Meaning of the song:

Hey Ghanashyama, I am ruined
Hey Panduranga, lead me to the right path

Joyful life is leading towards destruction

tears of sorrow (shOkada nIru) is mixed with the waves (ale)

Woman (nAri) wants to enjoy actual life

Hey Jagadeesha, show (me) patronage

[RAGHAVENDRA]

Dear Rajesh & Sudharsan,
Just happened to visit this thread and was delighted to see so many songs in Kannada brought to limelight by you two. My sincere appreciations. Pls keep going.
There are a few songs in Kannada which are my all time favourites. One among them is from the film Eredu Kanasu (pls check if it is right), the song "Endendu .. naa niralaare" by PBS and S Janaki. One of the best songs in Kannada. Another one is from the film Subamangala, beginning with "subamangala, subamuhurthave". Can you upload the links to these songs.
Another one is the song by Saint Raghavendra, "indu enage govinda" featuring in the film Manthraalaya Mahaatmiyam, wherein Dr. Rajkumar plays Sri Raghavendra.

Thank you,
Raghavendran.

[Sudarshan C R]

Thank you very much Shri Raghavendran. Keep watching this forum and also Indian Classical Music forum (Kannada) for the songs you mentioned.

Here is a song seems to be comedy but making you thoughtful.
The actor appearing on the screen singing
this song is Comedian(hAsyachakravarti) Shri Narasimharaju,
by appearance itself used to bring laugh to the viewers.
Most of the songs of shri Narasimharaju were sung by
Shri Pithapuram Nageshvara Rao.

Lyric follows:

citra: caMdrakumAra (1963)
gAyana: pIThApuraM nAgEshvara rAv
saMgIta: Ti calapati rAv /eM. veMkaTarAju
sAhitya: es ke karIMKAn

Meaning of the song:

(Calling) brahmadEva (Creator)... and asking him..
Brahmadeva, have you written the fate/destiny (haNe baraha)
without knowledge.
Fate is going reverse/turnabout (tirugu murugu)

from soil you creat human
you create a mind for that human
in that mind you fill hundreds of desires
when desires are deceiving
failed life receives thrashing (tadukuvAga)
if you search for the remaining
find only sorrow (viraha) and nothing else

woman (heNNu) gold/jewel (honnu) soil (maNNu)
Thirst(dAha) for the above three
followed by affection/love (mOha)
pierced through(tUritalla) the eyes showing mark/sign (kuruha)
for the sake of woman (heNNigAgi)
we came in hardship (bhaMgapaTTu) leaving (our) state
what a destiny, life became a distress
what is our fate

citra: muriyada mane (1964)
gAyana: pi bi shrInivAs/pi susheela/rAghava
saMgIta: vijayakRuShNamurti
sAhitya: ku rA sItArAma shAstri

taurUra nUru noga tammana haNa koLaga..

mAnada AbharaNa marvAde hore cinna
mAdariya varasAmya sAlade namma
nEgila yOgi hirime sAladE
nEgila yOgi hirime sAlade /kEdige/

Meaning of the song:

(kEdige is screw pine leaf, tALe hUvu (yellow colour with fragrance)
Botonical name is Pandamus odoratissimus, kEtaki - Sanskrit)

pine leaf-flower (kEdige-tALe hU) in the hair (muDidu) with affectionate (Adarada)
smile (nage miDidu) on the face
mallige (lady addressed as jasmine flower) uttering (suriva) your words (mAtu)
are like pearls (muttu)
what wealth (siri) have you brought (hEri taMde) here (illige)?
mind is like flower(hUvaMtha mana), charector is like Mango-fruit (mAvaMtha guNa)
which one you want (bEke)
chennayya (name) do you want unfaded (mAsada) beauty (celuvu)
you can request (bEDayya) your desires (bayake) with open minded (bAytuMba)

Bride’s parents (taurUra) may be rich (nUru noga)
Bridegroom’s brother (tammana) may have lot of money (haNa koLaga)
if you bring them (taMdu mane tuMbidare), it only decorates (aMdavO) the house (mane)
Those won't give respect (marvAde), honour (mAna)

Humming was folk words sung by Shri Raghava

Ornament (AbharaNa) of honour (mAnada), gold (hore cinna)
of respect (marvAde) is best
our ideal(mAdari) pair (varasAmya)is it not enough (sAlade)
ploughing peasant’s(nEgila yOgi) greatness (hirime)is it not enough (sAlade)

[Sudarshan C R]

Here is an interesting song from the film ‘muriyada mane’ by Smt. P Susheela. Though the husband is a limping person (Rajkumar), wife (Jayanthi) is very much happy with his well behave, harmless, and good character. The song narrates the same.

Lyric goes here:

citra: muriyada mane (1964)
gAyana: pi sushIla
saMgIta: vijayakRuShNamUrti
sAhitya: ku rA sItArAma shAstri

aMda ceMdavEtake aMtaraMga daivake

O... O...
nele illadenna
olisikoMDa cennA
ninna bALinA neraLe nALenA..
dhaNi ninna sEve sadA gaidu bALve /aMda/

Meaning of the song:

why charm(aMda) and beauty (ceMda)
for my God (aMtaraMga daiva)
charector(guNa) is sweet like honey (jEninaMte)
matured (mAgide) mind(manasu) with sweetness (inisu)
of mango fruit (mAvaMte)

whole life (iDI bALve)
is not a lovely play (celuvinATavalla)
(we are) together (oMdugUDire) with fondness (olavu mUDire)
It is the holy place (puNya lOka) and my place of heaven (nAka)

I was homeless (nele illadenna)
Persuaded (olisikoMDa) me handsome (cenna)
I will be with you (ninna bAlina) through out my life like shadow (neraLu)
Master (dhaNi), I will serve (sEve) you always (sadA)

O child who will lookafter(gati yAru) in future
