Nataraja 1 - The Dynamic Dancer Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon
Nataraja 1 - The Dynamic Dancer
Nataraja -The dynamic dancer,
The pulse that sets the beat,
The measured mathematical monitor,
Taal- the accurate rhythm that sets the pace.
Tat -dhit-tom-nam -Taka-dhit-tom-nam-
Tom-dhit-tom-nam - Nam-dhit-tom-nam
Tat dhit -Taka dhit-Tom dhit- Nam-dhit-
Tadhimginnatom - Tadhimginnatom - Tadhimginnatom.
Nataraja - the splendorous dancer,
Divine and distinguished,
Atop the Himalayan heights,
Dances, with timeless - boundless energy
Movements so vibrant,
Even Nature stands still - so astounded!
Leaps and lounges,
Slides and stamps,
So loud! The Mother Earth vibrates with joy!
Nataraja -The rhythmic wonder of life,
The pulse that sets the beat,
The measured mathematical monitor,
Taal- the accurate rhyme that sets the pace.
Taal- the accurate rhythm that sets the pace.
Tat -dhit-tom-nam -Taka-dhit-tom-nam-
Tom-dhit-tom-nam - Nam-dhit-tom-nam
Tat dhit -Taka dhit-Tom dhit- Nam-dhit-
Tadhimginnatom - Tadhimginnatom - Tadhimginnatom.

As we start reading this poem, we feel the dance being enacted by Natraja Himself 'with timeless - boundless energy'. This cosmic dance is backed by mathematical precision appearing and disappearing at will. This is a phenomenal addition to the spiritual literature as well as aesthetics. Many many thanks for the poem, Geeta ji. He is the dancer, the dance and the audience, He is the actor, the director and the theatre!
