Iraamaanusa nooRRanthAthi- 104th verse- Though you have shown the Lord's Lotus Feet, I do seek to sing in praise of Your kalyANa guNAs alone!

[Guest guest]

SrI:

SrImathE Ramanujaya namah:

 

Dearest all

 

The jnanAm given by Ramanuja is crystal clear; her,

further, AmudhanAr explains as to what he prays for.

 

kaiyiR kaniyennak kaNNanaik kaattith tharilum,unRan

meyyiR piRangiya cheeranRi vENtilan yaan,nirayath

thoyyil kitakkilum chOthiviN chErilum ivvaruLn^ee

cheyyil tharippan iraamaa Nnucha!en chezungoNtalE! 104

 

Like the dense dark clouds the ParamOdhArar – the most

benevolent acharyan, the most merciful, Parama dhayALu

Ramanuja! Though you have granted us the Lord’s lotus

Feet himself so easily accessible for us and so easily

attainable due to your dayA on us, I do not seek to

sing in praise of anything else except your kalyANa

guNAs and your dhivya sowndharyam. You need to bless

me for the same only. And if I were blessed with that,

regardless of whether I am in this dirty trench or in

the most blissful Srivaikuntam, or wherever it may be;

I would stand firm. Else, wherever I am, I won’t

survive.

 

raamanuja- EmperumAnArE!

en sezhu koNdalE – my most endearing dark hued rainy

laden cloud like Parama dhayALu!

kaNNanai – that most beautiful Lord Kutti KaNNan

kayil kani yenna – is brought to me so easily

attainable [by your grace]

kaatti thairulum- even if Kutti KaNNan is shown and

given to me by you straightaway by yourself [in front

of my eyes right now]

unthan meyyil piRangiya seer anRi yaan vENdilan- other

than Your kalyANa guNas that glow in you and the

shining thirumEni sowndharyam, I do not seek anything

else.

[how long like this- if you are asking]

Nirayam thoyyil kidakkilum- even if I am deep into the

scorching valleys of the hell OR

sOthi viNN- that ParamjyOthi – SrivaikuNtam- the ever

Blissful, most glowing and shining and resplendent

world [theLi visumbu ThirunaaDu]

sErilum- even if I reach there

nee- devareer – You

e aruL- should bless me only… for me to enjoy and have

acharya anubhavam alone…

seyyil dharippan- if you do that, then only will I

survive. Else, I will perish.

 

I need to be blessed by yourself to sin, enjoy the

most wonderful kalyANa guNAs of yours and the

beautiful ThirumEni of yours at all time and under all

circumstances. Please bless me the same.

 

Though NammaazhwAr blessed thousands of pasurams

[verses] on KaNNan showing KaNNan to us, his prime and

ardent sishya Sri Madhurakavi AzhwAr declared that he

would not want or know anyone other than his acharyan

Sri Satakopa [swami Nammazhwar]. kaNNinun

chiRuthaambinaal … thenkurhoor nambhi enRakkaal

aNNikkum amudhooRum en naavukkE.

 

For him just by mere utterance of Satakopa name is

sweetening. Similarly for me – Thiruvarangatthu

amudhanAr, Swami Ramanuja alone is what is endearing

and sweetening. My desire is to enjoy only his kalyANa

guNAs. He is like the cool, dense dark clouds and is

hence impartial and so merciful.
