Vyathayariyikkan Vazhiyariyate
The bhajans tonight were:
Ambadi Kanna
Vyathayariyikkan
Namami Kalike
Asa Nasikkattora
Tiruvadi Tedi
Pahi Pahi Devi
Oh Mind Become Surrendered
Om Namah Shivaya
Karunatankatamizhi
Ambe Jagadambe
I do not remember hearing mother sing the song Vyathayariyikkan very often. A very deeply touching song from way back:
Not knowing how to communicate my grief, heart-broken, I remain
If Thy all-seeing eyes fall on me with compassion, that shall be my refuge
Thy twin eyes radiate countless rays of auspiciousness,
Will not a tiny wave among them caress my body, O Mother?
Bewildered, my mind is restless, the body collapsing,
But for thy grace, O Mother, I see nothing else for support
Remember if You forsake me, my life shall be in vain, Mother,
Am I not worthy to seek refuge at Thy Lotus Feet?
