Did I tread any short cut beseeching much discrimination-less people ? Please protect me. Whether it is much comfort or troubles , was I grief stricken ? among my peers , whether You treat me well (literally immerse in milk) or abandon me (literally drown in water), Your holy feet alone are my refuge, O Lord praised by this tyagaraja ( Meaning courtesy: Thyagaraja Vaibhavam) --------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER : These songs have been uploaded for hearing pleasure only and as an archive for Carnatic music.
