Trinity Of Carnatic Music-3shyama Shastri Poem by Indira Renganathan

Gladdened to gladden us
Replete with your holy songfulness
Gracious Her mercy personated the mentor
Sangeethaswamy to tutor you in music..
Persistent Bangaru Kamakshi Persistent
All through the ancestral genres
At last to making of a golden maestro


Herself the cadre of your musical spate
In your ecstasy exulted Navarathna Malika
Challenged Kesavayya challenged to flee
Soon enough succored 'Devi brova samayamide'
Chintamani's plea verbalized ere when humbly
Gemming Bhairavi, Todi, Yadukulakambodhi
Shyama's sangeet galore..swarajati-Ratnatryam


Metering mastery, mastered speciality
Manifold artistry in tala quality
Kamakshi's glistening is your capacity
So such of rare ragas in rarity, rhythmicity
Guru, so much of your Shyamakrishna's brilliancy
Me lacking much and not brainy
'Be blessed'..my wish..may I into your musicality..
