Padumnabha Paramapurusha

When I was learning this geetham, padumanabha paramapurusha ,which is in Malahari Ragam,composed by Purandhara Das garu,I felt proud singing the swaram.The composition is so beautiful.Later when I understood the meaning of geetham,I realised why these composers are treated as God.This geetham is praising Lord Rama ,describing with beautiful adjectives ,nouns and we can see Purandara das ability in composing ,with this small example.Praising ,describing ,praying Lord Rama doesn't have suitable composition than this.I will put forward some of the word's meanings,not all in the below.

Ragam-Malahari

Pallavi : Padumanabha paramapurusha Paramjyothi swaroopa

paduma is lotus , nabha is navel

Vidhuravandhya vimalacharitha vihamgadhi rohana

vandhya is the one who destroys ,vimala -charitha is pure stories :)

Anupallavi :Udathi niwasa uragashayana unnathonnatha mahima
yadukulothama yagna rakshaka ,yagna sikshaka rama nama

sikshaka is preach

Charanam : Vibhishanapalaka namo namo Ibha varadayaka namo namo
Shubhaprada sumanorada surendra manoranjana abhinava purandara vithala bhallare rama nama

subhaprada is good fortune,manoranjana is cheerfulness

Padumanabha paramapurusha
