Sahitya for Ramachandra in Neelambari

[Mahalakshmi]

hi

Can anyone give me the lyrics for Mysore Sadasiva Rao's kriti Ramachandra raghunandana dasarathe in the raga Neelambari?

Thankyou

[Lakshman]

Are you sure this is a composition of Mysore Sadashiva Rao? His mudra sadashiva usually occurs in his songs.


rAmacandra raghunandana. rAgA: nIlAmbari. cApu tALA.

P: rAmacandra raghunandana dAsharathE karuNApayOnidhE
A: kAma janaka mukha sOma jaladhara shyAma janakaja vAmA harE
C: kamala caraNa kamalanAbha mAdhava kamala hasta kamalAmbaka kEshava
kamala mukha kamala kamala bAndhava kamala vacanatara kandara mAmava

Thankyou very much Lakshmanji. I'm not sure if it is Sadasivarao's kriti.

Nice composition and wish we knew the composer.

janakajAvAma - he who has Sita on his left side. ??? Is the sambhodana usage correct ?,

kamalAmbaka = kamala +ambaka (eyes) like lotus. (traya+amkaba refers to Shiva ).

kamalA mukha kamala kamala bhandava = kamalA - Lakshmi, - mukha kamala - lotus face, kamalbhandava - Sun. He is like the Sun to the lotus like face of goddesses Lakshmi.

kamalavachanatara kandara doesn;t make sense.. should be something else...


Here is a link to the Sri Sadashiva Rao's Krithis. The book is in Kannada script. Can someone who knows to read Kannada verify if this composition is in it.

A small correction::
It may be 'kamala vasana Dhara'::wearing a cloth of the color of kamala.
Tried to download the book. But only 12 pages could
be downloaded and 5 or 6 of Sri Sadashivrao's compositions
were there and the composition mentioned in post 4 was not there.

The book referred to and linked in the post #4 contains only the missing pages from a main publication called " Gaana Bhaaskaramu " in Telugu but not Kannada as mentioned.

5a5b's guess could be correct as kamalavasanadharakandhara means person wearing lotus coloured cloth on his shoulder ( pink angavastram )
