lyrics

nanda bAlam
rAgam: rAgamAlika (yamunA kalyANi, kApi)
tALam: mishra cApu
vAggEyakAra (composer): rAghav vAmarAju
bhASha (language): Sanskrit (saMskRtam)

shlOkam - from gIta gOvindam, prathamaH sargaH (Chapter 1), shlOkam 3 (Verse 3), written by jayadEva kavi:
yadi hari-smaraNE sarasam manO
yadi vilAsa-kalAsu kutUhalam
madhura-kOmala-kAnta-padAvalIm
shRNu tadA jayadEva-sarasvatIm

kRti:
pallavi (yamunA kalyANi)
nanda bAlam bhajarE nanda bAlam

anupallavi (yamunA kalyANi)
sundara hAsa daram
kunda radanam, amalam
aravinda daLa nayanam
gOvindam, gOpAlam

caraNam (kApi)
ramA kaLatram anisham
rAmam, taraNi kulEsham
kAmAdi durguNa rahitam
rAmam, karuNA bharitam



Meaning (shlOkam):
If, in the remembrance of Hari (Vishnu/Krishna), your mind is pleased;
If his skill in amorous play interests you;
Then listen to the sweet, soft, lovely verses of Jayadeva's words.

Meaning (kRti):
Worship the son of Nanda (Krishna)!

He with the beautiful smile like a conch (in shape)!
He with teeth like jasmine (in color); he without blemish!
He with eyes like lotus petals (in shape)!
Govinda, the protector of cows!

He who is the husband of Ramaa (Lakshmi), always!
Rama; the lord of the Sun-clan!
He who is devoid of bad qualities such as lust!
Rama; he who is filled with compassion!


Notes:
This kRti is composed on both Lord Krishna and Lord Rama. The Pallavi and Anupallavi are dedicated to Krishna, and the Charanam is dedicated to Rama.
