The composer, while being a Thamizh Christian and Thamizh scholar, was well-versed in colloquial Thamizh which at his time was heavily sprinkled with Sanskrit words in the literary and musical circles. Accordingly his kritis are replete with Sanskritized Thamizh words. One can make general sense out of them even if one is not familiar with the meaning of the words per se. As was his intent, the composer wrote his devotional poems addressed to a generic god without naming the religious denomination. The composer wrote his thoughts as expressions of poetry. Several musicians set them to carnatic tunes having seen the beauty of the thought expressed in them.Here Samjay did present a good recital. Loved the Charanam for its poetic excellence.........n for the rendition! I should say...I am so much exhilarated today by this keerthanam alone....
Madan Menon Sir, I salute you for articulating so well your astute analysis, insight and awareness pertaining to the composer and the composition as also why an open-minded musician like SS would have taken it up for an enthused rendition 🙏
Vedanayakam Pillay's kritis are replete with Sanskritized Thamizh words. While his poems were accepted by vocalists who set music appreciated the beauty of his thoughts. It seems that few vocalists have sung this in Bilahari too! They would have liked the udava-sampurna ragam that does not contain madhyamam or nishadham in the ascending while Kakali nishadham and shuddha madhyamam included in descending scale! n N2 as an external note .

கருணாலய நிதியே
பல்லவி
கருணாலய நிதியே - தினமும் உன்
சரணாம்புயம் கதியே (கருணா)
அநுபல்லவி
சர்வபே தவிநோ தகாரண
பரமசா தகபவ நிவாரண (கருணா)
சரணங்கள்
நிதம் வெளுக்க…..வெளுக்க வெண் தூசு
நிமிஷந்தோறும்………….நிறையுமே மாசு
அதுபோல் என்தன்……….அகமுறும் ஆசு
அகலவே உன்…………….அருள் ஒளி வீச
அகிலகோடி…………………..விசாலகற்பித
சகலஜீவதயாள……………………….அற்புத (கருணா)
இங்கென் செய்கைகள்…யாவும் நிகிர்ஷ்டம்
எனக்குப் புண்ணியம்…..என்றும் அநிஷ்டம்
பங்கம் தீர்க்கில்…..உனக்குண்டோ கஷ்டம்
பரமனேயருளாயோ……………உத்கிரிஷ்டம்
பாரமாகவே…………………பண்ணும் பாதகம்
தீரவே நீசெய்வை……………………..சாதகம் (கருணா)
அமலபாஷ்கரா……………….கோடிசொரூபா
அகண்ட சச்சிதானந்த………………பிரதாபா
நிமலவேத…………………..வேதாந்த நிரூபா
நிர்விகற்ப………………………வரஞ்சன தீபா
நீதபூரண…………………………நிலயமஞ்சித
வேதநாயகன்……………………இதயரஞ்சித (கருணா)
Thanks for the liriks mangala
