Pallavi:
yArO ivar yArO enna pErO ariyEnE (yArO)
Anupallavi:
kArulAvum shIrulAvum mithilaiyil kannimADam tannil munnE ninravar (yArO)
caraNam:
candra bimba mukha malarAlE ennai tAnE pArkkirAr orukkAlE
anda nALil tondam pOlE urugirAr inda nALil vandu sEvai tarugirAr (yArO)
Meaning: (Courtesy: P R Ramachander)
This krithi is said to be a description of Goddess SitA’s reaction on seeing Lord Ram for the first time. {there is an alternative
narrative suggesting that it is the other way, of Lord Ram seeing SiTA for the first time !}
P: Who (“yArO”) ? Who is he (“ivar yArO”) ? What is his name (“enna pErO”) ? , I do not know (“ariyEnE”).
A: All the people in the earth (“kArulAvum”) and heaven (“shIrulAvum”),
Stood before me in (“munnE ninravar”) the maid’s quarters (“kannimADam tannil”) in Mithila (“mithilaiyil”).
C3: With his Moon like (“candra bimba”) flower of a face (“mukha malarAlE”),
He is glancing at me (“pArkkirAr”) only (“ennai tAnE”), right?
Possibly it is due to our past connection (“orukkAlE
anda nALil tondam pOlE urugirAr”), that he is serving me & giving me darshan now (“inda nALil vandu sEvai tarugirAr”).
