Thevittadha Thiru Natanam Kandaen

Post by venksmeens »

Hello everyone, good afternoon. I am trying to get the meaning of the lyrics of “Thevittadha Thiru Natanam”, a composition by Madurai R Muralidharan. It is an exquisite composition which we are going to use for an arangetram, but some parts I am not clear of the exact translation. Could someone please help me - or if this has already been addressed before, maybe point me to the right thread??

Best,
Venky.

Lyrics:
P: Thevittadha Thirunadanam Kandein Kangal Simittadhu Enai Maranthu InbaNilai Kondein

A: Thigattadha EzhilKondu Minnum Ayyan MalarpAdhamthanai Thooki Mangaiyudan Adum

C1: ThuthipAdum AdiyArgal Kandu Engum KidaiKAtha pErinbam Kondu
Piraman JathiThAla IsaiPAda NinrAn

C2: (Piraman JathiThAla IsaiPAda NinrAn) Sadai VirithAdi SeviThOdum AsaindhAdi IsainthAda

C3: NatarAjan EzhilmEni aravAdi NeLinthAda nathiyAda piraiyOdu NegizhnthAda panchanadai gathiyil
Dhuruva Matiya(Matya) kanda rUpa(rUpaka) thiruputai ata eka tAla
vilamba madhya thuritha(duritha) kAla layamudan avan pAdham Olikka

For a native tamil speaker above looks straightforward but let me know which part you need meaning/clarification, if i know i would try my best.
Eg: In C3: The seven thAla names are mentioned (these are Suladi Sapta thAla names without jhampa but kanda comes in lyrics instead) as well as slow,medium,fast 3 tempo/kAlam names mentioned.
