One of my dad's favourite padyas from Daasharadhi shatakam. Written by the great Poet and devotee of Lord Sri Rama, Shri Ramadasu
Muppuna kaala kinkarulu mungita vachchina vela,
rogamul gopparamainacho kaphamu kuththika nindina vela,
Baandhavul gappina vela,
mee smarana galguno galgado naati kippude,
Tappaka chetu mee bhajana... daasaradhi karunaa payonidhi.
When death's messengers arrive at my doorstep,
When in disease phlegm fills my throat,
When I am deserted by my relatives,
I may not be able to recite your name,
So let me sing your hymns now.. Hey! Son of Dasaradha! An ocean of compassion!
