Story of Ramayana - song in Malayalam

Story of Ramayana - song in Malayalam

I have never met nor would ever likely to meet a devotee like Sri P.V.V..Raghavan ( called fondly as Veeramani by all his friends and the entire Gramam of Puthucode) .His devotion was drenched in pure unalloyed BHakthi . There was never a trace of Ego in that great human being . I considered him as my elder brother rather than a co-brother.). All his bhakthi to his Goddess Annapurneswari and to his personal God Guruvayurappan was channelized through devotion drenched songs in Malayalam. Whenever he visited any temple, with tears flowing from his eyes , he used to sing about that God. Once I happened to hear him sing a Malayalam song which summarized Ramayana . I requested to him to write it in Malayalam and give it to me . On reaching Bangalore I did translate it and put it in my blog. About 6 months back he passed away at the ripe old age of 95 leaving all of us who were his admirers.. We felt as if a leading light of devotion has disappeared from our lives. Rama Navami of this year is only a few days away . I am sure that they great human being must be entertaining His Goddess Annapurneswari and his Lord Guruvayurappan by his devotion filled songs . This Ramayana in malayalam that he used to sing has been recorded by one of his sons and can be heard by clicking

Sri mukthi sthala  devi  kesadhi padha  varnanam

(the description from head  to feet of Bhagawathi of Mukthi Sthala)

 

By

Meppathur Narayana  Bhatathiri

 

Translated  by

P.R.pRamachander

 

(Sri Bhatathiri is known to have got completely cured of the disease that he got from his Guru Sri Achyutha Pisharody by singing Narayaneeyam. But it seems still he was mentally depressed. Then God appeared in his dream and commanded him to write a work praising the feet of Goddess Bhavani  who is enshrined in the temple of Mukthipuri (called Mukkolakka in Malayalam). He did this and became normal. It is written that he spent his old age in Mukthipur. Complete   detail of this great  temple is given  in http://rajathathaskeralatemples.blogspot.com/2010/02/mukkuthala-bhagawathy.html  by me  .

   But inpite of composing the great work , he was not satisfied and wrote this head to feet description of that goddess .

    I was not aware  of  this great work  and came to know of it from Tamil post with meaning in face book by  by my friend Smt  .anandi Lakshmi.  Thanks to her)

11.Avarthaarbham  amandha shobham  amalam , nimnam   cha naabhi  balam

Kanchi Dhama nibadha rathna vilasatgh sindhoora   varnamsukam

Vistheernam  rasanaapadham kanakarambha bhavuru  komalou

Ooru charu tharou cha Devi  kalaye Mukthisthalasthe   Shive

 

OH goddess  Parvathi of muthi sthalam , I meditate  on your  naval  cavity

Which is sloping down , shines brightly , without defects and covered,

By a  Kanchi silk of red colour, which is tied by a shining girdle ,

And Your thighs  which are golden and are like the pseudo  stem of banana

 

12.Janu dhwandham, ibhendra kumbha  sushamss chauram    cha  jangaa yugam

Chetho janma nishanga saurabha haram vrutham cha naathyayatham

Koormaabhi prapadham cha devi, kalaye mukthisthalasthe shive

 

Oh Goddess  Parvathi of  Mukthi sthalam, I meditate  on your twin knees

Which steal the beauty of temple’s best  elephant and your  pair of legs

Which rob away the perfume  of Manmatha, which are  not too long

And anklets worn over them with shining gems  and making  pretty sounds

 

13.Snigdha  swacha tharangulidalath , athichaayaam , virajannakha

Praaleyamsu mariachi dhootha vinamaththapandha karoth  karam

Padabjam  thava  bhavaayami varadhe Mukthisthalasthe shive

 

Oh  Goddess Parvathi of  Mukthisthala , who grants us   boons, I meditate,

On your sticky and clean  fingers of the feet, which shine with 

Radiant   finger nails and resemble the moon and dispel  darkness of misery

And  belong to your lotus like feet and  resemble  the  kalpaka tree

 

14.Bakthaanaam hrudayeshu bhoori krupayaa  nyastham thadh andargatham,

Gaadam   thapathamo nirasya sisiree kurvan  prakasadhikam

Aanandamrutha vaarshika,  cha  varadhe yath sevyamaanambudhais-

Thathe  pada  sarojam  amba kalaye mukthisthalasthe   shive

 

Oh goddess parvathi  of Mukthisthala, Imeditate on your lotus like feet

Which is placed due to mercy  on the hearts of her devotees,

So that   their dark pain is driven out, making them  cool and filled with light

And  the  nectar  of bliss  and boons  is showered on those wise men who  serve you.

 

15.Yath paamsum  kamalasana   prabruthayo  devaa  muneendraas thadhaa

Vodum moordhni  na   kurvathe  yatha dhiya kim kim thapo dushkaram

Thwad padambujam  aana thasya  sathatham  dheenasya may masthake

Kojan  noopuram   arpayaamba   sadhayam  , Mukthisthalasthe   shive

 

Oh Goddess  Parvathi of Mukthisthala,, your lotus like feet   tied with jingling  anklets

Is keept  on hear of poor person like me  , who worships you always, though

Lord Brahma     and great sages as well as devas  practice difficult penance

For receiving the dust of    your   feet on    their heads.

 

16.Raja chaithra kulothbhavasya suradho   yath sevayaa  abhoon  manu

Vaisya    so api  samadhiraapa mathiomaan  jnanam parair durlabham

Yoshaa moorthiramoomuhath smara ripum   devo api narayanas-

Thathe pada sarojam amba   kalaye Mukthisthalasthe    shive

 

Oh Goddess  Parvathi of Mukthisthala, Oh mother   I  meditate on your lotus feet,

By worshipping which king born in chaithra   dynasty    became the  manu

Samadhi the vaisya attained wisdom    which is difficult to attain  by  even,

Very  great persons and Narayana put on form of woman to attract  lord Shiva

 

Nithyam   yena  shivanga varnanam   idham stotram  dwayeshu  sandhyayo

Padhyai   shodasabhi   krutham  kruthaadhiyaa   marthyena   sankeerthayathe

Thasya  preetha manaa  paresa mahishi thwam devi    thapa thrayan

Nirdhadhooyaasu vidhehi  Bakthim   mukthistlasthe shive

 

Oh goddess  Parvathi of  Mukthistala   , daily  if one chants  at dawn and dusk,

This prayer of sixteen verses    which describes  the limbs   of consort of Shiva

You would become pleased with him   and remove  the sufferings of body  ,

Mind and soul and  would grant him  very great  devotion to you
