kuRai onRum illai GovindhA! (I have no grievances!)

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Dearest brothers and sisters,

 

This is a Tamil song composed by Late RajAji(C.Rajagopalachari)

sung by Smt.M.S. An excellent song, a sweet voice and full of beautiful

meanings with great bhakti; As usual, my stupid crude translation to dilute

the essence of the song (but I have no other go)

kuRai onRum illai maRaimoorthy kaNNA!

kuRai onRum illai kaNNA!

kuRai onRum illai GOvindhA!(x2)

 

kaNNukkut theriyaamal niRkinRaai kaNNA

kaNNukkut theriyaamal ninRaalum enakku

kuRai onRum illai maRaimoorthy kaNNA!

 

vENdiyadhait thandhida vEnkatEsan enRirukka

maNivaNNA, malaiappA! GOvindhA, GovindhA

GovindhA! GovindhA!

GovindhA! GovindhA! GovindhA! GovindhA!

yenRum irundhida yEdhu kuRai enakku?

 

kuRai onRum illai maRai moorthy kaNNA!

kuRai onRum illai maRai moorthy kaNNA!

maNivaNNA, malaiappA! GOvindhA, GovindhA

GovindhA! GovindhA! GovindhA! GovindhA!

 

Meaning: "I have no grievances at all absolutely, vEdha nayakA! kaNNA! You

are not seen by mt eyes; Even though You are not seen by my naked eyes, I

have no grievances! (implies; I have, because I am not able to see you)

 

Whatever I wish, You are able to give me, Then, whatelse do I need? (except

You); Hence, I have no grievances; maNivaNNA! malai appA! GovindhA!

 

You are standing behind the curtain (imples stage; You are a soothra

dhaari); Only vEdic scholars and gnAnis can see You; Even then, I have no

grievances (implies, I have because I am not able to see You);

 

During these "kali" yugam, You have come and entered and stayed as an archA

form at TirumalA, kEsavA! No one can deny Your Existence, GovindhA!

When the Merciful, Goddess stays in Your chest all the time, why should I

have any "kuRai"? GovindhA!"
