Hi!

I am a telugu lady. I want to know the meaning of two songs in Tamil by Subrahmanya Bharathi: 1. Chinnanjiru kiliye kannamma, 2. Kannane En kaanavam.

Thanks in advance

I think kaNNanE en kaNavan is by ShuddhAnanda bhArati and not subrahmaNya bhArati.

Thanks a lot for the meaning of 'Chinnajiru kilaye'. It is a pleasure to sing it when you know the meaning. Such a lovely expression of mother's love!!
The other song,'Kanane En kanavam' is not by Suddhabnanda Bharathi. I checked Karnatik site. In musicindisonline it is given as Surahmanya Bharathi only. If you can help me I will be very happy.

Well, Syama, I was the one who gave the meaning for the "cinnanjciru kiLiyE" song in the URL that is mentioned. I am a fan of Subramanya Bharathi, and to my knowledge he did not write the song "kaNNanE en kaNavan" song. However, if you can locate the lyrics for that song and post it here or tell me where I can find it, I will be happy to give the meaning for that song.

P.S: DO NOT trust everything that you read at the karnATik site. It is a good resource but it has a lot of erroneous attributions, texts, and meanings (wherever they are given). When I read the meanings for some songs there I cringe as to who wrote those.

kaNNanE en kaNavan. rAgA: kalyANi. Adi tALA. Composer: Shuddhananda Bharati.

P: kaNNanE en kaNavan vEru karuttum illai mana poruttamum illaiyE
A: maNNulagattilE puNpaTTadE pOdum mAdhavanukkE en kAdal ellAmE pOghum
C: andi paravai pOla ATTam ellAm aDangi antakaraNam avan cintayilE oDungi
vanda vinaigaL ellAm cinta tavam puriyum parishuddha nilai tanda giridhara gOpAlan

Here is the general meaning:

P: kaNNan is my husband, I am not considering anybody else nor there is a proper match.
A: I have had enough misery in this world (maNNUlagam); my love is only to mAdavan (Krishna)
C:Like the evening bird which is completely exhausted (after hunting for food), my mind and thoughts are all centered on him. Krishna (giridhara gOpalan) gave the frame of mind to do penance and dwell on him in order to get rid of the evil consequences of past actions.
