raMgOli hADu - rangOli song in kannaDa
Mrs Lakshmi Devi once said that rangOli had its origin from the words ranga and oli,
meaning ranga's favour or blessing. The following song originated from this.
I am reasonably good in writing Telugu poems and songs. Though Kannada is my mother
tongue, my proficiency in these aspects is very limited. Please keep this in mind.
raMgA bEga bArO - SrI | Ranga, why do you tarry
raMgA olidu bArO | Ranga, why don't you favour me
raMginATa nODa bArO - ee | Come hither to watch the play of colours
raMgOliya nODa bArO | Come hither to see my rangOlis
udayasUryana beLaku geluvu | The splendour of the rising sun
hRdayakamala daLagaLa cheluvu | the beauty of the lotus-heart petals
nadiya nIrina alegaLa suLuvu | The easy flow of the river waves
ide nODO ee raMgOliyalli | They are all here in this rangOli
- raMgA bEga bArO | Ranga, why do you tarry
baMgArada kaDDiyO idu | This is like a golden wire
SRMgArada baLLiyO idu | This is like the creeper of Love
kaMgaLige habbavO idu | This is like a feast to the eyes
niMgAgi (ninagAgi) baredihenO | I have drawn this for you only
- raMgA bEga bArO | Ranga, why do you tarry
beraLu hADuva gItegaLivu | These are the songs of the finger
sarasahRdayada mAtugaLivu | These are the words from a filled heart
varavanIDuva varalakshmiyoDane | Along with the bestowing consort of yours
varada mOhana raMga bArO | Come hither, the great giver and handsome Ranga
- raMgA bEga bArO | Ranga, why do you tarry
Regards! - mOhana
