Kana Vendamo


Kana Vendamo

By
Papanasam Sivan

Translated   by
P.R.Ramachander

Ragam Sri Ranjini
Tala Roopaka

Pallavi
Kana Vendamo , iru kannirukkum podinile,
Vinnuyar   gopuram Kana   Vendamo

Anupallavi
Veenil ulagai chuthi chuthi vandhaal ,
Medhini pothrum Chidambara nadanai

Charanam
1,Vaiyathile karu ppayul  kidandhu
Ullam naiya piravamal,iyan thirunadam

2.Ottai  chadalam odunga  vethu  yelumbu kootil,
Irundhu ottam pididikku mun  kana vendamo.

English translation

Palllavi
Should I  not see, before   I lose my eyes,
Should I not see   the tower   as high as the sky

Anupallavi
Instead of wandering  aimlessly  in the world
Should I not see  Lord of Chidambaram praised by the world

Charanam
1.Instead   of taking a birth painful  to the mind,
Lying  in the    womb in  the abdomen,
Should I not see the divine   dance of the lord.

2.Should I not see  the Lord before the soul,
Before the soul leaves  the body with holes
Leaving    only the  cage   made   of bones.

  2. What an outstanding song. My father performed the Sakkarai Pavadai sevai at Chidambaram, had Darshan of the Lord on 26th June 2016 and on 27th June, he was one with the Lord.
