[Dhim]

Hi,

If you could please post a list of Kshetreyya padams relating to each ashtanyika, and include the lyrics meaning and an audio clip it would be great! I am plannning on doing a performance on Kshetreyya's Nayikas and your help would be amazing!!!! Thank you!

Your best bet is to refer to a book titled Muvvgopala Padavali by B.Rajinikanta Rao. It has a large number of Kshetrayya's padams with meaning for each You should be able to find it in a library Chennai (if you are there). The book is out of print now.

Hi Lakshman,

I am actually in Australia, and therefore is there another way of getting my hands on this book. E.g. Maybe on the internet?

Hi All,

Lakshman, Thanks for your help in giving the name of the book. Exciting news! I believe I have found a PDF version online , it might not be the same book but it is written by B. Rajinikanta Rao and has translations to many of the Kshetreyya Padams. I will post the link here. Hopefully this helps you!

The book that you found on this website is about Kshetrayya. It may have a limited number of songs. The one I was referring to has 160 songs - lyrics in Telugu and English with meanings.
