PATHITHODDHAARINI GANGAE
DWIJENDRALAL ROY.
AI
The song "Pathithoddharini Gange" (also spelled Patitoddharini Gange) sung by M. S. Subbulakshmi is composed in Raag Bhairavi (often rendered with melodic variations as Mishra Bhairavi).
:The song was originally written and composed by the prominent Bengali poet and playwright Dwijendralal Roy (making it a Dwijendrageeti) as a soulful ode to the sacred river
M. S. Subbulakshmi learned this classic directly from Dwijendralal Roy's son, the legendary musician and philosopher Dilip Kumar Roy, who was one of her musical gurus.

Redeemer of the fallen (sinner), o mother Ganges/Ganga
Your awesome rolling waves (ripples) wash the banks filled with dense dark trees (forests)
Countless towns and cities became holy by touching (kissing) your holy feet for ages
Countless men and women were blessed by bathing in your holy water
O mother, you have been flowing for very many ages/ eons through this land, Bharatavarsa
With your cool, holy waves/undulations, you have rejuvenated many arid / infertile lands
Enchanted by Narada’s kirtan, Madhava bestowed his mercy
Overflowing from the Brahma’s Kamandalu (religious/ritual pot), you flow down from Siva’s (Dhurjati) tresses
Rolling (further) down from the lofty sky through the plain lands, (like) torrent of light in the midst of darkness
(you) descend down from snow-laden origin and got united with the ocean
O mother, while at my final rest (awaiting death), forgoing earthly pleasure and pains
Shower my ears with sound of your gushing waters; give eternal sleep to my eyes
Shower/grant peace to my disturbed soul / ebbing life-force, shower my body with “Amrita”/Ambrosia (and thus bless me with immortality)
O mother, Bhagirati (caused by Bhagiratha), Janhavi (daughter of sage Jahnu), Suradhuni (divine river), the eternal flowing Gange.
Redeemer of the fallen (sinner), o mother
Ganges/Ganga

मानो तो मैं गंगा माँ हूँ,
ना मानो तो बहता पानी,
जो स्वर्ग ने दी धरती को,
में हूँ प्यार की वही निशानी,
मानो तो मैं गंगा माँ हूँ,
ना मानो तो बहता पानी ॥

युग युग से मैं बहती आई,
नील गगन के नीचे,
सदियो से ये मेरी धारा,
ये प्यार की धरती सींचे,
मेरी लहर लहर पे लिखी है
मेरी लहर लहर पे लिखी है
इस देश की अमर कहानी,
मानो तो मैं गंगा माँ हूँ,
ना मानो तो बहता पानी ॥

कही मोची चमड़े धोए,
कही पंडित प्यास बुझाए,
ये जात धरम के झगड़े ओ,
ये जात धरम के झगड़े,
इंसान की है नादानी,
मानो तो मैं गंगा मा हूँ,
ना मानो तो बहता पानी ॥
गौतम अशोक अकबर ने,
यहा प्यार के फूल खिलाए,
तुलसी ग़ालिब मीरा ने,
यहा ज्ञान के दिप जलाए,
मेरे तट पे आज भी गूँजे,मेरे तट पे आज भी गूँजे,
नानक कबीर की वाणी
मानो तो मैं गंगा मा हूँ,

That Heaven bestowed upon the Earth.

Re: Two Bharata Ratnas : Lata and MSS
The iconic rendition of "Ennaganu Rama Bhajana" by the legendary M.S. Subbulakshmi was originally preserved and distributed as a vintage 78 RPM shellac record released in 1946 by the premium label His Master's Voice (HMV) under the record number N. 18680.
Composed by the revered saint-composer Bhadrachala Ramadasu (Bhakt Ramadas) in the Carnatic raga Pantuvarali
https://youtu.be/KRt8ZpLXgHA?si=nFmU5mAoJRwLoeiv
.
Ennaganu Rama bhajana kanna mikkilunnada?
Shapa karanamuna Ahalya caparati candamaye
Papamella base Rama padamu sokinantane
Rupavatulalo nadhika rupurehkalanu kaligiyu
Tapamella teeri Rama tattvamella telupa leda?
Ramaciluka nokathe penchi
prema matalada nerpi
Rama Rama Rama yanucu
Rama Rama Rama yanucu
ramani yokate palkaga
Prema meera Bhadradri
dhamudaina RamavibhuDu
Kamitartha phalamu licci
kaivalya mosaga leda?
is there anything greater than singing the praises and worshipping Lord Rama
.Oh my mind, contemplate and praise Lord Ramachandra. What is the point of begging or seeking help from family and friends whom you have seen or heard of? (They cannot grant you salvation).
.
Because of a curse, Ahalya was turned into a stone. The very moment the divine feet of Lord Rama touched her, all her sins vanished instantly. She was restored to life, becoming the most beautiful among women, her deep inner torment was pacified, and she bore witness to the supreme truth of Rama
.
A woman lovingly raised a pet parrot and taught it to speak affectionate words. As the beautiful parrot kept chanting "Rama, Rama, Rama", the Lord of Bhadrachalam (Rama) was deeply pleased. Did He not grant the woman her deepest wishes and bestow ultimate salvation (kaivalya) upon her just for uttering His name?

Meenakshi Memudam Dehi" is a masterpiece in Carnatic music composed by Muthuswami Dikshitar in the raga Poorvikalyani (also historically referred to as Gamakakriya) and set to Adi Tala. The rendering of this composition by the legendary M.S. Subbulakshmi, alongside her daughter Radha Viswanathan, remains one of its most definitive and soul-stirring interpretations.
The kriti is dedicated to Goddess Meenakshi, the presiding deity of the historic temple town of Madurai, which also happens to be M.S. Subbulakshmi’s birthplace.
.
https://youtu.be/fde2WZC6xjE?si=xuJryV2GlCPijoSI
Meaning & Significance
• Pallavi: The composer implores Goddess Meenakshi, who has a beautiful dark complexion and is the embodiment of Raja Matangi (the goddess of music and arts), to grant him absolute bliss (mudam dEhi).
• Anupallavi: She is described as Maya, the consort of Shiva, who glows like an emerald (marakata chAyE). She is the fish-eyed goddess (mInalOcani) who resides in the Kadamba forest. Crucially, she is hailed as "Pashamochani"—the liberator who breaks the bonds of worldly attachment.
• Charanam: This verse grounds the Goddess in her mythological context as the daughter of the Pandya King Malayadhvaja and the beloved of Lord Sundareswarar (Shiva) in Madurai. Dikshitar beautifully weaves the name of the raga into the text with the phrase vINAgAna dashagamakakriyE, referencing her mastery over the ten types of musical ornamentation (gamakas) played on the Veena..

Saraswati Vandana

.

The traditional Saraswati Vandana ("Ya Kundendu Tusharahara Dhavala") is a sacred Sanskrit hymn dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, music, arts, and wisdom. Below are the complete lyrics in both Devanagari (Hindi/Sanskrit) and English transliteration, along with their meaningful translation.
Devanagari Lyrics (संस्कृत / हिंदी)
या कुन्देन्दुतुषारहारधवला
या शुभ्र वस्त्रावृता
या वीणा वरदण्डमण्डितकरा
या श्वेत पद्मासना।
या ब्रह्माच्युत शंकर प्रभृतिभिर्देवैः सदा वन्दिता
सा मां पातु सरस्वती भगवती निःशेषजाड्यापहा ॥१॥
शुक्लां ब्रह्मविचार सार परमामाद्यां
जगद्व्यापिनीं
वीणा पुस्तक धारिणीमभयदां
जाड्यान्धकारापहाम् ।
हस्ते स्फाटिक मालिकां
विदधतीं पद्मासने संस्थिताम्
वन्दे तां
परमेश्वरीं भगवतीं बुद्धिप्रदां शारदाम् ॥२॥
English Transliteration (Roman Script)
Ya Kundendu-Tusharahara-Dhavala Ya Shubhra-Vastravrita,
Ya Veena-Varadanda-Manditakara Ya Shveta-Padmasana |
Ya Brahmachyuta Shankara-Prabhritibhir-Devaih Sada Vandita,
Sa Mam Patu Saraswati Bhagavati Nihshesha-Jadyapaha ||1||
Shuklam Brahma-Vichara Sara Paramam-Adyam Jagadvyapinim,
Veena-Pustaka-Dharinim-Abhayadam Jadyandhakara-Paham |
Haste Sphatika-Malikam Vidadhatim Padmasane Sansthitam,
Vande Tam Parameshvarim Bhagavatim Buddhi-Pradam Sharadam ||2||
Meaning of the Verses
• Verse 1: Salutations to Goddess Saraswati, who is pure white like a jasmine flower, the moon, and a garland of snow pearls. She is draped in pristine white garments, her hands hold the beautiful Veena and the boon-giving staff, and she sits gracefully on a white lotus. She is eternally adored by Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu (Achyuta), Lord Shiva (Shankara), and all the gods. May that supreme Goddess protect me and completely eliminate my mental laziness and ignorance.
• Verse 2: I bow to Goddess Sharada (Saraswati), who is fair, the embodiment of the ultimate essence of divine knowledge, and who pervades the entire universe. She holds the Veena, sacred books, and a rosary of crystal beads (Sphatik) while bestowing fearlessness and dispelling the darkness of ignorance. Seated upon a lotus, she is the supreme ruler who blesses us with a pure and sharp intellect.

Keeje sudrishti, keeje sudrishti
Sevak jaan apna
Itna vardaan deeje taan, taal, aur alaap
Buddhi alankaar, Sharda
Hey Mata Saraswati Sharda.
Mother Saraswati, Sharda! Oh, Mother Saraswati, Sharda!
Vidya daani, dayaani, dukh harni
You are the giver of knowledge, the goddess of compassion, and the remover of sorrows.
Jagat janani, jwaala mukhi
You are the mother of the universe, radiating with the light of a cosmic fire (representing absolute purity and energy).
Keeje sudrishti, keeje sudrishti, sevak jaan apna
Please cast your auspicious glance upon us, looking at us as your humble servants.

The traditional Saraswati Vandana ("Ya Kundendu Tusharahara Dhavala") is a sacred Sanskrit hymn dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, music, arts, and wisdom. Below are the complete lyrics in both Devanagari (Hindi/Sanskrit) and English transliteration, along with their meaningful translation.
Devanagari Lyrics (संस्कृत / हिंदी)
या कुन्देन्दुतुषारहारधवला
या शुभ्र वस्त्रावृता
या वीणा वरदण्डमण्डितकरा
या श्वेत पद्मासना।
या ब्रह्माच्युत शंकर प्रभृतिभिर्देवैः सदा वन्दिता
सा मां पातु सरस्वती भगवती निःशेषजाड्यापहा ॥१॥
शुक्लां ब्रह्मविचार सार परमामाद्यां
जगद्व्यापिनीं
वीणा पुस्तक धारिणीमभयदां
जाड्यान्धकारापहाम् ।
हस्ते स्फाटिक मालिकां
विदधतीं पद्मासने संस्थिताम्
वन्दे तां
परमेश्वरीं भगवतीं बुद्धिप्रदां शारदाम् ॥२॥
English Transliteration (Roman Script)
Ya Kundendu-Tusharahara-Dhavala Ya Shubhra-Vastravrita,
Ya Veena-Varadanda-Manditakara Ya Shveta-Padmasana |
Ya Brahmachyuta Shankara-Prabhritibhir-Devaih Sada Vandita,
Sa Mam Patu Saraswati Bhagavati Nihshesha-Jadyapaha ||1||
Shuklam Brahma-Vichara Sara Paramam-Adyam Jagadvyapinim,
Veena-Pustaka-Dharinim-Abhayadam Jadyandhakara-Paham |
Haste Sphatika-Malikam Vidadhatim Padmasane Sansthitam,
Vande Tam Parameshvarim Bhagavatim Buddhi-Pradam Sharadam ||2||
Meaning of the Verses
• Verse 1: Salutations to Goddess Saraswati, who is pure white like a jasmine flower, the moon, and a garland of snow pearls. She is draped in pristine white garments, her hands hold the beautiful Veena and the boon-giving staff, and she sits gracefully on a white lotus. She is eternally adored by Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu (Achyuta), Lord Shiva (Shankara), and all the gods. May that supreme Goddess protect me and completely eliminate my mental laziness and ignorance.
• Verse 2: I bow to Goddess Sharada (Saraswati), who is fair, the embodiment of the ultimate essence of divine knowledge, and who pervades the entire universe. She holds the Veena, sacred books, and a rosary of crystal beads (Sphatik) while bestowing fearlessness and dispelling the darkness of ignorance. Seated upon a lotus, she is the supreme ruler who blesses us with a pure and sharp intellect.

Re: Two Bharata Ratnas : Lata and MSS
Saraswathi is said to be a Rugvedic Goddess of eloquence.and music, poetry and knowledge, literature
While there are Puranik visualizations, Bharathy has really grasped and presented the essence of rugvedic chant.
Immortalized by Bharathi and Gaana kalaadhara.
Here MS amma renders it with equal sweetness
https://youtu.be/9GjBEzkzMY4?si=_CvnGf9reXMLicam
வெள்ளைத் தாமரைப் ...பூவில் இருப்பாள்
வீணை செய்யும்... ஒலியில் இருப்பாள்
கொள்ளை இன்பம் ..குலவு கவிதை
கூறு பாவலர்... உள்ளத் திருப்பாள்
..உள்ளதாம் பொருள் தேடி உணர்ந்தே
ஓதும் வேதத்தின் ..உள் நின்றொளிர்வாள்
கள்ளமற்ற முனிவர்கள் கூறும்
கருணை வாசகத் துட்பொருளாவாள்
மாதர் தீங்குரல் பாட்டில் இருப்பாள்
மக்கள் பேசும் மழலையில் உள்ளாள்
கீதம் பாடும் குயிலின் குரலைக்
கிளியின் நாவை இருப்பிடங் கொண்டாள்
கோதகன்ற தொழிலுடைத்தாகிக்
குலவு சித்திரம் கோபுரம் கோயில்
ஈதனைத்தின் எழிலிடை உற்றாள்
இன்பமே வடிவாகிடப் பெற்றாள்.

INCREDIBLY ACCURATE
She dwells within the white lotus flower;
She resides in the melodies created by the veena.
She abides in the hearts of poets
Who compose verses brimming with exquisite delight.
She shines from within the Vedas—
Those scriptures that seek and reveal the ultimate truth.
She is the inner essence of the compassionate words
Uttered by sages, pure and free from guile.
She exists in the sweet, melodious songs of women,
And in the innocent prattle of children.
She has made her home in the song of the cuckoo
And upon the tongue of the parrot.
She manifests in the beauty of all things—
In noble, flawless craftsmanship, in paintings, in temple towers;
She dwells within the grace of all such creations,
Embodying the very form of pure bliss.

Re: Two Bharata Ratnas : Lata and MSS
o mata bhawani
saare jagat ki rani
bane desh apna
.....baharo ka sapna
o sukh bhare
......sabki jivan kahani
o mata bhawani
.......saare jagat ki rani
,Oh. Mother Bhavani,
Queen of all the spheres,
May our nation blossom,
banishing all fears.
May lives be filled with joy,
a tapestry so bright,
Oh, Mother Bhavani,
sovereign of the light..

Goddess Bhavani is a revered form of the Hindu Divine Mother, widely identified as an aspect of Goddess Durga, Parvati, or Adi Parashakti. Her name translates from Sanskrit as "the giver of existence" or "the one who gives life".
She is depicted as both a fierce warrior who slays demons (Asuras) to dispense justice and a compassionate mother who protects and provides for her devotees.
She is typically portrayed with eight arms, wielding various weapons (such as a sword, bow, arrow, and conch), and is often seated on a lion or tiger.
Worship of Goddess Bhavani is deeply rooted in Maharashtra, where the historic Tulja Bhavani Temple in Tuljapur serves as a major pilgrimage site
