Who am I to comment on TNS Mama Rendition Simply Enjoy the Rendition ! Azhaga Azhaga Raga Suddha Dhanyasi Kanda Chapu Talam Ambujam Krishna Krithi Are Gods beautiful? According to the great poets and songwriters of India, Gods are indeed beautiful. We even come across hymns and prayers from ancient times which describe the beauty of the Gods in extravagant terms. But why do Gods need to be beautiful? This bothers me somewhat, especially in the climate of today where there is an obsession over beauty. I would like to think of Gods as being compassionate, loving, just, generous and forgiving. In comparison, beauty seems to be such an inessential quality!

I came before you after a lot of walking,
Would you not give the shade of your feet to me, Oh Lord?
Oh Lord Narayana, hearing your fame, I came with lot of desire,
Would you not hear my appeal?

Would you not with your hand of protection remove my pains?
To me who always sing about you and salute you,
Would you not open your coral mouth and say “Do not be afraid”?

With the bee of my mind singing your praise,
And want to become one with your chest praised by the Vedas.
