Ninna putta putta kaalige
putta gejje haaki
kayalli etthi muddu madidaga
manasalli ukki baro aa preetina
yava mathalli helali
nanna kanda?
That was something I could best express in Kannada - a language I associate with my emotions sometimes...
The feeling of seeing the little one dance around the house in those anklets brought to me a song I had long forgotten this morning...rendered so beautifully in Pt.Bhimsen Joshi's voice.
The wordings are amazing...I get lost in lines where he sings "Gejje kalgala Dhvaniya thorutha hejjeya mele hejjeya nittutha...."
and he praises her as "venkataramanana bhinkada rani..." Enjoy!
