Chellam,
I listened to the song from http://www.tirumala.org/music1.htm. There are some variations from what is given above. There are some doubtful words which need to be checked. However, I am giving the meaning of most of the lyric along with the gist of meaning. This needs to be checked and corrected further.

REgarding Charana 1 -

kAlakUTa viShamaina grakkuna minginATi nIlavarNa

"who is dark-blue-hued as if he has quickly swallowed even the poison of kAlakUTa". IMHO, this is a poetical imagination. The implied comparison is with Lord Siva who has swallowed the poison emitted by vAsuki during amRta mantana and retained it in His throat so that he became known as 'nIla kaNTha'. Here viSNu's whole body is dark-blue which makes the poet to wonder whether He (viSNu) has swallowed the poison of kAlakUTa - the most venomous snake - such that His whole body has become dark-blue.

Lakshman,
In the third charaNa, 'nalligAni' appearing after 'kallagAni' may not be correct because 'nalligAni' is already given in the beginning of the charaNa.
The meanings of the following words are to be found out - dEva paTTa (1), celadi - gAmu - nAmu (2), and kalla - polla (3). In the audio version, I hear 'denapaTTa' instead of 'dEva paTTa'.

divakar · Post by **divakar** » 05 Feb 2007, 10:41

vgvindan:
the word is 'dEnepaTTu' or 'tEnepaTTu' which means 'bee hive'
'celadi' means 'sore' or 'ulcer'
'kalla' means 'untruth' 'fasle'
'polla' means 'a useless thing' or 'husk'

vgvindan · Post by **vgvindan** » 05 Feb 2007, 11:13

divakar,
IMHO, the meanings 'kalla' and 'polla' as given by you do not seem to be on the similar pattern as other pairs - 'eNDa - nIDa', 'tELu - pAmu', 'gAli - dhUli', 'cIma - dOma', 'billi - nalli'. Can you try pairing it?

divakar · Post by **divakar** » 06 Feb 2007, 14:41

i dont have any other physical meaning for 'kalla' and 'polla' to pair up on similar lines as others. however, meaning-wise i feel they are ok. 'kalla' false/lie and 'polla' husk are equally useless, only thing is that one is non-material and other is material. they just go with the rhyme.
in each charanam, i do not see a connectivity of the line with rhymed words to the line that follows.
starting with 'eNDa' and 'nIDa' (non-animals/insects) the lyrics deal with
'tElu-scorpion', 'pAmu-snake', 'tEnepaTTu-bee hive',
'gAli-wind', 'dhULi-dust'
'cIma-ant', 'dOma-mosquito' and 'celadi-sore'
and then to
'pilli-cat' 'nalli-bed bug' 'eluka-rat'
in that series, 'kalla' 'polla' are ok with their meanings.
i dont know what these animals, insects have to do with creating unrest in one's mind. every line ends with 'be it whatever'. i dont know what is meant.

if you see: the words are rhymed
p: eNDa, nIDa, ... koNDa..
c2: cIma, dOma, gAmu, nAmu...
pAmulanniTi..
c3: pilli, nalli, .....kalla, polla....
balliduDai...mammella

humdinger · Post by **humdinger** » 06 Feb 2007, 16:34

this may be kallu - pollu
kallu - stone, which is a massive object
pollu - hollow in the middle and light in weight.

just a thought.

vgvindan · Post by **vgvindan** » 06 Feb 2007, 16:48

divakar,
Persons like Annamayya do not put words in the kRtis for the sake of simple rhyme. There must be a common thread in the whole kRti which is what I am trying to figure out.

The common thread as I understood, initially, was that 'whatever condition I am in or subjected to, I would hold Lord venkaTeSa as my deity'. In keeping with this theme, I was trying to translate. Accordingly -

It is Lord venkaTESa - our family deity (kula deivamu), true deity (nija deivamu), Lord deity (dora deivamu), house-hold deity (iNTi deivamu) -
Pallavi - whether it is hot sun or cool shade;
Charana 1 - whether it is scorpion or snake or bee-hive or wind or dust;
Charana 2 - whether it is ant or mosquito or sore or ulcer (celadi) or gAmu? or nAmu?
Charana 3 - whether it is cat or bed-bug or rat or false or useless.

Somehow, it just doesn't fit in.

Alternatively, the theme could be "I behold everywhere Lord venkaTESa everywhere"
but again it does not seem to add up.

What a beehive and sore here mean? I am still left pondering.

IMHO, when translating the kRtis of such highly revered persons, one should find the theme before trying to interpret the terms used. This kRti is confusing me. May be we are missing something very obvious. What is it?

PS : After I posted, I saw the posting of humdinger. 'Stone' or 'hollow' in place of 'false or useless'. I am sorry, I still do not get the message.

divakar · Post by **divakar** » 06 Feb 2007, 19:31

i myself dont understand the theme:
Probably, the theme could be this:
'in ALL i.e., animals (cat, snake, etc.)/ insects (bed-bug, mosquito etc.)/ conditions (sun, shade, wind etc.) / useless thing (polla) / falsehood (kalla), etc. I see Lord Venkateshwara in all these various forms/things/conditions.'
Then the meaning of the words like 'kalla' 'polla' go well with respect to the bhavam of the kriti.

vgvindan · Post by **vgvindan** » 06 Feb 2007, 19:53

May we get more inputs please?

Rigapada · Post by **Rigapada** » 11 Feb 2007, 19:08

Meanings of some of the words as per 'Sankarnarayana Dictionary'

celadi = a spider;
gAmu = an evil spirit; a planet;
nAmu = a new sprout growing from a stumps of the great millet;
kalla = falsehood, lie; a fault; deceit; a fence;
polla = pollu = the empty ears of corn; chaff, trash, useless thing or word;
kalla-polla = false word-useless word

Hope this helps.

--Rigapada

vgvindan · Post by **vgvindan** » 11 Feb 2007, 20:18

Rigapada,
Thanks for the inputs.

glowing sun - shade; - kula daivamu
scorpion, snake, beehive, wind, dust; - nija daivamu
ant, mosquito, spider, evil spirit (planet), stump of millet plant; - dora daivamu
cat, bed-bug, rat, false word, useless word; - iNTi daivamu

I am wondering as to how to connect all these words and make a central theme for the song - may be each caraNa has a theme. These words do not seem to form any pattern. Are these words placed for the sake rhyme only? Any ideas?

venkmal · Post by **venkmal** » 18 Feb 2007, 00:53

thank you very much for the meanings. v/mal

divakar · Post by **divakar** » 18 Feb 2007, 09:51

in first charanam: phala sAramu = essense of result(s) and not 'end-result'. so, 'phala sAramu' is not 'kaivalya phala sAramu.'

the charanam goes like SrI nAmamu is
'kali dOsha haramu,' 'kaivalyamu,' 'phala sAramu,' and 'bahu bandha mOcanamu.'

in the second charanam, i think 'sammatamu' refers to 'agreeable to all' (sarva sammatamu)

in the last charanam, the first word is 'kaDaki' and not 'kaDagi'.

'kaDaki' = to/in the end or finally

vgvindan · Post by **vgvindan** » 18 Feb 2007, 10:59

divakar,
Thanks.
In the first caraNa, the meaning of the words 'phasa sAramu' (essence of results) is clear, but the purport here is not very clear.
On a second reading, I find that, in the third caraNa, the word 'taDavu' would mean 'search' or 'enquire' and not 'touch' etc.
Any suggestions?

venkmal · Post by **venkmal** » 19 Feb 2007, 16:51

just the utterance of the holy name of the lord itself in this kali age, will give us liberation and moksha phalam. Please remember. i think That is the message in the 2nd para.
tadavavo- may be realise the lord within you. any suggestions. i don't know telegu.

divakar · Post by **divakar** » 20 Feb 2007, 19:03

vgvindan: you are right.
taDavu (verb) = vedaku (to search)
taDavu (noun) = time.
taDavulADu = to go about searching
