 Krishna  Geetham

Song on Krishna

 

By

Shyamala koothoor

 

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

 


1.Pala vattam vannu  jnaan ninde  munnil

Parayuvaan  yere  kadhanavum  aayi

Parayuvaan marannu  poyende  Krishnaa

Paal nilaavoli  thookum Vadanam Kaanke

 

Several times  , I have  come  before you

To tell several things  , with a heavy  heart

But  Oh Krishna , I  forgot  to tell

When I saw your face which emits milk like  moon light

 

2, Ini  yenthu cheyyendu  yende  Kannaa

Ini  yennu  chollendu  yende  thapam

Iniyum  nee  mayakal  Kaattedukil

Iniyum  valanju  pokille jnaanum

 

My Krishna , what  should  I do now

When shall I tell  my  pain

If You still show   your illusions

Would I not  still  get  into  problems

 

3.Ariyumo Kanna  , nee  yende ullam

Ariyumo  Krishnaa , nee yende  Dukham

Anjali  kooppi  vanangidunnu

Abhayam  yekeedene  Yadhu  Nandanaa

 

Do  you know  Krishna  , about my mind

Do you know  Krishnaa  , my sorrow

With  folded  hands  I am saluting  you

Oh son of Yadhu dynasty  , Please  give  me protection

 

4.Japa  maalaa  yende kayyil  illaa Kannaa

Japa  manthrangal   naalanju  varikal chollaam

Jani mruthi dukhangal  theethidene

Janma  sayujyam  nalkeedene

 

Oh Krishna  , I do not have  in my hand chain of beads

I will chant  four or five  Manthras  of Chanting

Please put an end to sorrows  of birth and death

Please give with  this birth  , union  with you

Sri Dharma Sastha Sthuthi kadambam(Malayalam original, Tamil , My translation)

 Sri  Dharma Sastha  Sthuthi kadambam(Malayalam original, Tamil , My translation)

By

P.R.Ramachander



                         I came  across  the outer cover only  of this  book  some  20 years back ,I understood that  it was published in 1942 by one “Kambankudi Sundaram kolathu iyer who lived in Chelakkara  Puthan Madam.  The book was  published by one  SR SS Narayana Iyer, trivandrumSince  I was from Chelakkara  Village  , I started  searching for that book through appealing to  various friends

    One friend(I forgot  his name)  sent me  the     pages  of that  book  of 1972  edition. With the  help of my friend  , I made  in to a book and once  some 15 years  ago I announced in the face book  that I have this book. This book was republished by one K Parameshwara  Pillai, of Jayachandra  book depot and it had  106 pages

   People  started  asking for a copy  and  I sent  to many people who requested  me.I also  translated all the verses  of the book  in to english.

   Once  in the year 2020  , the son of  sri SS Narayana iyer  requested  the book and printed it in Tamil. He told that  it was being printed in tamil  as per wishes  of his father

 At  this time  a controversy  started  whether  Harivarasanam  , a prayer  in the Kulathu Iyer  book was written by him or by one Janaki Amma,  the daughter of one  of the  old iyer  priests  of Sabari Malai .There  was a huge  demand  for the  pdf of the book  I had

  Recently I saw  a lecture  about  the book and Harivaranam by one  Mr.Vivek .G.Mohan (https://youtu.be/8QdQUrdzclI?si=-EQyryGK9wOh15uI )

  In It he  is discussing about  authorship of  Harivarasanam  and consequently  about this book  He told that it was written in Tamil first.1920  and later in  1963  ,He said  pages  124-146 of the  book was missing.

Recently  I got a pdf  of an old tamil version of the book,it  is published by  one  Kamabangudi  Sundara iyer who is the son of  Kulathur  sundaram iyer ,It  clearly proves  that the tamil  version was not the first  book  published,
