ഇതാണോ ത്യാഗരാജന്‍ ആരാധിക്കുന്ന രാമവിഗ്രഹം സ്വന്തം ജേഷ്ഠന്‍ കുളത്തിലെറിഞ്ഞപ്പോള്‍ വിഗ്രഹം കാണാതെ മൂപ്പര് പാടിയപ്പോള്‍ ജലാശയത്തില്‍ നിന്ന് പൊന്തിവന്നു എന്ന് പറയുന്ന കീര്‍ത്തനം?

I saw your comment. I cannot read Malayalam. However, I understood your question by transliterating your query to Devanagari. You wanted to know the names of Kritis which were sung by Sri Thyagaraja when the Rama (vigraha) was thrown by his elder his brother into River Kaveri and the kriti sung by him after finding it.
According to Brahma Sri TS Balakrishna Sastrigal - nEnendu vetukudurA - rAga karnATaka (when the vigraha was lost) and kanukoNTini - bilahari (when the vigraha was found). However, there is no such reference in the kritis themselves.

In the anupallavai, shouldn't last word be "pAdambulanu" instead of "padambulanu" as pAdamu means feet and padamu means words.

V Govindan said...

Dear Sambu,
'pada' in Sanskrit and Telugu also means 'foot'. Please refer to Telugu Dictionary - http://dsal.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/romadict.pl?page=704&table=brown&display=utf8
Further, whatever is given in the books cannot be changed by me unless there is something very obvious and misleading. Even in such cases, I have given suitable comments.
Best wishes,
V Govindan
