gaNanAthana
A: sandEha salla shrI hariyAjneyida kuNDu
C1: hinde rAvaNa tAnu vandisade gajamukhana nindu tapavanu kaidu vara paDeyalu

3: indu jagavella ume nandanana pUjisalu cendadindali sakala siddhigalanittu

[HariKrishna]

Thank you for the corrections and the lyrics. I assume this is in Kannada, correct? Do you have a translation?

[HariKrishna]

Also, the CD listed the rAga as nATTai/pantuvarALi instead of just nATa - is this also mislabeled?

[VK RAMAN]

The title caption is misleading. This kriti is of Purandaradasa

Lakshman Sir
a couple of corrections.

At the begining,prostrate to gaNaNatha[p]
Do not have any doubt.shri hari himself has ordered this.[a.p]
Once rAvaNa, without prostrating to gajamukha,stood up and meditated.
and got boons.Within no time he[gajamukha] came and threw hurdles
and brought to earth, what all boons were granted [to rAvaNa] [c1]
Knowing this, hari adviced dharmaja to worship gaNapa first,and,
he [dharmaja] worshipped with devotion and by the grace of gaNanAtha,
won the kingdom,back.[c2]
To day the whole world worships umanandana[gajamukha] and he gracefully
fulfills the desires,serving the guardian sri purandara viTTala will stop the obstacles
of the devotees and grant happiness.[c3]
