Old pallavis

Place to go if you want to ask someone identify raga, tala, composer etc or ask for sāhitya (lyrics) or notations or translations.

Old pallavis

Post by narayan »

Old time pallavis, many of them in Telugu, seem to still be pop up occasionally. I have no idea what they mean, so this is a request for a rough translation of some of them (not sure of the word splits, even!).
Nelata marulu kontini vanipai sadananda
Kari mora vinaleda hare krishna
Mahima teliya tarama rama ni
Perhaps sanskrit - Ramnad Krishnan pallavi in Begada/Sahana (Daravidalita kuvalaya dala nila ... or so)
KVN pallavi in Begada (from faint memory) .. Hari ni ... Brahmananda ...
Thanks in advance.

kari mora vinalEdA, harE kRshNA?
Did you not hear OR have you not heard (vinalEdA) the call/appeal (mora) of the elephant (kari), oh kRshNA?

mahima teliya taramA, rAmA, nI
Do we (I) have the ability (taramA) to understand/know (teliya) your (nI) greatness (mahima), oh rAmA?

Thanks, rshankar and aaaaabbbbb.
The other two pallavis are from memory and I would like to correct Sahana/Begada to Sahana/Bhairavi that Ramnad has sung that pallavi in.
