Prabhakar,
Just beautiful  so serene Sindhu bhairavi after the scintillating Mohanam.  Thanks a lot for sharing.

regards
Mani

Hi Usha

I just heard the slOka again and can say that it is one about tyAgarAja by his famous disciple Walajpet Venkataramana Bhagavatar.

The lyrics (copied from a discussion on Rasika.org) are the following.

vyAsO naigama charchaya mrudugira valmIka janmAmunihi

vairAgyE s'ukayEvacha bhakti vishayE prahlAda yEva swayam

brahmA nArada apratimayOh sangIta sAhityayOh

yO rAmamrutapAna nirjita s'ivastam tyAgarAjam bhajE

Here the disciple is equating tyAgarAja to various great personalities in various dimensions. Some that I can recognize are:

In naigamas (part of vEdas), T is like vyAsa
In soft language- vAlmIki 
In vairAgya - Suka 
In bhakti- prahlAda
In sangIta sAhitya - nArada
In relishing the rAma nAma - Siva 

All: Please correct me I went wrong in my interpolations!

Regards 
Prabhakar
