GIRIRAJA SUTA ’’ (Bangala) 

Oh! Son of Devi, the Daughter of the Mountain-King ! 
Oh Merciful Lord, whose feet are worshipped by Indra and 
others 1 Protect me* O Lord with the elephant face! 

O GanSsa I Supreme Lord! Bestower of welfare! Oh 
Thou who art like a moon to the sea of sacred lore and who 
hath the serpent-king as his bangle! Oh devotee (son) of 
Siva, remover of obstacles, praised by Tyftgaraja !

GURULEKA” (Gowrl Manohari) 

Whatever might be one’s merits and qualities, without 
a Sad Guru, to cut and clear the deep forest of his mental 
torment, it will not be possible for him to acquire any know¬ 
ledge. Health, children, wealth, wife, relations, etc-, appear 
to disappear, thereby causing him distress. A guru alone 
will be able to protect one by administering, with love, the 
medicine of spiritual initiation and enlightenment to keep 
the mind free from attachment.

GATI NIVANI? (Todi)
lalgudi

Oh Mother! why this forgetfulness? After prolonged
search and being convinced that you are the sole refuge of
true devotees, I have come to you and fixed my faith in your
holy feet. Protect me now.
Is it possible even for Brahma to praise you adequately ?
O Goddess of the form of supreme bliss, residing at Sri-
tapastirtha! There is no equal to you on earth.
Am I not
yours? You have afforded protection to the kings of the
earth, who, seeing that they are not fully free from their
troubles, have joined together and approached you with
firm faith that you are the only saviour that fulfills desires.
It is not known what great merit people would have
acquired to live in this placee O Goddess, residing in Sri-
pura! I have sought your support. I cannot beg of others.
Pray, do not treat me with indifference. You and 77076 else
are my sole refuge. Do not put me off. Your glories are
infinite.
Oh Queen of the Universe! Goddess Maya, Mother of
the Gods! Listen. I have become single:minded in my
devotion through your grace. Why this compassionlessness
towards me? When I have you as my prop, it is undignified
for me to beg of people of this world for food and money.
Further, it is not in keeping with your glory.

GRAHABALAMEMI" (Révagupti) 


Of what avail is the strength of the planets? The real 
strength is that of Rama's blessing. What can the strength 
ot planets do to one who meditates upon the effulgent form 
of the Lord, and to the men of discernment like Tyágarája 
who are steeped in devotion to Hari whose power destroys 
the virulent inner enemies like Kama, the five great sins 
and the evil effects of the nine planets?

GITARTHAMU" (Surati) 

Oh Mind! Behold! Here in RAma you have both the 
full significance of the Git& (Vedanta) and the bliss of Music. 
This is well known to Hanumàn, who constantly wor- 
ships the blessed feet of Sitápati; he has a thorough mas- 
tery of the secret of the various creeds centering round 
Hari, Hara, Bhaskara (Sun), Time, Karma, etc.; he has taken 
the form of the foremost ` among monkeys; he is adored by 
Indra; he is the protector of Tyágar&ja and is ever happy 
in being all these;

 GARAVIMPA RADA“ (Ghantá) 


Could you not show some regard to me? Why don't 
you come to me when 1 call you? Should you not respond 
even asa formality? Am I not taunted by my own compeers ? 
Knowing that, are you not moved by compassion ? Is your 
response a matter to be disputed about? Have I not fixed 
my faith unshakably in you? Does not the babble of the 
child delight the parents? At this stage could you not say 
something (in appreciation) with your charming voice in 
regard to my songs on you? Is a screen to stand between 
us? A wife purchased for money, however beautiful she 
may be, cannot have such a lasting relationship with the 
husband as one who has been chosen for her virtues. I am 
afraid your indifference is getting chronic.

 GIRIPAI NELAKONNA " (Sahana) 
Unerringly I have seen Sri Rama, who is installed on 
the hill, with his attendants vieing with each other in fanning 
him with flower fans and otherwise serving him, and who 
promised to give me salvation after five days. My body was 
thrilled and tears of joy rolled down my cheeks and I 
merely mumbled, not being able to give expression to my 
thought.

NAADHOPAASANA

  NAADHOPAASANA From a nice blog by suresh https://sureshs65music.blogspot.com/2007/02/versatility-of-tyagaraja-part-2.html . Quote follows. . Lets turn to another subject which was close to Tyagaraja's heart. No prizes for guessing. Music. He probably was the only composer who had composed krithis on music itself. The famous ones include ' Sogasuga Mridanga Talamu ' in Sriranjani, ' Naada Suda Rasam ' in Aarabhi,  ' Nada Tanumanisham ' in Siddaranjani, ' Raga Sudha Rasa ' in Andholika,  " Sangeetha Sastra Gnanamu ' in Mukahri, ' Sitavara Sangita Gnanamu ' in Devaghandari, etc. . These krithis give an idea of what Tyagaraja felt about music. All these krithis are beautiful and it would take a genius immersed in music to come up with such krithis. Infact he says that only with ' Nadopasana ' (Begada) did Vishu, Brahma and Siva become great. . In the other great Shankarabaranam krithi, ' Swara Raga Sudha ' he says that...
