What is the use of mere bodily strength and high birth ?

As the inevitable result of Rama Bhakti, a man natuarlly

acquires all siddhis.

Crows and fish always dive into water: Can it be taken

as sacred morning ablution ?

Cranes keep their eyes shut. Is it divine meditation ?

Goats feed on patra (sacred leaves, Tulasi ete.) Is it

indicative of devout fast?

Birds soar high: Can they compare with the Sun and

‘the Moon?

If ordinary people in Sadhus’ garb happen to be in a

cave, can they be taken to be really great sages ?

Can monkeys in the forest be taken as leading merito»

rious Vanavásam (hermit's life) ?

If beggars in the garb of Saivite devotees (Jangams) are

silent, can they bs taken as genuine Mounis?

If children go about uncovered, could they be taken as

Digambaras, Sadhus who have abandoned even clothing?

The devotion of the real Bhaktas of Sri Rama, the

saviour of Tyágarája, is acceptable to all people as a current

coin.

KUVALAYA DALA NAYANA" (Natakuranji)

Oh Lotus-eyed one! Protect me. I have been passion-

ately loving you. Where am I to go? I stand meditating

on your bewitching face and pining; but you won't look

at me. What virtue is this? Though knowing my mind

well, you have forgotten me, but still you pretend to be

remembering me. Is it due to fear of Kali (this iron

age) that you don’t come down to the Earth ? Or is it that

you are a God devoid of glory? I have been singing

constantly with all my heart that you are supreme among

Devas, I do not know other religions. I have done Bhajana

with a pining heart. I have positively given up the world

(and if you don't show your grace to me) will you not earn

the bad name of being meritless ? Give me wisdom, stand

by TyAgarAja and accept his worship.

Don't you possess a little amount of kindness? Charity begins at home. Is it not? Oh Rama, shed your lethargy and show your love.

| If you possess wealth, let it be with you only. I implore for your grace. I am not aware of your mysterious ways.

I believed that you are my king. I heard the story of Gajendra the king of elephants. I can't beg from characterless people. Tyagaraja earned a good name that he is yours.

https://karnatik.com/c1813.shtml

Meaning:

Eternal salutations to Shri Raaghava, worshipped by sage Shuka. He is ever closely related to all who have none else to depend on, ocean of mercy that he is. He eliminates the sins of devotees as the sun dispels darkness. He is a patron of worthy poets. He grants the wishes of genuine devotees, just as the Kalpaka tree does. He is mentor of gods like Brahma, Shiva, and other celestials. He is concerned with the welfare of innocent and pious devotees. He is the destroyer of Raakshasaas. He is infinitely wise. He confers health, longevity, and prosperity on worthy followers. He lies on the snake AadisEsha and is fond of fresh butter. He is the sole witness of all that happens in the universe. With hands long and powerful like the trunk of a royal elephant, he flung the mighty Subaahu to the distant ocean by a single arrow. He is the protector of AadisEsha and Tyaagaraaja.

BROCHUVAREVARE" (Sriranjani)

Who is there that will protect people with love like you?

Oh Raghupati! Lord oí the whole Universe, the best among

men !

Who would have, out of compassion, made a gift of

Lanka to Vibhishana and blessed him to the delight of

Devas as you did ?

Who would have killed Vali with one arrow and made

Sugriva the king ?

Who would have accompanied Viswümitra to see his

Yaga and killed there the cruel Rakshasas, like Máricha?

Who would have taken by the hand and protected

Tyágaràja who had been struggling, not knowing the

means by which to cross the ocean of Samsara ?

Worship the hero of the Raghus. the king of kings who

has blessed Tyagaraja with boons; give up greed and

unworthy desires; do not indulge in slander of others;

and control your five senses, deeming worldly happiness

as nothing but poison. Understand that all things will

not serve your purpose, but go their own way,

knocking about hither and thither. Do not engage

yourself in other distracting work- Do not put on false

garbs to deceive Ihe world, like the proverbial tiger in

cow's skin. Abandon all mischievous pursuits. Let the

crossing of the ocean of Samsara be your sole aim. Take

delight in doing good deeds. Surrender all your actions to

the Lord. Join the company of true devotees and learn

the path of devotion. Flave always in your mind Sri Rama,

who is free from Maya» and worship him. Subjugate lust

and other inner enemies and achieve your purpose.

KV Narayanaswamy

https://youtu.be/NQ7fBsOAs7w?si=5Z6JpLnQMJlhivi9

Meaning:

Who else is there to protect us but you? O Guardian of sacrifices, Lord of SIta! A halo of festive grandeur ever characterizes you. How long am I to await your mercy? Can't you listen to my woes? Are you not the destroyer of Mura? Can't you talk to me compassionately? Is this of merit? Are you inimical towards me? Am I a stranger? Is it proper not to give me Darshana? Why this disregard towards me? Do you hate me? One with a face like the full moon, I loved only you. One adorned by men of repute, protect me. Lord of SrI! Destroyer of enemies! You are not aware of my desire. One worshipped by Shiva. Protector of celestials. Do you not have the time? Self-effulgent one. O King! Why this stiffness in you? I can bear it no longer. Why you play tricks on me? Why the hesitation to protect me? Are you not the Kalpaka tree, which grants all desires?

C.Ramanujachari

Who is equal to one who chants the name of Hari,

driving out of the mind various thoughts that arise, main-

taining steady devotion,

casting away discordant religious

differences,

earnestly longing and pining,

installing the holy feet of Lord Hari in the heart, regarding them as

coveted wealth as sage Suka and other great saints did,

treating as the snake's poison the company of those who do

not appreciate the happiness above mentioned, and treating

as real wealth conversation with genuine devotees and

getting transported to ecstacy on meditating on the names

of one adored by TyAgaraya.

Oh Mind! the happiness that Rama Nima. gives to one is

positively higher than the pleasure which a man of intense thirst derives on drink-ing water,

the pleasure which a man of dire poverty derives on coming

by a treasure-chest,

the pleasure which people suffering from unbearable

drought derive when they get nectar-like water in

the well,

the pleasure which a helpless man in fright derives when

he acquires courage,

.the pleasure which a hungry man derives when he gets a

sumptuous feast

the pleasure which one derives in meditating upon Sri

Rama, the bestower of prosperity,

the pleasure which a man in an undesirable angry mood

derives when he calms down;

the pleasure which an utterly ignorant man derives when

he suddenly acquires proficiency in all branches

of knowledge,

the pleasure which a true devotee of Rama with proficiency

in music derives

the pleasure which peple, without associating with ignorant

secular-minded people, derive from spiritual experience,

the pleasure which one derives after a successful Vedantic

inquiry,

the bliss which one derives from realization of Nirguna Para-

Brahma,

the happiness which one derives from worship, free from

taint of RAjasic and Tamasic gunas, and

the happiness which was vouchsafed to Lord Siva. This

fact is testified to by Lord Siva himself and sages like

Valmiki, Parvati and Hanuman.

Dr. M. Balamuralikrishna

Meaning:

pallavi: O mind! Engage yourself constantly in the singing the glory of Rama.

He is the mime of all good things.

He is the sun, which dispels the darkness of ignorance.

He is praised by Shiva who was worshipped by Ravana, no less a person of the mighty Rakshasa king, with a hundred heads.

He is an inexhaustible treasure from which devotees can obtain whatever they desire.

He is the protector of the devotees, praised by Kapali-the Paramashiva, virtuous; one who prevailed as the God of death and destroyed the three Rakshasas who, roaming about in their flying fortresses, caused untold miseries to devas and sages.

He is beautiful and a warrior, prop of Tyagaraja, matchless wielder of His bow and arrows, Abode of the virtues.

He is the float, which enables devotees to cross this vale of sorrow.

Father of Brahma, intimate friend of Hanuman, Spouse of the revered Janaki.

He has the Sun and the Moon as his eyes, and He is intimate to Tyagaraja

https://youtu.be/1gRlc7dm-Ac?si=qN9Ci9_sNw_svqAb

.Meaning:

O Ocean of Mercy, Shri Rama of charming face! the repository of excellent virtues! You are the whole Universe; how then could I blame it (i.e any part of it)?

The realization of true Bhaktas is in one way, while the method adopted by the people, who do not know the truth about you, is in another direction.

Will people lovingly chant your holy name and spend their time in meditating upon you?

Will people offer unto you the merit (Punya) they have acquired?

Will they understand your nature and live accordingly?

Will they heartily worship you and frequently meditate on you?

Will they pant for a direct darshana of you? Will they not gloat in joy even if they come into possession of the nine treasures?

Will they say and believe that you are immanent in all things and exult in realizing that they are identical with you yourself?

Will they get together, speaking of you among themselves? Will they see the Lord, the redeemer from Samsara?

Oh Rama! Why do you tarry? Should you show all

enmity to me? You won't give up your tricks. I have not

asked you for your wealth. I have no desire for this world,

which is full of deceit. Oh Protector of Devotees! I have

not any other refuge than you. Who is there equal to you

in this world ? Iam caught in your net. I cannot give up

my desire for you. Does it befit you to forget me ? To forsake

me isa sin. Can you have the mind to doso? Give me your hand !

Take me across the ocean of Samsára and give me salvation.

THYAGARAJA KMEERTHANAMS

C.RAGAVACHARI

Oh Lord of Sita ! I do not rely on (wealth like) money

and horses which are transient. I shall certainly not beg of

rich men, flattering them with matchless (musical) composi¬

tions in their praise. I shall not frequent places which are

infested with greedy men who are possessed by the devils

of desire and attachment.

I am caught in your grip, of my own accord. I do not

know why you are persisting in your niggardliness. People

in this world do not stand the sight of others prospering.

It is not known whether this is due to their fate or to your

Mftya. They rush to despicable activities, but never

apply their mind to tasks which will uplift them. Why

associate with people who do not realize that everything

happens in this world according to one's own past karma ?

Vouchsafe that your holy name may always be on my lips.

Who else is there for me ? Oh RAghava ! Let me always seek

the company of those who delight in the glorious story of

Sri Ramachandra- Let my eyes be fixed upon your

refined beauty and my heart will be transported with joy.

When shall I behold those holy feet –

which, humbly, went behind sage viSvAmitra?

which, afterwards, transformed stone into woman - ahalyA?

which broke Lord Siva’s heavy bow?

which were washed with milk by King janaka?

When shall I behold those hands –

which, lovingly, tied mangaLa sUtra to sItA?

which, angrily, seized the power of paraSu rAma’s bow?

which, having gone to the forest, slayed virAdha?

which, finding all those ascetics, bestowed to them freedom from fear?

When shall I behold that arrow/missle –

which, itself, protected crow demon?

which, in a moment, pulverised large number of chariots?

which slayed very strong vAli?

which sub-dued the overweening pride of that Lord of Oceans?

When shall I behold those eyes/sight –

which, benevolently, looked at vibhIshaNa?

which, having slayed rAvaNa, revived the poor monkeys (slain/maimed in the battle)?

which, pleasingly, looked at sugrIva?

which always ensured lankA’s prosperity?

When shall I behold –

that elegance of shining on the magnificent pushpaka chariot?

that spectacle of finding bharata and coming with him holding his hands?

that splendour of His being seated on the golden throne?

that decoration of assembly of eminent sages and kings in His court?

the manner in which Siva and other great deities extolled Him?

When shall I behold Him well, soonest –

who is praised in Agamas,

who is the root of Bliss,

who is the beloved of great bhAgavatas,

who is ever-changeless,

who reclines in the (milk) ocean and

who is the Ocean of Mercy?

When shall I expect Him to come?

DHARMATMA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRhAd2T5ROE

While I am appealing to you as a DharmAtma, is it right

for you to reply dubiously ?

Having earned the reputation of being the redeemer of

the fallen, is it good on your part not to duly realise its

implication ?

When I seek your protection as a forlorn one, is it

proper for you to ba unfavourably disposed ?

When I am eagerly desiring to have ten thousand eyes

to see and enjoy your glorious form, is it right on your part

that you should mortify me by denying it? I am guileless

and have sought refuge in your blessed feet; 18 it fair that

you should find fault with me ?

Why vex me with your trickery ? Is it fair that you

should not come to my succour ?

I appealed to you to make good your past promises ; is

it proper that you should keep silent ? Is it fair that you

should forget me ?

protection and speak to me lovingly ? Know this quickly.

Protect me, Oh auspicious Rama, of sanctifying excel-

lences! Youare the prop of my life; youare the fruit of

my penance, the strength of my body, the wealth of my

family, the source of my auspiciousness, the bliss of my

mind, the source of my happiness, my joy, the charming

dress that I put on; the captivator of my heart; my beauty ;

my blessedness; my dispassion; my life; my youth; the

essence of the Vedas and the Agamas ; beyond the reach of

the Rakshasas; the prop ofthe three worlds; my pearl

necklace; the God of Gods; the negation of the wicked;

the supreme Brahman; the destroyer of sins; beyond con-

ception; divine incarnation; the highest; beyond Maya;

hidden in the ocean ; the friend of TyAagaraja:

O Lord nArAyaNa! O Lord hari! O Consort of sItA! O Vanquisher of demon dUshaNa! O Terror of those who slander others! O Virtuous One well-praised by vibhIshaNa! O Lord rAghava! O Lord praised by indra! O Lord nArAyaNa who has garuDa as carriage! O Lord abiding in the heart of vAlmIki! O Protector of the humble! O Destroyer of demons! O Lord nArAyaNa who blossoms the heart of this tyAgarAja!

I shall not trust wealth and possessions which are transitory; never!

I shall not seek multi-millionaires and I shall, definitely, not beg by selling the gift of speech (by extolling them).

Why should I frequent those places where rich people. having greed of fiendish frenzy, are tended? (OR .. having greed and fiendish frenzy are tended).

I got caught in Your hands within myself; (even then) I do not know why You would not leave Your niggardliness (in showing compassion).

In this World, people would not tolerate others’ fortune; I do not know whether it is so ordained or due to Your mAyA.

People would undertake such tasks which are to be abhorred; they wouldn’t think of such tasks leading to redemption.

Why associate with those mortals who do not realise that we only reap here results of what we did in the past?

Let my tongue always utter Your names only; who else is there?

I shall seek friendship of those who enjoy rAmAyaNa.

Let my sight behold Your elegance only.

RAMA EVA DAIVATAM” (Balahamsa)

Rama aloneis my God. He is the destroyer of the

mental distress of devotees.

Gist

Only Lord SrI rAma – the most distinguished of raghu dynasty - is God for me.

Only Lord SrI rAma -

who is free from desires, delusion and arrogance,

the Bestower of auspicious results to the pure hearted,

the redeemer of ahalyA cursed by sage gautama – her husband,

the Consort of sItA who bestows boons to those who supplicate to Him,

the Reliever of distress of the minds of devotees,

the Competent One who grants good fortune,

the Moon in the midst of multitude of stars called celestials,

the Lion to the elephants called demons mura and naraka,

the Overlord of the Trinity – hari, brahmA and Siva,

who has splendour of Sun,

the Lord resident in the heart of this tyAgarAja,

the Great Lord reclining on the couch of the SEsha

- is God for me.

PÁHI RAMA DUTA” (Vasanta Varali)

Oh Ràma's Messenger! Bless me. You have crossed

the ocean and killed Ravana’s son, (Akshayakumara) Your

lotus-like face shines like the fully risen sun. You are as

brilliant as myriad suns. You hold the blessed feet of Sri

Rama in your hands. You are the wind to disperse the

cloud of the sins of the iron age. You are like Agastya to

the ocean of dreaded RAakshasas. You always carry out

(successfully) whatever task is assigned to you. Oh! Dweller

under the Párijàta tree! You move as fast as the wind.

You conquer evil spirits by the strength of your feet. You

are the redeemer of sinners. You are well-versed in

the Vedas and SAstras. You are the best of beings; you

are the pure-minded- You are full-of compassion. You

have a body which resembles in hue Mount Meru. You

are the foremost among the Lord’s devotees. You are a

giver of boons.

RAMA SITA RAMA” (Balahamsa)

Oh Sitä Rama! My mind feels as though snakes had

coiled round it. Pray, have mercy on me and take me by

the hand. Just as a chaste wife delights in serving her Lord,

my mind rejoices to celebrate your festivities. Pray get

them done by TyaAgardja and be happy. Just as a

creeper twines round Kalpa tree, my mind is inseparably

attached to you and will not leave you even for ages. This

is the nature of Advaitic realization, real detachment,

and salvation itself. This is the essence of the Vedas.

NATHA BROVAVE”

(Bhairavi)

Oh Ragunatha! Protect me: Have the words of Valmiki

who has described you as one of sweet disposition, proved

false ? You were moved with compassion at the sight of the

fear-stricken sages and vouchsafed to them protection, and

you have evinced affectionate solicitude for true devotees.

I pray for your showing me the beautiful sight of your

triumphant re-entry into Ayodhya, after conquering count-

less enemies.

I pray for your showing me your endearing arm which

clasped Bharata to your bosom with a melting heart:

When the women of the place (Ayodhya) charmed with

your radiant face approached you, you treated them as your

own daughters, Oh matchless one! Don't forget me.
