Thiruppavai- Day22- AnGaN Maa Gnyaalatthu arasar

Raagam: Yaman KalyANi

When my son was barely a month old, this is the only song that would make him sleep. Being one of my most favourite raagaas, I thoroughly enjoy singing it! :)

In this song, ANDaaL describes the beauty of Krishna's eyes opening. She compares the Lord's eyes to blooming lotuses as bright as the Sun and Moon and asks him to shower his radiant blessings on us.

Thiruppavai- Day 19- Kutthu ViLakkeriya

Raagam: SahAnA

AaNDaaL beautifully describes why Nappinnai, the consort of Krishna, delays opening the doors. It is because she is so comfortable in the ivory-footed bed enjoying the company of the Lord that she cannot endure even a moment's separation!!!

Thiruppavai Day17- Ambarame ThaNNeere

Raagam: KalyaaNi

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Although I am technically uploading this Paasuram on the 17th Day of Maarghazhi, it is perhaps too late into the night in most places in the world. I was waiting and hoping for my throat to get slightly better and that has delayed this post. Very rough singing, I know. But didn't want to break the routine and hence sang as much as I could manage...

In this Paasuram, AaNDaal wakes up Krishna's parents, NandagOpan and Yashoda, and his brother, Balaraama...
