Yendraikku Siva Krupai

Yendraikku Siva Krupai Varumo
By Neelakanda Sivan
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

[Sage Neelakanta Sivan was a great composer belonging to South Travancore and lived at the end of 19th century. Though a very great composer of Carnatic music Krithis, many people do not know about him. His Disciple Papanasam Sivan is however well known. www.carnaticcorner.com/articles/nilakanta_sivan.html as well as www.carnatica.net/neelakantasivan.htm give a detailed account of this composer and his Krithis. Though he is said to have composed over 2000 Krithis very few of them are now available.]

Pallavi

Yendraiku Shiva krupai varumo, Yezhai,
Yen mana chanchalam arumo

Anupallavi
Kandru kuralai kettu kaniyum pasu pol nokki,
Ondrukkum anchadhu yendran ulla thuyaram neeki

Charanam
Naan konda thuyarathai naan vendren yena katti,
Veen kanda irul yellam veliyakki, porul naati,
Yaan indru ul ilaippari, Ananda perum theeram,
Than nindra Neelakandan charanara vindham chera

English translation

Pallavi
When will I get the grace of Lord Shiva,
When will my mental wobbling be cut off

Anupallavi
You looked after me like a cow melting on seeing its calf,
And without any fear, removed all sorrows from my mind

Charanam
You showed me that you won over the sorrows I had,
And removed all the unnecessary darkness and made it meaningful,
And I relaxed myself within you and reached the great shore of happiness,
And reached the lotus like feet of Neelakanta who stood there.
