Lji - Thanks - lovely composition!

The phrase 'a heart (hridaya) filled with compassion (sadaya) like that (sama) of a cloud (jalada) filled with water (sajala)' - is awesome - almost makes me wonder if Sri OVK is punning on 'Iram' (wetness) and 'Iram' (compassion).

Shankar - musically this song is beautiful also. DKJ Sir used to render it with great passion. I love the phrase 'rAsa rasa rasana' - such wonderful alliteration.

Indeed amazing!!!
Each line is wonderful.... the first line itself catches attention at once... prEma svarUpa.... how beautiful!

can some one please explain the meaning of the phrase -
lalita cikura mAyUra makuTadhara

Krishnaa,

I think it means 'one who wears (dhara) a crown (makuTa) of peacock feathers (mAyUra means 'coming from or belonging to a mayUra' - peacock) atop his charming (lalita) hair (cikura)'
