Pallavi
Ragi Tandiro Bhikshake Ragi Tandiro
Bhogyaragi Yogyaragi Bhagyavantaragi Nivu
Charanam 1 :
Annadanava Maduvaragi Anna Chatra Vanittavaragi
Anya Varteya Bittavaragi Anudina Bhajaneya Maduvaragi (Ragi)
Charanam 2 :
Guru Gala Seveye Maduvaragi Gurutige Bahoranthavaragi
Kare Kare Samsarava Nitavaragi Purandara Vittalana Seviparag
In this song PurandaraDasa explains how one should live. But in a very charming way he has played with the word "Ragi". He starts off the song with the common day to day meaning of the word and wakes you up with a jolt with very different uses of that word. He uses it a number of times.
Sri Purandara Dasa seeks to provide peace of mind to all the people. His ambition is to build a healthy society .
RAgi ta.ndIra, bhikshake rAgi ya tandirya' ('Will you gave me just ragi? I want only that' -
