yOchana - durbAru - Adi In this kriti Tyagaraja asks Rama why He was hesitating to protect him. He gives the example of Sugreeva whose kingdom was restored with the help of Rama. He requests him not to test him any more. P yOchanA kamala lOchanA nanu brOva || Why hesitation to protect me, O lotus eyed Rama. AP soochana teliya ka norula yAchana jEtu nanuchu neeku tOchenA dyuti vijitAyuta vi rOchana nannu brOva ninka || Do you think I seek other Gods' help. You have the brilliance of ten thousand Suns, Please protect me. C kEchana nija bhakta nichaya pApa vi mOchana gala birudella koni na nnE chanA? krita vipina chara varAbhi shEchana tyAgarAja poojita || You have the reputation of pardoning the sins of your devotees. You helped Sugreeva by restoring his kingdom. Is this justice, Oh Lord that is worshipped by Tyagaraja?
