Sri Rama Navami - with songs

Let us celebrate Sri Rama Navami with some songs.

Rama-janana sarga is recited at noon (when he was born) and also pattabhisheka sarga. In Andhra, Sitaramakalyanam is performed with pomp on the same day. In north, its Ramacharitamanas parayan and bhajans.


Telugu:

This is a song describing Rama's birth by Sri Prayaga Rangadasa(maternal grandpa of Balamuralikrishna). Chaitra Suddha Navami, Karkataka lagna, Punarvasu Nakshatra etc.

There are some on Sita. Especially by Sri. Tyagaraja.

Ma Janaki ni

Here Tyagaraja says to Rama that he became a king because he married Sita(Ma means 'our' in telugu and Lakshmi in Sanskrit). Since he married Lakshmi, he got all the glory and riches including the title 'Ravanari'

Sitamma Mayamma (Sita is my mother and Rama is my father. Tyagaraja's mother's name was Seetamma and father's was Ramabrahmam. So 2 meanings). It also describes who are his relatives. Lakshmana, Hanuman, Bharata are his brothers and all bhaktas starting with Prahlada are his relatives.

Nanubrovamani cheppave( Ramadasu is requesting Sita to tell his case to Rama and protect him. This when she is alone with him in their room, in their private moments).
