Hari,
I hope you realized that SrI vEdanAyakam piLLai's composition is a masterpiece addressed to a non-denominational Supreme Being (SrI piLLai was a Christian, and vEdanAyakan, in addition to being his mudra can refer to any God), and the correct words in the pallavi are 'ninaippadeppOdu nenjE, ayyan padattai' and NOT ayyappan! The composition is also a denouement of the 'veLLaikAra durai', corrupt politicians, and crafty lawyers!

I think more than 5decades ago, pithamagha semmangudi has sung it ina gramaphone record . If somebody can post it without infringing legally , it will be a great boon gobilalitha

Shankar, Please listen to this track of DKP

http://www.sangeethapriya.org/~harihara ... uNenje.mp3

Though the composition has ayyan padattai, DKP is singing as ayyappan padattai.. Or, is it Ayyan than padattai?

I wasn't aware that composer was a cristian, but did notice that the song is not addressed to a particular god.

DKP has sung only last charanam, will love to hear a version containing all charanams.
