Is the ragam thodi or hamsanandi?
Can someone please post word to word meaning of this song?

Thanks very much

[Lakshman]

It is tODi.
The incomplete version of this is seen here:

Thank you

[SIyer]

Can you please also provide meaning, Lakshmanji. I have tried online, but no luck. I think its composed by Shri. Madurai Muralidharan sir... a beautiful composition that I want to choreograph.

[Lakshman]

I hope rshankar will be kind enough to provide the meaning.

[SIyer]

Thank you Lakshman sir. I have emailed him.

[rshankar]

Here is my attempt:

First off, if this is indeed a composition of Madurai Sri Muralidaran (I do not see his mudra anywhere), it is missing all the caraNasvara sAhityam segments. So, in that sense, it is incomplete.

IMO, this is a piece specially composed for the 10-minute time-slot allocated for each participant in the various dance competitions in Kerala, and is complete as is. Using this as a varNam in a traditional mArgam may not be adequate....

pallavi
ambikE akhilANDEshvari adisayam dinam purindaruLum jagadambE
Oh mother (ambikE) of the world (jagat) [1], suzerain (ISvari) of the entire univese (akhila), who blesses (aruLum) (us) by performing (purindu) wondrous/amazing feats (adisayam) everyday (dinam).

anupallavi
nambinOrkk-abhayam tarum nAdarUpiNi mInAkSi
vembinOr vinayaik-kaLaiyum vIra mA kALi haranuDan ninRADum
Oh mInAkshI, (you are) the very form (rUpiNi) of sound (nAda) that grants (tarum) (the boon of) fearlessness (abhayam) to those that believe (nambinOrkku) (in you)! You are the brave (vIra) and mighty (mA) kALI who removes (kaLaiyum) the consequences of (bad) deeds (vinai) of mentally anguished/distressed (vembinOr) (people).

muktAyisvara sAhityam
inbamum tarubavaLE tunbamum tuDaippavaLE nAda vinOdini tAmadam yEn ini
niranjaniyE nidam naTanam purindaruL en manam teLiya
Oh Lady who (not only) grants (tarubavaLE) bliss (inbamum), but also dispels (tuDaippavaLE) sorrows (tunbamum), one who derives pleasure (vinOdini) from sound/music (nAda), why (yEn) this delay (tAmadan) now (ini)? Oh spotlessly pure one (niranjaniyE), kindly bless (aruL) (us) by dancing (naTanam purindu) continually (nidam), so that my (en) mind/thoughts (manam) can become free of doubt/become clear (teLiya)

caraNam
angayarkaNNi azhagu mA maduraiyil vITRALum mahA dEvi
Oh mInAkshI (aMkayarkkNNi) [2], the supreme (mahA) goddess (dEvi), who dwells in (vITRu), and rules (ALum) the big (mA) and beautiful (azhagu) (city of) Madurai (maduraiyil)!

FOOTNOTES
[1] jagat+ambikE = jagadambikE
[2] If mInAkshi refers to a woman with fish-shaped (mIna) eyes (akshi), aMkayarkaNNi refines it even more, referring to a woman with beautiful (aM) fish-shaped (kayal) eyes (kaNNi)....

Can anyone please post complete lyrics of this varnam with lyrics?

[Lakshman]

The lyrics are already posted. If you are looking for the notations, I don't have them.

[rshankar]

Lakshman-ji,

I think what is being requested is caraNasvara sAhityam sets to complete the uttarAngam of the varNam.

[Vidhu007]

Hello Lakshman ji,

I went through the above posts. I want to know is there any significant story of Akilandeshwari and will it be a good idea to bring Madurai Meenakshi’s story in this?

[Vidhu007]

Lakshman ji,

Can you post the lyrics for the below song? And if there are any related story it will be helpful.

Thank you,

Looks like the following lyrics are almost similar to the lyrics in post #2 but in a different raga.

ambikE akhilANDEshvari (pv). rAgA: hamsAnandi. Adi tALA. Madurai R.Muralidharan.

P: ambikE akhilANDEshvari atishayam dinam purindaruLum jagad-

Can someone share related stories to Ambal for this for the sancharis? Stories on Akilandeshwari, Abirami, or anything that could be related to the full lyrics? Not so keen to bring Kali or chamundeshwari.

Thanks in advance.

[rshankar]

abhirAmi - the story of abhirAma bhaTTar.
If you want a not so frequently used story for kALI, you can use the story of kALidAsa.
Finally, the caraNa sAhityam offers scope for using the story of mInAkshI/angayarkaNNi

[Vidhu007]

Thanks R Shankar.
But the lyrics specified in this thread is not a complete one. Does this song have to have a story on Kali or Durga? I do not want to do on Durga or Kali. Any story on Akiladeshwari ambal?

[Vidhu007]

Thanks Rshankar. I am looking stories which will justify the line " adhisayam dhinam purindhidum", "dishai engum dhigvijayam seiydhidum", any story that will justify these 2 lines. I wonder if this song is just on Akhilandeshwari or saying that all the Goddess (Ambigai, Meenakshi) are none other than you (Akhilandeshwari)? It is little complicated, as I have gone over sthala puranam, Akilandeshwari puranam. I do not get any story of her dhigvijayam. All stories are revolving around Jambugeshwarar.
