Needed: Viruttam

[hydkarthik]

Hello all,

Can anyone let me know how many of the Nalayira Divya Prabandhams are composed in praise of Lord Venkateswara at Tirupati? What are they?

Check "096. Tiruvengadam (Tirupati)" at:-

Thanks for the info
The site gives the list of hymns composed by the saints at different kshethrams. How can I get the hymns.? (I mean the sahithyam.)

There are so many viruttams in the files that you mentioned. I am actually looking for just one which would be apt choice before singing the krithi Balagopala Palayasumam (Bhairavi-Muthuswamy Deekshithar)

Karthik

[rshankar]

How about a SlOka on bAlagOpAla?
karAravindena padAravindaM
mukhAravinde viniveSayantaM
vatTasya patrasya puTESayAnaM
bAlamM mukundaM manasA smarAmi

[hydkarthik]

But i am looking for a Tamil viruttam

Periyazhwar has written the most number of pasurams on young Krishna and his antics. Since the kriti starts with 'Balagopala', one of these verses on young Krishna might be suitable:


maittaDankanni yaSOdai vaLarkkinRa
Seittalai nIla niRattuc ciru piLLai
neyttalai nEmiyum Sangum nilaviya
kaittalangaL vandu kANIrE
kananguzhaiyIr vandu kANIrE


mattak kaLiRRu vasudEvar tammuDai
cittam piriyAda dEvaki tan vayiRRil
attattin pattAm nAL tOnRiya accutan
muttam irundavA kANIrE
mugizhnagaiyIr vandu kANIrE

SItakkaDaluL amudanna dEvaki
kOdaikkuzhalAL aSodaikkup pOttanda
pEdaikkuzhavi piDittuc cuvaittuNNum
pAdakkamalangaL kANIrE
pavaLa vAyIr vandu kANIrE

[sridhar_ranga]

Another alternative is these two verses from amalanaadipiraan - these have been rendered as viruttam often and you should be able to get a recording, though I am not sure if you will find a version set to bhairavi: the first verse refers to balakrishna floating on a banyan leaf and the second one refers to Gopala (Kovalan).

Ala mA marattin ilai mEl oru bAlakanAy
jnAlam Ezhum uNDAn arangattu aravin aNaiyAn
kOlamA maNi Aramum muttuttAmamum muDivilladOr ezhil
nIla mEni aiyO niRai koNDaden nenjinaiyE

koNDal vaNNanai kOvalanAy veNNai
uNDa vAyan en uLLam kavarndAnai
aNDar kOn aNi arangan en amudinai
kaNDa kaNgaL maRRonRinaik kANAvE

TRS has sung this brilliantly

krishno rakshatu no jagat-traya-guruh krishnam namadhvam sada
krishnenakhila-satravo vinihatah krishnaya tasmai namah
krishnad eva samutthitam jagad idam krishnasya daso 'smy aham
krishne tishthati visvam etad akhilam he krishna rakshasva mam

may dovetail well into the krithi

[rshankar]

Varsha, it's beautiful, but I think the OP clarified that he wanted a true viruttam, i.e., one in tamizh.

[varsha]

oh ! did not notice refining of specs
is it ok to sing viruttam in one language and krithi in another .
not that the Lord would mind
I mean, has any one does this before ?

Yes, the classic example that comes to mind is Smt. MSS singing the SlOkam karacaraNakRtam in sanskRt in a viruttam format, followed by SambhO mahAdEva in tamizh....

[cienu]

Two more examples of MSS come to mind.
Petra Thai by Ramalinga Swamigal in Tamizh followed by Siva Siva Siva Bho of Mysore Maharaja in Samskrit and Thaazh Sadaiyum - Pasuram in Tamizh followed by Enta matramuna evvaru talachina of Annamacharya in Telugu .

[rajeshnat]

I think mixing up languages is welcome , I think mixing up God is generally not followed

Can I k now the viruttam in Nalayira Divya Prabandham written in praise of Narasimha Swamy and Sri Rama

ThirumangaiyAzvAr's hymns on 'ThiruvallikkENi' Narasimha are famous:

In particular, the hymn 1075. starting with 'paLLiyil ' ..is very good. Story of Prahlada.

[hydkarthik]

Are there any varnams and/or Tillanas composed in praise of Sri Namrasimha swamy?

Can anyone please give word to word meaning for the Karavindena viruttam ?

[Rajani]

smarAmi - I think of
bAlam mukundam - the child Mukunda,
manasA - with my heart,
vinivESayantam - (who is) placing
padAravindam - (his) lotus-like foot
mukhAravindE - inside (his) lotus-like mouth
karAravindEna - with a lotus-like hand ,
SayAnam - (he who) reclines
puTE - on the surface
vaTasya patrasya - of a banyan leaf.

[rnfhari]

Thanks for the meaning !!
