Raghavendra Guru Rayara Sevisiro – Lyrics

As requested by Raghavendran, here are the lyrics for yet another famous song on our Rayaru. As always. the lyrics in Kannada, and followed by English.

Composer : ಶ್ರೀ ಶ್ರೀದ ವಿಠ್ಠಲ ದಾಸರು 

ರಾಘವೇಂದ್ರ ಗುರು ರಾಯರ ಸೇವಿಸಿರೋ ಸೌಖ್ಯದಿ ಜೀವಿಸಿರೋ ॥ಪ॥
ತುಂಗಾತೀರದಿ ರಘುರಾಮನ ಪೂಜಿಪರೋ ನರಸಿಂಘನ ಭಜಕರೋ ॥ಅಪ॥

ಶ್ರೀ ಸುಧೀಂದ್ರ ಕರ ಸರೋಜ ಸಂಜಾತ ಜಗದೊಳಗೆ ಪುನೀತ
ದಶರಥಿಯ ದಾಸತ್ವವ ತಾ ವಹಿಸಿ ದುರ್ಮತಿಗಳ ಜಯಿಸಿ
ಈ ಸಮೀರ ಮತ ಸಂಸ್ಥಾಪಕರಾಗಿ ನಿಂದಕರನು ನೀಗಿ
ಭೂಸುರರಿಗೆ ಸಂಸೇವ್ಯ ಸದಾಚರಣೀ ಕಂಗೊಳಿಸುವ ಕರುಣಿ ॥೧॥

ಕುಂದದ ವರ ಮಂತ್ರಾಲಯದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಕರೆದಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಬರುವ
ಬೃಂದಾವನಗತ ಮೃತ್ತಿಕೆ ಜಲಪಾನ ಮುಕುತಿಗೆ ಸೋಪಾನ
ಸಂದರುಶನಮಾತ್ರದಲಿ ಮಹಾತಾಪ ಬಡಿದೋಡಿಸಲಾಪ
ಮಂದಭಾಗ್ಯರಿಗೆ ದೊರೆಯದು ಇವರ ಸೇವಾ ಶರಣರ ಸಂಜೀವಾ ॥೨॥

ಶ್ರೀದ ವಿಠಲನ ಸನ್ನಿಧಾನ ಪಾತ್ರ ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತಿಸಲು ಮಾತ್ರ
ಮೋದ ಪಡಿಸುತಿಹ ತಾನಿಹಪರದಲ್ಲಿ ಈತಗೆ ಸರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ
ಮೇದಿನಿಯೊಳಗಿನ್ನರಸಲು ನಾ ಕಾಣೆ ಪುಸಿಯಲ್ಲಾಣೆ
ಪಾದಸ್ಮರಣೆಯ ಮಾಡದವನೆ ಪಾಪಿ ನಾ ಪೇಳುವೆ ಸ್ಥಾಪಿ ॥೩॥

Raghavendra Guru Rayara sevisiro soukyadi jivisiro ||pa||

tungatheeradi raghuramana poojiparo narasinghana bhajakaro ||ap||

sree sudheendra kara saroja sanjata jagadolage punitA
dasharatiya dasatvava ta vahisi durmatigala jayisi
ee sameera mata samstApakarAgi nindakaranu neegi
busurarige samsevya sadacharanee kangolisuva karuni ||1||

kundada vara mantralayadalliruva
karadallige baruva brindavanagata mrittike jalapAna mukutige sopAna

    Hi meera,
    I posted a comment on ur blog about ekadashi & when I did it my intentions were purely based on the quest for proper information & knowledge, I was just looking 2 hear from somebody who obviously knows more about it than I do.In response i saw a comment 4m another visitor who seems 2 have made judgements about my intentions without even having a clue of who I am..All I can say is he is prejudiced & ASSUMES a lot. To top it all,he generalizes the situation.Nevertheless thanks to u for telling me that u would post the info. “Moodamathi” definetely appreciates it.. 🙂 [sorry I cud not help it]

    Respected mam/madam,
    I am Ragavendran.. I dont know the procedure to follow on Ekadashi..
    But I know that one of the powerful procedure is to follow with true bhakti wholeheartedly. Our beloved.Rayaru will not be happy if the faith is blind as he himself spoken these words on the day of his brindavana pravesha.. Of course I dont know about your bhakti.. I am telling this as my general opinion.. we pray to god only to fulfil our desires.. But we must not..

    As guru stotra says, We must pray to god for himself.. i.e Without Expecting anything from him.. What does car, Money or house or any other royal life is going to do for us? These are all temporary.. We are not going to take all these with us when our life ends..
    Once again i am not just pointing you, This is my advice for all of us including myself..
    if any of these words hurts you, Sorry for it..
    But These words are 200% a true fact..

    OM SRI RAGHAVENDRAYA NAMAHA !!!
