Hey... you are welcome and all the best for your singing attempt. Trust and hope it would go well !
ReplyDeleteHey Good one.... just a thought... if you could also add the meaning for the lyrics, would help those who do not know the language but like the song....
ReplyDeleteNick.
Hey Nick.,
ReplyDeleteI have done the translation with lot of fear in my mind. Pls enjoy.
Thanks a lott sir.. am grateful
DeleteI liked M.S. Subbulakshmi's rendering of this song very much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwS20UsiYnU. thanks for sharing the meaning!
DeleteHi, I am a hedge fund manager based in mumbai. Thanks a million for this translation. Warm regards, Karthik
ReplyDeleteThank you. You are most welcome to mail me to discuss markets too !
ReplyDeletehey vijay,
ReplyDeletethanks for the lyrics.The english translation is a great effort. But nothing like being able to understand the original which thankfully I do.What really strikes me about the song is the expression that lies behind the line "kurai ondrum illai"...its like monalisa's smile. Check out amma herself singing it. This video never fails to bring tears into my eyes.
http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=cKdHPCw3K9c
By the way I belong to the rare species of a hyperactive intraday trader + traditional indian mom and house wife who is superlatively religious and loves good music.... :)
This is an ardent devotee of Lord Venkatewara!My devotion cannot be expressed in words.I say Venkatesa suprabatham from June 13th 1969!!!!I also say other songs of the Lord.Another of my favourite one is "Govinda Namavali"I will not be able to say the feelings I go through when I recite this.But when my daughter (who again is another crazy devotee of the Lord)sent me this song sung by MS,I realised this was more emotional than anything in the world. I know it is quite late that I came to know the lyrics but as they say "better late than never".And can you believe when I first heard the song 15 days ago tears wouldn't stop and I could see myself non stop sobbing!From then on I never stopped singing (actually reciting) the song so many times and everytime tears flowing non stop!!!!!Such is the power of the lyrics,especially if you have experienced connectivity with Lord Venkatewara!!!!!!!BTW,I noticed I am replying to Skanda's mom,and I am Skanda's grandma!!!!!!
DeleteHi Skanda's Ma...
ReplyDeleteYes, there is nothing equal to original ! I just tried to fill up some gap for addictive listeners.
I envy your profile of multitasker! Do email me when you learn something good about stock markets.
Thank you for the lyrics..do u have lyrics for kaatrinile varum geetham ..if so can you please let me know..thanx a ton...good work keep it up..
ReplyDeleteSithara., you are welcome. Do come back for kaatriniley lyrics. it would be posted by sunday night.
ReplyDeleteHi VijayGanesh,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the translation. I have been looking for clear lyrics for learning this song.
listening to this song gives so much peace and happiness. MS is divine !
thank you for the lyrics.
ReplyDeletei like this song very much.

ReplyDeletehello sir my name is ashish thanks a milion to u sir for the lyrics,,actually i wanted the notations [sa,re,ga,......]for this song and even for raghu vamshasudha and broche va
ReplyDeleteu can also email it to me to : ashishparthan@gmail.com
Hi Ganesh
ReplyDeleteThanks for uploading the Lyrics for this song. What a beautiful song. Do they sing this song at any temples or got to be only at Krishna temples?
Regards
Sella
Sella., it is a song which has got another 1000 year of life. It is used for all occassions.
ReplyDeleteHello Mr. Vijay,
ReplyDeleteI stumbled upon your website when I was searching for the lyrics after listening to the song in Youtube. Great work and I really look forward if you can post lyrics in "THAMIZH" version as well.
I personally feel that this particular song has got endless life...:) May God Bless !!
Cheers
Shamala
Hi Shamala., welcome and do come back. Your request is fulfilled.
ReplyDeleteListening to this eternal song by Amma moistens the eyes, always. Seeing the lyrics (in Tamil) for the first time, made me cry! Many Thanks, Vijay!!
ReplyDeleteThanx you Chellappan. I am touched.
ReplyDeleteThank yo very much for these lyrics... Its such a beautiful song... can you pl post lyrics and english meanings for sri chakra raja simhasa rupini...
ReplyDeleteEvery time I hear this song, I feel so moved by the words and the emotion with which MS sang it. It is one of my favorite songs and I always wanted to learn the lyrics.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for posting the lyrics.
Best wishes,
Narendar
Chicago, USA
Hi: I have tried to get the meaning from some of my tamil friends, they did not have a clue. They also behaved like it is nothing great and appeared disgusted to my dismay. But then I can understand, educated does not mean learned. Also, there is a prejudice against Mrs. Subbulakshmi, my favorite by the way, which makes some act strange.
ReplyDeleteALL I WANTED TO SAY WAS THANKS FOR TAKING TIME TO POST THE MEANING.
"marai odum gnaniyar mattumaey kaanbaar" - You can be seen only by vedic scholars. This is about Krishna who lived and loved the illiterate (cow herds) Gopis and Gopikas. The beauty of MS voice is what makes you forget this and feel elated.
Deletehttp://www.scribd.com/doc/3734602/kurai-ondrum-illai
ReplyDeleteCheck the link out for tamil lyrics! Not sure why the diff in some words - which one is correct ? dont have enuf time to research
one word "nindru irukka" was incorrect by me, second one was silly "yedhu" that is changed now. thanx.
ReplyDeleteToo much pathos in this song. Wrenches the heart. Just heard it as well. Thanks for sending the meanings Ganesh.

ReplyDeleteWow, every time I try to sing this song, there is a tear in my eyes. At the same time, when I close my eyes, my soul goes to a magical spiritual land. Goosebumps everywhere now.
ReplyDeleteGood Job. Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteDear Ganesh S,
ReplyDeleteWas searching for a long time for the meanings (actually word to word meaning) of this, katrinile varun geetham, and three filmi songs-poova eduttu, ponn manasu aazamendru and mayil pole ponnu ondu......can you direct me to any resource please?
I infact asked for it in a blogpost of mine :)
http://drbr1976.blogspot.com/search/label/Tamil
If you are interested, I would like to start a group where people interested in sangeeta, saahitya and bhaasha can share gems of their own language with other langauge rasikas.....care to join? as much as you can as fast or slow as you can...just to enjoy?
If interested pl mail me on rush2raghu@gmail.com
Thanks a lot for the meaning
BTW marai moorthy or malay moorthy? my tamil friend thought malai moorthy meant god of hills (statue of hills/stone literally)...can you clarify please?
Marai moorthi < the God is not front of us but watching to us < Hidden God... he is in big pillar & small dust also.....
ReplyDeleteMalai Moorthy < Venkatachalapathi, Thirupati < he is sitting over the hill...... with seven hills........ and famously with shortly Hill God... not stone....
Honestly none of the Maraiyars have told the exact meaning. Everyone talks about this great worship song buy without knowing the true meaning. I believe the great CR Achari would know as he was the creator of this song.
DeleteThank u..may God bless u..
ReplyDeletethank u a lot...
ReplyDeleteAwesome song that makes me feel lost in the devotion and grace of the Lord....the translation is very good and is so blisfull. I have been listening to the song for years but never had undertood the meaning since im not knowing the language. From now on when ever i listen to the song/sing it, i will be aware of what the song means and it gives me more stronger experience of my devotion to the god.
ReplyDeletegod bless you for posting the meaning
Thanks for the meanings in English, Ive been listening to this song from three days though I did not understand the meaning. But I feel better now. And by the way, I am actually listening to same song music composed by stephen devassy, its really cool. But I dont know if MSS has sung this one too
ReplyDelete-santosh
Thanks for the translation and lyrics as well, I was searching for a long time.
ReplyDeleteSathish Kumar
Hi, thank you so much for the lyrics. I appreciate the time you have taken to share them with us. Do you happen to know the lyrics for Aathi muthal Nallil and Oru tharam Saravana Bhavan .. which MS sang. They are wonderful songs.
ReplyDeleteNo Renuka. I don't have the lyrics for the two songs you had mentioned.
ReplyDeleteHi vijay,This is madhan from andhra pradesh, I like this song very much, MS Amma sang beautifully..........Actually I dont know Tamil, but I like this song very much, Superb song. After knowing the Meaning i am wordlessssssssss.Thank you very much for posting the meaning.
ReplyDeleteHi,

Bhanu

i heard in astrology another lady who going to be the next generation of ms.subalakshmi . is the letter started V. and ends in A
going to be the next ms. subu... tis is really true true true and god promise....
wow! good song !
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for lyrics with meaning. I am Canadian Tamil...and I love to sing this song, but never understood all the words and full depth of its meaning. Now there will be much more true devotion when I sing this tune and lyrics.
ReplyDeleteI love this song. Thank you for posting the meaning. Its a beautiful poem that is intoxicating....
ReplyDeleteGod bless you for your effort!
ReplyDeleteHello sir! I've immediately become an instant fan of your blog! Thanks for the beautiful lyrics & English translation! :)
ReplyDeleteReally thanks a lot for your work sir... Great job... Thanks again for the lyrics
ReplyDeleteYou are blessed to translate it, I am blessed to understand it.I am a malayalee , I thought the composer complains to Krishna that "I have no "kurai"(deficiency) as I have enough poverty,illness,enemity etc".My imagination further lead me to more expansions like"No,no,don't give me more troubles,I am having enough of them"!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sir, your precious translation prevented my wild guesses! Thanks a lot!
thnxx a lot fr the lyrics of the wonderful song... I would like you to upload the lyrics (with meaning) of the song Udupiya Knadeera Udupiya krishnana Kandeera too?? I am eagerly waiting...
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on the great job of translation. It was much needed for people like me who love the song but are unaware of the meaning. Now it surely adds a new dimension when I listen to this song the next time.
ReplyDeleteTranslation helped me a lot since I dont understand Tamil !
ReplyDeleteI can able to sing with Bhaava :)
Excellent .It took me Heavan.while readind i enjoyed with full of BLISS.thank u.
ReplyDeleteThough originally I am tamilian but because born n brought up in Gujarat our Tamil was just limited to what we conversed at home. Do not understand bookish or poetic Tamil. I have these songs imprinted in memory as grown up listening to ms songs. Now married to mahatashtrian so no scope of learning the meaning. Was looking for the meanings of these songs so could listen with heartfelt feelings. Aah. Thank you so much. Am going to learn this song to sing and that will be a gift to my Amma. Thank you so much!!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Saroja.
"Un maarbil Ethum thara nirkum karunai kadal Annai" - He is filled with the ocean of kindness...which is ready to give anything without asking ...not Mahalakshmi, i believe
ReplyDeleteThank you for this. I have used yours and a few other translations online to come up with this
ReplyDeleteNothing is lacking, wise Krishna
I have no problems, Govinda
Unseen by the eye you are standing, Kanna
But though I cannot see you,
I do not feel your absence, knowledgeable Krishna
You give me all I need Lord Venkatesha
I want nothing more, Lord of the veda
Manivanna (lord of gems), Malayappa (lord of the hills),
Govinda (friend of cows), Govinda
Behind the curtain you stand, Kanna
Through the screen only the learned can see you
Still I have no objection Kanna
On top of a hill like a stone you stand, giver of boons
No complaint have I dear lord of wisdom
Manivanna , Malayappa, Govinda, Govinda
For this Kaliyuga you have descended into a stone
And stand as an idol in a temple, Kesava
But I have no worries, wise Kanna
Nobody can forget, Malayappa, within your chest
To give anything is standing, an ocean of mercy, mother,
Lasting forever, what more can I want
No grievance have I, Marai Moorthy Kanna
Manivanna , Malayappa, Govinda, Govinda

The Malaiyappa (God of hills),
When the mother who is an ocean of sympathy,
Who is ever ready to give anything,
Lives in your heart,
Nothing is a problem
Maraimoorthy kanna (God of vedhas, The Kannaa).
Please see if this translation is helpful.. Thankyou for your wonderful work. You are blessed to be able to touch so many lives.
thank you aparna.
ReplyDeleteThe soul in Tamil is not translatable to English.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your endeavour
Thanks to these lyrics, an impromptu request to sing this at a saralaya sksters concert was accepted! They don't know Tamil but have learnt from MS's daughter and have also had private sessions with her .so they did full justice to this piece. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI have read that this song was written by Rajaji after he lost his son. The powerful lyrics suggest that. And then Rajaji requested M.S to sing it and she accepted. The song has since been a great rendition of all times.
ReplyDeleteInteresting ! thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteKurai ondrum illaye Kannaa. .
ReplyDeleteDear Vijay Ganesh Subramanian, I am Prakasha, from Mysore city, Karnataka state.You are really doing a very good job by translating these types of songs composed by Rajaji and Sung by great souls including M.S. Subbalakshmi.I was really mesmerised by the lyrics when I first heard this song or bhajan whatever you call it a few years ago for the first time.Today morning,I was listening to this song once again by the God's grace and few lines at the end,i could not understand it properly. So I thought of searching the lyrics and translation of this song. And I found your Blog. Ganesh, you are really a blessed soul and that's why you are doing this type of job. You are like a light. And inturn lightening up the whole world. At this moment,I am remembering one hindi song sung by Mukesh - Joth se joth jagathe chalo..... I think in the same way you are also lightening up this world in one way or other.Today only I came to know about your website/ blog and I don't know much about you and your works. But I can straight away tell you that you are a blessed soul & you are doing a great job. Please continue..... At the same time, whenever you are free, you please mail me These types of songs whether it is in any language either in tamil or telugu etc.,along with its meanings.One more my personal request for you is that you please send the song or bhajan lyrics in English only. Because I am still learning these languages.PLEASE MAIL ME AT THE EARLIEST WITHOUT FAIL.In this song,they also called GOD as MARAIMURTY KANNA.That is true because, God is sitting behind the screen and watching everyone's activity and every activity of this world.In general,he definitely knows what is happening in this world eventhough he is sitting behind the screen or sitting by closing his or her eyes. He verywell knows what to do with everyone's life based on their deeds or Karmas. In the same way, you are also sitting somewhere and you are giving life once again to people like us by your work ie., writing lyrics and translation of rare songs and bhajans and giving the same to this world through internet.
ReplyDeleteI thank you once again for your work and May GOD bless you.....
thank you for the kind words :)
DeleteHari om
ReplyDeleteThis song chanting is very alluring ,which i grew up hearing from my father's recorded sony player and he would recite and play the song every day and we kids learnt by heart not knowing the meaning till date its emotional like meeting my father(we fondly called him Anna) thanks a lot for this revelation and efforts appreciated immensely keep doing tjis VG🙏
