VK RAMAN Sir,
is this the kirtana you needed?

[VK RAMAN]

Yes yes, savitri. Thank you.

[aaaaabbbbb]

There is a small error:
satisutulapai prEmarOsiti sam
tatamu *mIpe* BhAramuvEsiti
madilOna *mimiganula* jUDaga nenci
mIdayakepu Dedureduru jUciti[c1]
It is *mIpaI*
It is 'mimuganula'
{sorry for the typos}

[VK RAMAN]

Got it. Thanks

[smala]

Thank you for the link - an amazing singer, the father of Malladi brothers I never heard before - enjoyed it very much.

[smala]

Smt. Savitri would you please post lyrics to the viruttam as sung by Malladi Suribabu

[VK RAMAN]

who wrote this rAma mantram? beautiful.

[aaaaabbbbb]

VK RAMAN Sir,
I was not able to find the writer's name.
As you have observed, it is very simple and beautiful.

[smala]

Thank you Smt. Savitri for the full set of slokas, it is awesome. Looking forward to your translation of the entire piece.

[aaaaabbbbb]

smala ji,
The sanskrit I know does not give me enough confidence to write
the meaning
rshankarji, or Rajani can give a try.
Thanking you,
Regards

[smala]

Hope someone sees this post - Rajani/rshankar/Keerthi.

[smala]

hello, anybody out there?

[rshankar]

It's way beyond my ken. I hope Rajani or Keerthi will do the needful.

[smala]

Thanks, rshankar - waiting for either to post.

[sridhar_ranga]

Very good effort Amateur, congratulations.

sAranga hasta could mean Shiva, who holds the deer by name sAranga in his hand. The rAma mantra resides (nivAsa) on his lips (mukha) and hands (hasta) (perhaps as a book or a japamala)

[aaaaabbbbb]

WoW and WoW!
Amateur,good try and successful too!
Sarangahasta is Shiva.

[rshankar]

Amateur, a very professional job! I'm impressed by your patience.

sAranga means a deer - I am not sure if the deer Siva holds (invoked by, and thrown at him by the 3000 dIkshitas of cidambaram along with the snake, the battle axe and the evil muyalakan, when he came to teach them a lesson) was named sAranga in addition.
Siva is sArangapANi/sArangahasta, while vishNu is SArngapANi (bearer of the bow SArngam) which gets corrupted to sArangapANi or sArangan in colloquial usage.

[Amateur]

Thanks to all for the clarification of some of the points.
Both Saranga and Saranga hasta mean Shiva. It is the second hasta that was not very obvious.

A bit of search shows the following in the website

http://www.dlshq.org/religions/siva.htm

Lord Siva wears a deer in the left upper hand. He has Trident in the right lower arm. He has fire and Damaru and Malu or a kind of weapon. He wears five serpents as ornaments. He wears a garland of skulls. He is pressing with His feet the demon Muyalaka, a dwarf holding a cobra. He faces south. Panchakshara itself is His body.

His Trisul that is held in His right hand represents the three Gunas—Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. That is the emblem of sovereignty. He rules the world through these three Gunas. The Damaru in His left hand represents the Sabda Brahman. It represents OM from which all languages are formed . It is He who formed the Sanskrit language out of the Damaru sound.

given the fact that Rama mantra is referred to as praNava nilaya hasta nivasa also can be explained as above.

saranga hasta mukha hasta nivasa will mean the mantra that resides in the mouth & hands of Lord Shiva.

[classicallover]

Muthuswami Dikshitar also has used Sarangadhara in many places in praise of Shiva, especially where the raga Saranga is used.
