Naan Oru Siru Veenai-Chakravakam-Periyasamy Thooran

Post by revanthv552 »

I am looking for the lyrics and a brief meaning of the above mentioned krithi. I happened to hear it online a couple of days and was really in love with this composition. I searched for the lyrics online but could not find them. I would be grateful if someone could help me with these.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Revanth

Sone (bAlanE) of the sweet-tongued (tEnenum mozhiyAL) pAravti (Siva Sakti), the spear-wielding (vElanE) god (deivamAm) of the southern (ten) town of pazhani (pazhnApuri) (I am a small vINa, and you are its music/life force)!

Oh Lord (nAthanE), please come/appear (varuvAi) as good (nalla nalla) music (isaiyAi) so that this world (nAnilam) may derive pleasure (inbura), and I (nAn) will dance (naTam purivEn), and will sing (pADuvEn) with so much compassion and love (kanivuDan) that even a stone (kallum) will melt/dissolve (karainduruga), and will talk (pEsuvEn) about your (un) greatness (perumaiyai), oh repository of compassion (karuNaikaDalE)!

In Tamil :
* நானொரு சிறுவீணை அதன்
நாதமாம் உயிர் நீயே

* தேனெனும் மொழியாள் சிவசக்தி பாலனே
தென் பழனாபுரித் தெய்வமாம் வேலவனே

* நல்ல நல்லிசைகளாய் நாதனே வருவாய்
நானிலம் இன்புற நான்நடம் புரிவேன்
கல்லும் கரைந்துருகக் கனிவுடன் பாடுவேன்
கருணையங் கடலேயுன் பெருமையைப் பேசுவேன்

Dr.S.Ramanathan used to sing this a lot in his concerts.
