The Carrier of Sapta Swaras !
Lovely Song about Katakali
Actors are the two legends of Kerala Cinema, Prem Nazeer and Sree Vidya.
Manipravala Thalakal Unarnoo
Manassil kamala dalangal vithirnoo
Kavya Kalayude kanakamgulikalil
Kathakali Mudrakal Vidarnoo !
Manipravala ......................
Verses equalling Ruby ( Mani ) and Coral ( Pravala )
And lotus blossomed in Mind !
From the great Art of Poetry
Rose the Mudras of the King of all Arts ( Kathakali )
Sharat kala megham Thirasselayayi
Sasiklaa Kali vilakkayee
Onnayi Varriyarum
Irayimman Thapiyum
Varna narayangal minukkee
The clouds of Sharath
Became curtain for the play
Moon became the Lamp
Both Variar and Thampi became one
Giving finishing touches to costumes !
Pampayum Periyarum
Bharata puzhayum
Aa padangal paadi
Chaitra marangal aadee !
Chendayil thengilayil
Elathalangil Syamantakangal kilingee
The rivers of Kerala
Bharata puzha, Pampa and Periyar
Sang those beautiful verses
And the trees of Chaitra danced !
Manipravala .....................
Damayantiyayi Droupadiyayi
Devayaniyayee
Kairali Rathiyay Sathiyay
Rambhayay Radhayay
Raasa Natanam Aadi !
As Damayanti, Droupadi
And as Devayani
Magnificent Kerala rose
As Rathi, as Sathi
As Rambha and Radha
She danced the Blissful Dance !
Ratnakireedavumayi Thiranottam Nadathi
Rasa Chakravarthiyam Sringaram..
Manipravala .......................

Madhura Ashtakam
Madhurashtakam, Adharam Madhuram
Here the poet, Vallabha, is playing on the double meaning of the word
Madhura. Madhura is the place of Lord Krishna and it means sweet also !
Adharam Madhuram Vadanam Madhuram Nayanam Madhuram Hasitam Madhuram |
Hrdayam Madhuram Gamanam Madhuram Madhura-Adhipater-Akhilam Madhuram ||1||
Sweet are Thy Lips
And thy face too
Glorious Thine eyes
Also Thy Smile
Thy Heart, Thy going
Sweet indeed are They
O Lord of Madhura !
