Guru Raghavendram – Kambhoji

One of the keerthanams that I have long forgotten is “Guru Raghavendram anisham bhaje”. I learnt this from one of my first teachers. It has all gone in the thin air by now. I do not remember how to sing the anupallavi charanam anymore.

However, I remember that I used to like this song a lot. It is also composed in a very nice raagam. 

 Song: Guru Raghavendram
Raagam: Kambhoji
Aa: S R2 G3 M1 P D2 S
Av: S N2 D2 P M1 G3 R2 S N3. P. D2. S
Parent raagam: Harikambhoji (28th melakartha)
Talam: Adi
Composer: Mysore Vasudevacharya 

I have tried to put down the lyrics by myself from my book. In case there are any mistakes please feel free to correct me.

 Pallavi:

Guru Raghavendram anisham bhaje
Karunakaram kalimalaharam

Anupallavi:

Sharanagatha vanathathparam
Paravasudeva chanaparam 

Charanam:

Paramadhbhutha mitha sath charitham
Dhara haasa shobhitha bhavya vakthram
Para thathwamidhamagresaram
vara gaana kallabdhi sudhakaram
