Song of the week ending 11, December 2009

Kanna nee enne marannuvo mukil
varna nee enne marunnuvo
Dannam perukkunnu kannane kaanaathonnum (kaanaanonnum)
thiriyaattoren hridi (mathi)

O Kanna! Have you forgotten me?
O One of the color of space (blue-colored)! Have you forgotten me?
My mind is getting heavy due to not seeing Krishna and I am not able to think/do anything

Engo maranju kalanjatho kannan
enne marannu nadannatho
kanner kadalileykenne nee
kanna mungaanayacchu maranjatho

Have you just vanished Kanna or are you walking around forgetting me?
O Kanna! Or is it that you have thrown me into an ocean of tears to be submerged?

Nin paada daasanaay ninnu njaan dinam
enni kazhiyunnu dayaanidhe
Kanna nee yen mana mandire varaanenthe
amaantham kripaa nidhe

O Dayanidhe (treasure of compassion)! I am counting days by living as servant of your feet
O Kripanidhe! Why is that you are taking time to come to my heart?

This is a very beautiful song set in Madhyamaavathi raga where a devotee pours out his heart as he has been waiting for the Lord to come to his heart and the Lord hasn't come yet. The song sung in my voice can be found here

AMMA's bhajan song
