Sitapathe Naa Manasuna
I am now in the process of learning Sitapathe Naa Manasuna.
another Telgu kirthanam composed by Thygaraja.
Raagam: Kamas. this is same as brochevaari varura and so you can see a lot of similarity.
Talam: Aadhi
Parent raagam:harikambhoji (28th melakartha)
Aa: S M1 G3 M1 P D2 N2 S
Av: S N2 D2 P M1 G3 R2 S
Some movie songs in this raagam are chitiram pesudhadi from sabash meena and pazhamudir cholai from varusham 16.
The kamas raagam is said to represent the Shringara rasa….that is…it is mostly used to depict love, art, beauty and creation.
The lyrics of the song goes like this (from karnatik.com)
pallavi

Meaning :
Pallavi :
O Lord (“pathe”) of Seetha! I have (“yunnaanuraa”) placed my trust (“siddhaantamani”) in you.
Anupallavi :
The other day in the presence (“chentane”) of Anjaneya (“vaataatmaju”) and your other cherished devotees (“aadula”), you revealed (“jupi”) yourself to me (“varninchina”)
Charanam :
… you revealed (“jupi”) yourself to me (“varninchina”) in all your glory (“mahimalella nindaaru”) casting a benevolent (“premajuchi” or “pedda manasu jesi”) look at me (“naapai”), and assured me (“nee paluku”) that I have nothing to fear (“bhayametinanna maata”) in this (“ee”) world (“mahini”).
How wonderful and comforting! I have nothing to fear. I cherish those pregnant words like a treasure!
