Divine Song - Thyagaraja  Kriti - C Vijaychandra Kumar

Ragam: Devagaandhaari; Talam: Adi

Ksheera Saagara Sayanaa - Nannu
Chintala bettavalenaa - Raama

Anupallavi
 

Vaarana raajunu brovanu vegame
Vachchinadi vinnanuraa - Raama

Charanam  

Naareemaniki cheeralichinadi
Naade ne vinnanuraa
Dheerudow Ramadasuni Bandhamu
Deerchinadi Vinnanuraa
Neerajakshikai Neeradhi Daatina
Nee keertini vinnanuraa
Taaraka naama Thyagarajanuta
Dayato nelukoraa Raama

Meaning: This is another famous kriti of Saint Thyagaraja. The impact of the Devagaandhaari Raaga on the lyric is something special. The raaga takes care of the depiction of the meaning very effectively. The Saint requests the Lord Raama to save and protect also him along with various other devotees who were saved and rescued earlier. He narrates various incidents as though he is reminding the Lord of His past deeds.
