Could anyone give lyrics of this song?

If notation is more or less standard between different bANis, notation will be preferred too, if available.

The chittaswarams for this song are very nice. Sri. SubbarAya ShAstri seems to be a master at producing some awesome chittaswaras. The chitta swaras for Sankari Neeve in Begada are one of a kind ( hope I am attributing this to SubbarAya ShAstri correctly ) and that was my previous reference point to this composer and this Mukhari one is right up there.

janani niNuvina- Reethi Gowlai also has an excellent c.swaram.

Thanks vs_manjunath. Yes, I forgot about janani niNuvina. Another gem from SubbarAya ShAstri. I guess his Chitta swarams are one of his specialties and what a specialist he is! I am now on an expedition to listen to his other compositions!

There is another composition in thodi, that too has nice c.swaram(popularised by DKP).
Straightaway I am unable to write the name of the composition from memory. ( i think it starts like nANu brochutaku.... ). This is a Commercial Cassette of DKP( 3 Cassettes Pack) released by Sri Krishna Gana Sabha few years back.

Emanine is one that many people have sung: Apart from the ones mentioned here, there are Nedunuri and Ramnad versions floating around (they being my favourites, wanted to bring them in!). This fact - many different types of musicians singing a song - itself lends a sheen to a song. The c.swaram has the SRSNDPDS, with the catusrati dhaivatam in the descent in almost versions.

Adding Sri. Govindan's link to this song. He provides translations and commentary: http://thyagaraja-vaibhavam.blogspot.co ... -raga.html

Thanks Narayan on the info about D2 being used in that descent ( D1 is normally predominant in descent )

In addition, Rama Ravi is quoted here, http://www.carnatica.net/newsletter/muk ... letter.htm, "The passage Ri-Sa-ni-dha-pa in the Chittaswara portion of the kriti ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‹Å“Emani neÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢ is an illustration for Orikkai type"

What is Orikkai and how is that applied here for Ri-Sa-ni-dha-pa ?

Orikkai is a variety of the gamaka called kurula, oddukkal being the other sub-species of kurula..

In orikkai, one plays/ sings more than one swara while apparently standing at one swara..

if the notation R S N D P is sung R(g)S(r)N(s)D(n)P(d) ; it is termed orikkai..

This is from vidya's english vewrsion of the SSP..

Thanks Keerthi. I will have to see if I can spot that kind of execution in the various recordings of this song we have.
