mella mellane. rAgA: mOhana. Adi tALA. Composer: Pdasa

P:
mella mellane bandane gOpyamma kELe mella mellane bandane

A:
mella mellane bandu gallakke muddu koTTu nillade Odi pOda kaLLage buddhi pELe

C1:
hAlu mAralu pOdare ninnaya kanda kAligaDDava kaTTida
hAla sunkava bEDi kOlanne aDDa kaTTi shAleya seLakoNDu hELadODida krSNa

C2:
mosara mAralu pOdare ninnaya kanda hesarEnendele kELida
hasanAda heNNa mEle kusumava tandikki shashimukhiyarigella basiru mADidanIta

C3:
hOgire rangayyana mEle nIvu dUrEnu koNDubandire
yOgIsha purandara viTTala rAyana tUgi pADire bEga nAgavENiyarella

Meaning: This song is in the form of a conversation between gopikas and Yashoda. In the pallavi and charaNas 1 &2, some of the gopika girls are complaining about KrSNas pranks, and in the last charaNa, yaSOda denies all the allegations saying he is just a baby.

pallavi: He came tip-toed. Listen, oh mother of gOpikas, he came tip-toed
anupallavi: You take to task, that prankster who came in tip-toed, kissed my cheek and ran away

charana 1: When I went to the market to sell milk, your son comes in the way and stope me and asks for milk tax! Keeps a stick as a hurdle, and pulls my saree and runs away!

charana 2: When I went to sell curd, your son stops me asking my name! He brings flowers to this beautiful maiden, and got those moon-faced girls pregnant

charana 3: (Yashoda) Oh girls, how could you bring these complaints against my little rangayya? All of you now sing and swing my little son who is none other than the lord of all yogis, purandara viTThala himself.

-Ramakriya

ramakriya,
thanks for the meaning.

does 'basiru' mean pregnant ?
i wonder how this fits the context.

drshrikaanth · Post by **drshrikaanth** » 16 Mar 2007, 13:29

basiru means pregnant/womb. Thats how the song is and it fits the context fine. There are many songs with such meanings and contexts- some more explicit even
