slOkA(s) on tyAgarAja?

prashant · Post by **prashant** » 20 Dec 2006, 22:31

I remember once reading a slOka I think composed by Sri MDR on Dikshitar. Are there any slOkas composed on tyAgarAja? There was some discussion long back on sangeetham about a slOkam / mangaLam sung by Sri Sanjay on tyAgarAja. Could someone help with pointers/lyrics? Thanks.

I have heard Prof SR Janakiraman sing his composition on Tyagaraja. A very nice varnam in rAga vandana darini. The lyrics to go like bhulOka...

"vyAsO naigama carcaya" is a popular ShlOkA on tyAgarAja composed by his disciple, vAlAjapETTai venkaTramaNa bhAgavatar. the mangaLAshTaka starting with the words, "ShrImad kAkArla vamShAbdhi..." is also by the same.

kmrasika: Could you or someone else [Lakshman Sir?] post the lyrics of 'vyAsO naigama', 'shrImad kAkarla vamSAbdhi' and the Sri Guru Stotra-ashtakam in Sanskrit? The Walahjapet book I have does not list either of these compositions. Thanks in advance.

Thanks you meenaji. While in Chennai I managed to lay my hands on the CD of Sri Sanjay 'Ashwattha' which contains the mangaLASTakam.

Would it be possible for someone to translate vyAsO naigama to English? Thanks.

Meaning courtesy: late Sangeetham.com BBoard contributors

Tyagaraja is similar to vyAsa when there is any reference to the vEda-s
he is similar to vAlmIki when it comes to sweet poetry
he is similar to s'uka when it comes to vairAgya
similar to prahlAda for bhakti, similar to brahma and nArada for music and literature and finally he is similar to s'iva when it comes to drinking the nectar of rama nama-I bow to you- Tyagaraja

aparokshitha raamachandra moorthi : chulakasthaapitha geethathoya raashi : |
mayigeethivilaasa laabha hetho karunaam thyaagamuneeshwaro vidhaththaam ||

Shloka by Pudukottai Shri Ganesha Sastrigal during early 1960s upon a request by a Thyagabrahmam devotee.

Broad Meaning "Salutations to the king of saints (thyaaga muneeswara - thyaagaraja) one who had the vision of shri ramachandra murthy! the one who had captured the ocean of music into his palm! may he mercifully bestow his blessings to me for obtaining the true value of music!"
