Greetings to all our friends on this ‘PONGAL’ festival.

Here is a composition by Shri Purandaradasaru. Song is about LORD KRISHNA; though he was small kid,
Made many miracles as child prodigy.

Lyric follows:

tALa: Adi/aTTa
rachane: shri puraMdaradAsaru

Meaning of the song:

How small is your child (eMthA saNNavane) your son (ninna maga) (eMtha saNNavane)
there is none like your child (ivanaMthavarillavu)
destroyer of demons (hoMtakAri) strongest of strong persons (balavaMtharigadhikanu)

though small kid (taraLanaMtippa) plays with young women (taraLeyaroDanADuva)
Lifts (ettidava) the mountain (giriyanu) on his nail (ugurinali) of small finger (kiru beraLu)

Killed serpent (sarpana) KALINGA (kAliMga) by his foot (kAlalli tuLidava)
ran away (palAyanava mADi) and burnt (suTTava) KALAYAVANA (kAlayavanana)

Mythological episode of 'kAlayavana' described here:

He opened (teredanalle) HIS mouth (bAyi) and frieghtened you (nInaMjuvaMdadi)

I found another caraNa of this song.

nicca pAvana mADi Ashcarya tOrida yandaccu mADuvirendu muccikombella nI

[Sudarshan C R]

Dear Lakshmanji, thanks for reminding of this charana.

Correct charaNa is here:

kichchu pAnava mADi Achchari tOrida
rachche mADuvireMdu muchchikoMbuviyalle

Meaning:

Lord Krishna surprised (achchari tOrida) them by swallowing (pAnava mADi) the forest-fire (kichchu)
Thinking that these people will make (mADuvireMdu) tatter (rachche) of this news,
GOPI, you are avoding (muchchikoMbuviyalle).

Here is the story on KRISHNA swallowing the fire:

Listen to the same song with this charaNa:

Thanks Sudarshan for the corrections.

Here is a composition by Shri Kanakadasaru.
Even the God YAMA advised his servants not to touch devotees/servants of Murahara.

Lyric follows:

rAga: dhanyAsi
tALa: chApu
rachane: shrI kanakadAsaru

muTTabEDi muTTabEDi muraharana dAsaranu /pa/

bEsarade shrIhariya dhyAnadoLage ippavara
vAsukishayana kAgi neleyAdi kEshavana
dAsara dAsara dAsaneMteMbuvara /3/

Meaning of the song:

God YAMA (yama) gave instructions (kaTTu mADidanaMte) to his (tanna) servants (dUtarige)
Not to touch (muTTabEDi muTTabEDi) the servants (dAsaranu) of MURAHARA (muraharana)

Mark made on fore-head and other 11 places of the body (pUrNa dvAdasha nAma)
with white-clay (tirumaNNu) and turmeric/sandal paste (shrIchUrNa)

More details on dvAdasha nAma:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srivai..._Urdhva_Pundra

wearing (ippavara) the garland of basil (siri tuLasi) and
forest-flowers (vanamAle) around their neck (koraLinoLage)
Great people (mahAtmaranu) who have completed (mADida) the pilgrimage (yAtreyanu)
of TIRUPATHI (tirupatiya) and obtained the
blessings by receiving tIrtha/prasadam (tIrtha prasadakkoLagAdavara)
and chanting tirumaMtra (tirumaMtra - different names of Almighty)

More details on tirumaMtra:
http://www.siththarkal.info/2013/05/...chaakkara.html

Let him be poor-man (baDavanAgali avanu) or richest (ballidanU Agali)
May be idiot (kaDumUrkha) or even criminal/sinner (ghOra pAtakiyAgali)
God YAMA ordered his servants (yama tanna dUtarige) not to touch (goDave bEDeMda)
those people who are chanting/praising (biDade koMDADuvara)
Lord Madhava (mAdhavana) now and then (nuDinuDige)

People who will chant (vAkyavanu paThisuvara) the name 'vAsudEva' (vAsudEva eMba) oftenly
who are in (ippavara) meditation (dhyAnadoLage) of SHRIHARI (shrIhariya)
in their boredom (bEsarade)
who will say that he is the least servant of (dAsara dAsara dAsaneMteMbuvara)
Kaginele Adikeshava (kAginele AdikEshavana) who sleeps on serpent (vAsuki shayana)
