Kripaya Palaya / Charukesi / Misrachap / Swathi Thirunal/ T V Sankaranarayanan

Krithi: Kripaya Palaya Saure Ragam: Charukesi Thalam: Misrachap Composer: Swathi Thirunal Vocal: T V Sankaranarayanan Sankaranarayanan was born in Mayiladuturai of Thanjavur district in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu on 7th March 1945. His father, Vembu Iyer, was a disciple of vocalist Madurai Mani Iyer; his mother was Mani Iyer's sister. At age nine, he started learning music from his uncle. Sankaranarayanan also learned from his father. He made his debut on the concert platform in 1968 and then gradually established himself as a Carnatic vocalist. He has performed in India and abroad. He was particularly noted for easily reaching the upper notes. TVS was awarded the Madras Music Academy's Sangeetha Kalanidhi in 2003. His music was an unreserved waterfall. It kept pouring down with no drought in sight. Much like how we cannot track the trajectory of every falling droplet, never knew how his raga passages or swara torrents would move. On 2nd September 2022, we lost one of its most graceful musicians.

You are the embodiment of compassion, the one who removes suffering caused by sins and impurities. You are adorned with a golden crown, worshipped by groups of celestial beings.Your feet, which rest on the beautiful lotus, remove the pride of even great beings.You delight in pure devotion.You fulfill all the desires of those who serve you with equanimity and you have captivating, love-filled glances. Your gentle smile shines like the whiteness of jasmine flowers and your brilliance is celebrated by the great divine beings and devotees. You are the celestial Mandara mountain that supports those who surrender at your feet.Your divine body radiates a beauty that surpasses even Cupid's. Grant me well-being and bliss.Your teeth shine like bright red rubies.You are the supreme boat that helps us cross the endless ocean of worldly existence.Your divine deeds are sung by Narada and other great sages.O Lord, please destroy all my accumulated sins. -------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER : These songs have been uploaded for hearing pleasure only and as an archive for Carnatic music.
