Can anyone please give me lyrics and word to word meaning of a Pada Varnam in Ranjani Raga in Tamil. The composer is Sri Madurai Muralidharan. It starts with Simhavaini Sri Rajeshwari Emmai Yadari Tandava Mohini. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

Lakshman, I remember there being more lyrics. C goes something like, "omkara nada maya rupini nataraja manohari".

Yes, it does seem incomplete. Maybe someone else can fill in the missing words. Thanks.

To Lakshman Sir:

Thank you for responding to my query. Only thing I know is that there is a cd by Sri Madurai Muralidharan, whose composition it is, which has this varnam. I personally do not know of any links to the song. I do not know if that helps.

Namaskara,

Hope you guys can help. The above song is titled incorrectly, however this is Simhavahini set to Ranjani Raga.
