YUDDHAM THYAJATHA ! RENOUNCE WAR !
MAITREEM BHAJATHA ! CULTIVATE FRIENDSHIP !
These were the lines which was part of the song composed by Sri Mahaperiyava. Periyava composed this song way back in 1966 when Smt M.S. Subbulakshmi Amma was invited by the United Nations for her Carnatic Music Concert.
In the present situation of the aggression by Russia on Ukraine we pray to Sri Mahaperiyava let the peace prevail soon and normalcy returns in UKRAINE.
maitreem bhajata akhila hrit jaitreem
– cultivate friendship which will conquer all hearts
aatmavad eva paraan api pashyata
- look upon others as you would see yourself
yuddham tyajata, spardhaam tyajata
– renounce war, forswear competition
tyajata pareshva kramama-akramanam
– give up aggression on others which is wrong
janani prithivi kaama dughaaste
– the Earth is our mother who grants us all our desires
janako devah: sakala dayaaluh:
- the Lord is our father, who is compassionate to all
daamyata, datta, dayadhvam janataa
– practice self control, charity and be compassionate
shreyo bhuyat sakala janaanaam
– let there be prosperity for all the people of the world
