Namaskaram

Sri Rama Navami is being celebrated on 15th April. To celebrate this occasion we are glad to share today the Thyagaraja Kriti "Maamava Raghuraama" in raga Saaranga.

Sri Tyagaraja pleads in this Sloka to protect him by chiding Sri Rama by asking many questions.

We are glad to share the divine voice of Sri M. Balamurali Krishna.

The lyrics with meaning and the audio link is shared in the below link.

Have a divine Sunday and a great week ahead.

Happy Sri Raama Navami wishes to all.

Maamava Raghuraama - Saaranga - Rupaka

Pallavi

Maamava Raghurama Marakatha Mani Shyaama 

Oh Raghurama, who shines like emerald and who is blue, please protect me.

Charanam

Paamara Jana Bhima Paalita Sutraama 
Duritambu Podu Dunuma Manasu Raadu 

You are protector of innocent folks . You are protector of Indra.
I am not able to get rid off my sins. My mind is not even inclined to do it.

Kalasaambudhilona Karuna Karagipoyenaa 
Vinumari Samaramuna Vidhi Saramu Virigenaa 

Has your compassion melted away in ocean ? 
Please listen. Was your Brahmastram destroyed in war?

Kala Satyamu Suguna Kaananamuna Nilichenaa 
Divya Naraapaghana Daivatvamu Boyenaa 

Did you leave away your virtues like truth in forest ?
Did you loose your divinity because you took human form ?

Raajaadhipa Tyaagaraaja Vinuta Baaga

Oh Rama the king of kings, Tyagaraja worships you.
