-==================================================
Notes –
Variations –
1 – manavinAlakinca – manavAlakinca – manavyAlakinca : 'manavAlakinca' is wrong. As 'manavinAlakinca' is given in all the books, the other version 'manavyAlakinca' – sung by many musicians - is considered an interpolation.
2– rAdaTE – aTE is an intensive form of addressing a woman, particularly wife. SrI tyAgarAja addresses his mind in feminine form in many kRtis. The same feminine form is used again in the anupallavi ‘telpedanE’.
3 – rAma candruni –SrI rAma candruni.
4 – karma kANDa – reference to verses of SrImad-bhagavad-gItA, Chapter 2, verses 42 to 44.
5 – AkRshTulai – attracted – attracted by the promise of heavenly enjoyments.
6 – kanipincinADE naData – exemplified by His conduct. SrI rAma is called maryAda purushOttama – please visit the website for a discourse of paramAcArya on SrI rAma –
maryAda purushOttama
