Meaning of Neeraja Manini - Hamsanandhi

Post by bala94ms »

Namaskrams,

Can some one please provide the translation or the meaning of the following krithi composed by Sri Ganapathi Sachidananda Swamigal, Mysore.

Neeraja Manini - Hamsanandhi - Nishada Swara Devatha Krithi.

vAdhyodamshat divya nAma sankeerthana kalAnidhim
nAdharthim sachidAnandam sadgurum tham namAmyaham

pallavi:
nīraja mānini nirupamadhāmani
nivaha matim ghrni-nilayē pūṣaṇi

caraṇaṁ:
nisthhura nīrava nīti nivrttē
nirmala nistula nitya suvrttē
nirgata nirbhara nīca viṣādē
nirmada nirmama bhāskara dēvē ...1

yatra niṣīdēt svaranicayassā
nīrava gītī nīrava dacchā
tāṁ gaja rītī nihita niṣādāṁ
trividhāmicchati saccidānandē ...2

Bala,

Please check the lyrics again with some other reference. There seem to be some mistakes. Meaning can be given later.

Well , mistakes can creep in at any time and due to many things like transcription, transliteration, typographic, bad pronunciation, etc.. Even if it was published by the ashram, printer's devil is another factor to be accounted for.

Classicallover Sir,
I tried my best to get copies of the corrected lyrics but I Could not. I am rendered helpless. Can you please correct/edit the lyrics suitably to make it complete/correct ?
Also, Can you please look into the thread where I have asked for the Meaning of the Shadja Devatha Krithi "Saraya Saraya in Karaharapriya" ?

Thank You So Much,
Bala94ms.

bala,

It will not be prudent to correct the lyrics in the absence of original manuscript. I can only suggest something with my understanding. But it will amount to giving my opinion as a correction, which I do not want to do. I don't react unless I am sure of something.

However, I will try my resources for obtaining the lyrics or the translation if available, for your sake.
