Raghuvamsa sudha – Kadhanakuthuhalam

November 3, 2009 - Posted by vidhya

I am a little surprised that I have not written a post already on this song…because I thought I did….anyways…

This song was not known to me till my teacher taught me. I liked it instantly. Its more of a song generally played on instruments….its got playing of notes…
Short and sweet song…

you can listen to MS Subbalakhshmi sing it at http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=raghuvamsa+sudha&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=yhXwSpPRIdSOkQWtiIGeBw&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CA4QqwQwAA#

You can listen to a remixed version at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxQ1YjOneQQ by a local band (college band I guess)

Pallavi
O moon to the nectar-ocean of the Raghu lineage!
Sri Rama, lord of emperors!

Anupallavi
O wind (that drives away the) sin-cloud! Maker of prosperity!
O lion (terrifying the) king of asuras! Noble lord of the world!

charanam
O Destroyer of Parasurama’s conceit!
One praised by the amazed Rudra and others!
O Ornament to the solar dynasty!
O Doer of innumerable marvellous heroics! Lord of Venkata!
