JANTA VARiSAI RAMAYANAM Translation


JANTA VARiSAI RAMAYANAM
Ramayana  with  progression  of notes

By Dr. Saroja Ramanujam


Note the English  translation does’nt   follow Janta Varisai. The original text   is given after my translation

(Though Jantai varisai  is applicable to the basic composition(in this case  in Tamil) , I wanted to add one more  Ramayana translation  to my efforts.The author is a very great scholar and she herself  could have  translated it much better.My humble pranams  to her.I am giving her text  after my translation though her text only  follows the Janta Vaisai)

Translated by

Sri rama chari thame para mapa vaname
Dhasa ratha rama nadi pani vai mana me
Ss rr gg mm rr gg mm pp
Continuing as Kaushika, destroying all clans  of asuras
Blessed  Ahalya, broke   the bow  of Lord Shiva
Married Sita, won over  Parasurama
Reached Ayodhya, gave up  crown of the king, to obey,
The words of  father went  , the Sitarama
Ss rr gg rr ss rr gg mm
Requested  and got Paduka(slippers), with Bharatha  ruling
When sita Saw the deer of illusion in Panchavati and requested for it
The  lord followed Mareechaand later  Lakshmana  alsoi followed,
The  asura who came in deceit, carried   away  Sita
Searching Sita and roaming, Hanuman who travelled South
Crossed  the very deep ocean, in spite of searching all asura homes,
He could not see  Sita and when his mind was dejected
And with great  emotion he chanted the name of Rama, we will tell about its greatness
ss rr g s r g ss rr gg mm
In the middle of asoka  forest, surrounded by   Asura  women,
And drowned  in Sorrow was Sita   and seeing her
He gave her  the ring, he made  the mother’s mind cool,
He received the  head brooch given by her, and killed  the asuras,
Saw the  ten headed one, he set  fire to Lanka
And that Maruthi   returned back by way of the sky
Seeing Rama and told him  about welfare  of the Goddess
Hearing that, and in the  middle of the ocean,
He constructed the bridge, entered Lanka and destroyed,
The Ravana’s pride, and we will the greatness of the war he fought
Ssr Ssr sr ss rr gg mm
Angadha   was sent as an emissary and saw the king  of  Rakshasas
And told the greatness  of Rama so that his adamancy   was lost
The younger brother who knew Dharrma Vibheeshana   fgave him advice
In spite of hearing loosing his brain, Ravana   chided  him,,
And Vibheeshana   who left him approached  Rama
And stood there  asking “Protect me  , protect me”
I will protect all those  who say “I surrender”
Said Raghava and sugreeva   brought him,
After  breaking Ravana’s “basic army”and klilled him,
And how can we say  the greatness  of Raghava  who did it
ss mm gg rr ss rr gg mm
Climbing the Pushpaka Vimana and travelled  towards  Ayodhya
To make the mind of Bharatha  who was expecting him peaceful
Sent Hanuman to go first and inform him the   good news
And along with Lakshmana and Sita   he reached  Ayodhya
For making friends happy   and on the throne,
He sat with Vasishta   crowning himand Hanuman catching his feet
With angatha carrying the royal sword, with younger brothers fanning him
And with devas   and sages together  singing his prayers
With all human being with happiness   celebrate
Please  see the greatness  of the crowning  of Sri Rama

Introduction

From Chinmaya  mission  web site




“CHINMAYA SWARANJALI – The Music wing of Chinmaya Mission
Swara to Ishwara
The origin of music lies in the very beginning of life itself! In the vast orchestra of Mother Nature, our great sages laid the foundations of our classical music. Great poet-saints elevated our music to the highest realms of devotion and purity and entered the realm of Life divine through music.Bhajans and kirtans expressing divine glories have the capacity to make us pause and experience a few moments of serenity and peace.
In fact, in Swami Chinmayananda’s words, “Music is an ornamentation of Silence” and should be used by seekers to experience the silence within, in our quest towards “Oneness” with our Divine Self.”
About Swaranjali
Chinmaya Swaranjali, the music wing of the Chinmaya Mission, was formed by a group of musicians inspired by Swami Tejomayananda. Chinmaya Swaranjali is dedicated towards exploring the magical and wonderful world of devotional and classical music and also to spreading this joy and devotion.”

I have downloaded the lyrics of Swaranjali songs of 2019-20   from CMS   seattle   web site. I found that the songs chosen by them were  mostly Sanskrit but tamil., Malayalam, Hindi  and Marathi   songs   had also been included. I felt  that  if this great treasure  is  translated it would be  a great contribution.I am presenting my translation

How can salvation come in to your mind   without knowledge
Sacrifice lies and deceit, do service  to Guruji
Take the feet of Sadguru and play    in this  ground

Jaya Guru

Jaya  Guru omkaraa jaya jaya
SAdguru omkara om

Hara hara hara hara  mahadeva

Hail Guru om, hail, hail

Filled   with contradictory   thoughts
Drive away  the darkness  of your mind

I should never throw away   this love
Which is pervaded with joy and kindness is the teaching  of birth death cycle

Vaishnava  Janatho

Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re,
Para Duhkhe Upakāra Kare To Ye
Mana Abhimāna Na Āne Re
Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re

He and he alone is the man of God,
Who knows the pain and misery of others,
Who tries to help others in distress,
And who does not have pride in his mind.

Sakala Loka Mā Sahune Vande,
Nindā Na Kare Kenī Re,
Vāca Kācha Mana Niścala Rākhe,
Dhana Dhana Jananī Tenī Re
Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re

He and he alone is the man of God,
Who respects and salutes all,
Who does not talk ill of others,
Who keeps his mind pure in words and action,
And whose mother is considered blessed by all. 

Sama-Drishthi Ne Trishnā Tyāgī,
Para-Strī Jene Māta Re,
Jihvā Thakī Asatya Na Bole,
Para-Dhana Nava Jhāle Hātha Re
Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re

He and he alone is the man of God,
Who views everybody as equal,
Who considers other women as his mother,
Who never tells lies all his life,
And who never yearns for other’s wealth. 

Moha Māyā Vyāpe Nahi Jene,
Dridha-Vairāgya Jenā Manamā Re,
Rāma-Nāma Śhu Tālī Re Lāgī,
Sakala Tīratha Tenā Tanamā Re
Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re

He and he alone is the man of God,
Who never has any attachments,
Who is strongly detached to worldly pleasures,
Who is addicted to remembering his God,
And in whose mind are all the holy places of the world. 

Vana-Lobhī Ne Kapata-Rahita Chhe,
Kāma Krodha Nivāryā Re,
Bhane Narasaiyo Tenu Darasana Karatā,
Kula Ekotera Tāryā Re
Vaishnava Jana To, Tene Kahiye Je
Peed Paraayi Jaane Re

.
He and he alone is the man of God,
Who has no greed and deceit in his mind,
Who has forsaken all pleasures and anger,
And whose sight is thirsted for by Narasi the poet,
For the entire family gets salvation on seeing him.


Maithreem Bhajatha

With friendship please serve,
And conquer all the hearts,
Please think that others are like you,
Please forsake war for ever,
Please forsake competition for ever,
Please forsake force to get,
Some one else’s property,
For mother earth is a wish giving animal,
And God our father is most merciful,
Restrain, donate and be kind,
To all the people of this world.
Let all the people, live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss.

Shanthi nilava vendum (Tamil)

Shanthi nilava vendum , ulagile,
Athma shakthi onga vendum

Gandhi mahathma kattalai adhuve,
Karunai orumai, kadir oli parvai

Kodumai cheythathor manam athu thirunda,
Nargunam athu pugattiduvom,
Madamai, acham aruppom,makkalin,
Masila nallozhukkam valarppom.

Dhidam tharum ahimsa yogi naam,
Tandai athmanandam perave ,
Kadamai maravom , avar kadan theerpom,
Kalakkamindri aram valappom endrum

Peace should prevail in this world,
The strength of the soul should increase.

This is the order of the great Gandhi,
Mercy, unity and clear sight

 To correct the mind that did evil,
We would teach them good character,
We would cut away foolishness and fear,
And nurture good stainless character of people.

We are practitioners of ahimsa which gives strength,
For our father (Gandhi) to get divine joy,
We would not forget our duty; we would repay his debts,
And always nurture dharma with out any fear.

New year song

Kshanam pratheekshanam ya navam navam
Thascha  sundaram  sacha thachaivam

Varsha nuthanam  they  shubham mudhaan,
Utharotharam bhavathu   sidhidham

Every second we are  waiting  for the  newer and newer year
It is pretty  and it is truly   sweet
The new year should  bring auspicious joy,
And lead to  more   and more attainment
Lead to attainment
