Ananda Natanam
Ragam: Hamsanandi
Adi Talam
Composer: Thara Natarajan
Language: Tamil
Ananda Natanam, is a song that describes a dancing peacock. The Bhakta sees the peacock dancing and asks what the reason is for this joyous dance. Do you dance because you saw lord Muruga? Because the Deer eyed Valli stroked you on her lap? Because goddess Parvati glanced your way? Or is it because Lord Muruga sat upon you? What is the reason for this beautiful joyous dance?
