Son of dEvaki and vasudEva,{you are} the thief of

freshly churned butter,Son of vasudEva,You have a rich reputation,you are Divine.[p]

Worshipped by brndAraka and other sages,kEShava,{killer of the demon, kEShi}

Prince, for the devotees,with eyes like the petals of a lotus,Blissful,Excellent.[ap]

Shall we join the youngsters, and recite the name [of Sri rAma]

Shall we sprinkle the foot dust of the devotees on ourselves?[c1]

{you are }The King of Kings,The King,The Excellent King,

The Royal, The Valiant King,You are the crown on tyAgarAja[c2]

[Lakshman]

Thanks so much Savitri.

I have heard it sung as "navanita cOra devakI vasudEva nandana, yasoda nandana hE bhakta candana".

May be a different version.

[chetana]

Unlikely. All the words in the charanas are the same. So can't be a different song.

[VK RAMAN]

What is the raga?

[chetana]

What is the raga?

JhanjhuTi

[sivakami]

Interestingly, just now I saw that, there is one "Navanita chora" in chenchurutti of Annamacharya, in the song list of the concert by the Malladi Bros that took place recently..
Does that mean, there are two different kritis in the same ragam, beginning with same wordings? what a co-incidence!

[Sachi_R]

What a lovely song!

Listen to it here:

Dr Pantula Rama in her inimitable way:

and the latest, Ranjan Sivakumar in her classic way:

Both these versions capture why we live Carnatic music

By the way the Raga is Navroj. Not as mentioned earlier in the thread.
