This tamil song, written by Shri. Gopala Krishna Barathi, was a contemporary of Shri. Thyagaraja Swamigal. The song has a nice history behind it. One fine morning, Shri. Barathi visited Thiruvayyaru and paid respects to Shri. Thyagaraja Swamigal. During the conversation, Shri. Thyaragaja queried whether he had written any kriti , set to Abogi raga. Before a great saint, Shri. Gopalakrishna Barathi felt sad that he did not think about that raga all along. He replied saying that I will just take a snana and come back to see you again. By the time, he finished his snana, the song was ready !
Lyrics :
Pallavi :
Sabhapathikku veru Deivam samanamaguma
Thillai Sabhapathikku veru Deivam samanamaguma
Anupallavi:
krupanidhi ivaraippola kidaikkumo indha tarani thanil
Charanam :
Oru tharam Shivachidambaram endru uraithal podume
Paragathikku veru punniyam panna venduma
Ariya pulaiyar muvar padham adaindhar endre puranam arindhu sollakkettom Gopalakrishnan padum
Thillai Sabapathikku veru Deivam samanamaguma

Dear Sir,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the notes. I dont understand the english notation as what is the difference between the upper case and lower case letters.
Thanks,
mathangi
Your notes are not very complicated, are you an a beginner violinist?
ReplyDeleteThanks very much, this proved to be very useful.
ReplyDeleteWhy should the notes to be complicated ? You mean Sangathis to be more complicated ? I dont understand why. Is it a matter of reachability to audience or complexity ???
ReplyDeleteThank you for the notes. Simple and easy for self learning. Gamakams can of course be learnt by trial and error slowly.
