Bhagavad Sri Annamacarya’s Kirtanamulu / kirtans
Ekkadi manusha janmamu bettina palame unnadi
This is one of the superb yet very down to earth kirtans written by Sriman Annamacarya for the people like me who are not perfect but still desiring to serve the lord . I am such a poor soul that I am not very sincere and not giving my best to be sincere as well. I can’t use words like ‘people like me’ as I genuinely feel it will be almost impossible to find an another person like me . So kindly accept my heartfelt and genuine appologies in advance for usings phrases like this .Whenever I feel very bad , I think of this kirtan and sing it for Him , my divine Lord Sri Krsna, requesting him to accept a imperfect soul like me ..
The speciality of Sriman Annamacarya’s kirtans are , they are not written to express his feelings but the common people like me. He was very kind and considerate that he wrote this beautiful kirtan for even a soul like me to pour my heart out unto the lotus feet of Sri Krsna .
You can hear this soul stirring kirtanam sung by various singers on Internet or YouTube and learn it as well. I hope this lyrics given here may be of some little help if you need the lyrics of this beautiful song.
Note :- I have heard that this is actually a beautiful composition written by Sri Pedda Tirumalacharya, the elder son of Annamacharya who followed his father’s line in composing songs for Sri venkatachalapathy.
